Talking Rear view mirror surprise

Thanks to Brian Keith Smith (my DE instructor at VIR in April) here's a fun snippet of video. Shot from Brian's in-car camera during a red (?) run group session. You know what they say - check those mirrors occasionally just in case somebody wants to pass!

BTW, Brian's 82 Euro 930 is a rockin' car!

The video is 13m MPEG. Enjoy

HOLY ****E !!

Imagine having the moolah to run a 962 as a weekend track car !! That's the dog's boŁŁocks !!!

Mind you..... if you weren't just messing about then I reckon you could've had him through the inside of that right-left chicane

That thing had some incredible speed coming down the back straight. When I got to the end of the back straight (4/5 of a mile long), the 962 was just entering the straight. By the time I made it back to turn 1, I had to pull over and let him by.

Incredible.
