Thanks Bob!1  Brought back memories of watching GP and F1 racing on a black and white TV with my dad. I like the Italian Prancing Horse - but I really dug the Ford GTs and the Chapparals from the late 60's, and they were cooler looking as Hot Wheels when racing on the living room rug!

Neat.
My GP love goes way back to Jimmy Clark, etc. My first Pine Wood Derby car was a Sprinter, second a BRM!

What an excellent set of shots!
Brings back memories, back in the 70s there was a video called "Rendezvous".  It was shot from the passenger seat of a Ferrari.  It was done as a one time shot cruising through Paris in the early daylight hours of the AM.  The route was from somebody's apartment to a "meeting" on the steps of Notre Dame Cathedral.  Man what a ride, all the way through the gears in and around the Arche de Triomphe.  Dodging pedestrians, buses, and trash trucks!
I've lost the only copy I had of it.  Sure would be nice if it still existed somewhere.

That was interesting, I only counted 16 RED lights he ran!!

I guess he was running late for a hot date.

Yeah man!  That's it!

When I originally saw it, it was explained it was shot on a one-shot basis, do or die.  It was about June, 3-4 AM in Paris. Night time is very short in near the summer solstice!
He is supposedly in for a hot date, that's his girl friend at the end.

Thanks, Bob.  This link goes in the archieves!
