Fantastic stuff. Amazing what they had on the dash in the old times. The tube for hearing the pop up valve was really bizarre as Murray said.

this is the daunting collection of instruments
What? 2 gauges, a couple LCD readouts and a couple lights? That has less to look at than my 94 Civic. I wonder, if that is "daunting," then how would he describe today's F1 steering wheels?

Funny how times change... :)

Great vids Steve.

Was interesting to watch but poor sound made my head ache. The guys racing seemd to have some decent respect for each other as they were bloody close for some of the overtakes.

This shows me that too may overtakes makes a race dull - what do you think? It was too easy to pick up the draft and slingshot past the cars and with it every lap it reminded me of motorcycle club racing (that I race)

I want a go in one of those cars..... :mrgreen:

A relatively interesting video on piston production.

Those cars do look fun, I may look into doing something with the Skip Barber school someday. I didn't personally find the number of overtaking dull. I actually enjoyed seeing the mistakes they made and how the other drivers would capitalize. However, would I want to see this much overtaking in an F1 race? Probably not quite to that extreme...

If that's real I'll be overjoyed! Someone has actually gone and driven upside in a tunnel. Not like we imagined but still it has (or hasn't) been achieved.

They have not wasted any time to make use of the Schumacher marketing power. Note the special white helmet in the video. The official helmet will remain red. Message: You can have a red sports car with Schumacher image from Mercedes.
