God. drat.

I don't care if they were the "killer b's", I still mourn for the loss of this racing series. Can we bring back Can-Am while we're at it?

Yeah, I think a racing series that had a pretty small displacement limit, like 500cc or something, and some tests for safety (and maybe a regulation that knocks off points for injuries to the drivers) but was otherwise open would be awesome. You would see some real engineering going on in that kind of racing series.

There might be more on there, but these are what I could find.

Gotta love the 962 at the end of the Porsche one.

That was a RUF Yellowbird at the end.

Well, I didn't mean the very end, but I remember seeing it on TV and they had the Dauer (sp?) 962 near the end.

Edit: it's at 54:37

V8 versions, turbo Cosworth versions and dear God, they have a AWD version!

Thanks, but I meant info on what kind of performance that particular car had. The rear view out of it almost looked like the flip side of that "elise vs veyron" video.

Jesus. If that was the only place I had to park, I'd go rent a jackhammer and go to town.

Again, cant find on Youtube. But worth it for Colin McRae

I keep seeing tributes to him, but how did he die? Was it one of those sideways off into a tree type of things?

Was that cart driver spinning out because he just wanted to make it a close finish, or what?

These are really not getting enough love. The two films of laps at Le Mans are pretty much insane, and that 908 is like a closed-top R10 (it's a diesel too).

Haha. I can just see them hiring people with anger issues for this job.

I thought it was odd that these peoople weren't wearing helmets (from what I noticed).
