Great '68 Le Mans video

Petrolicious put this on their site, it is worth watching, especially the beginning:

That '68 Le Mans video is wonderful stuff, Brian. Thanks for posting it. Seeing those vast stretches with no barriers whatsoever, then the sand berms on the outside of those corners sure brought back a lot of memories.

After watching it, I ran across this in the sidebar... another pleasant bit of nostagia with roadside repairs, spectators standing and sitting everywhere. I loves seeing the hats a lot of the guys made out of newspaper to keep the sun off their heads. Just zoom past all the interviews to get to the good parts because it is golden.

I know the soundtrack must have been dubbed, but sure comes across as legit... the wails of the Ferraris and the growls of the Porsches are music...

I have that 'Ferodo Presentation' in the archives. Outstanding.

Though first I've seen that Targa Florio of '65 flick. Sensory overload. Thanks for sharing!
