Really nicely edited. Vic almost manages to lose it on the grass!

Yeah; in vintage racing we just tour around.

How do you normally do v the Lotus 7s? It looked like you all had then beat for top end speed but then they came zooming pass and almost disappeared!

Is hold up your right hand an acknowledgement that you have seen that a car is passing you on the right?

[Vic Skirmants]

No way to beat a Lotus 7; Many hundreds of pounds lighter, and not much less horsepower. The red and silver Lotus had a problem early on, then came right back.
My raised right hand was a "point by" to show him I saw him and it was safe to go by. You'd be shocked by how many of the slower cars have no clue when we are lapping them. Check the blue Sprite early on when Ron's yellow 356 passes him in the downhill esses. From Ron's car when he's behind the Sprite, all looks well; then looking back from Ron's front camera, you see the Sprite jerk the car to his left when he finally realizes he's being passed. We've had worse.
