Or even 800 kilometres, eh?

He didn't make the chicane so he deserves third place. I think one more lap & the Ford's drum brakes won't have kept the GTA at bay.

@@carmiethompson2676 ...but he couldn't make the chicane as alongside there was a sliding giant roadsweeper ushering him off the circuit. Forza Alfa!

Galaxies are superb to watch, but that Alpha and driver were the most truly well paired human/machine on the track. Pure confidence and brute force attacks, in straights and corners. Carmie- rules are rules, and rules are made to accommodate the mannerisms of all vehicles, just like we do in society, with all people...Big fat obnoxious American cars have equal rights. I am doing my part to build another, although it will not be for racing, but more of a tribute to it's entertainment value

@@email4664 I had no question about the rules. If a driver isn't on the track, said driver can't hold a higher position. That is what Mr. Hart did. He didn't let up, was on the grass & not qualified for the 2nd place position. But like I was asking Mr. McRae, I tried to find the 'part 2' race results & couldn't find any. Only found the results for part 1. I wonder what happened?

@@carmiethompson2676 From the Goodwood site: 1 Shepherd 2 Hart 3 Fisken The marshalls will have looked at it I'm sure- even the commentators were not clear how this would be ruled. Thing is there is more than one rule comes into play in this scenario- sure, there is the 'gaining unfair advantage' from missing out the chicane. Hard to ignore the 'fully alongside' rule though. Hart was on the grass because he had been deprived of the ability to stay on track due to the fat Ford consuming all of the track width- ie not making any allowance for the Giulia by staying on the power and drifting ever wider. The Alfa's had established through both races that they could take that wide line but stay within track limits and take the chicane... Suppose it was judged that the final track positions reflected a fairer outcome than swapping 2 and 3.

Superb skills behind the wheel. He pushed that Alfa to the absolute limit!

It would be really spicy if some Japanese cars were in this as well, Datsun 1600's, 1200's & 240z's as well as Mazda rx3's and rx2's

like an elephant in a china shop.

@@brenden8783 The cutoff date for participation at the Revival is 1966, as that was the last year Goodwood was an official race circuit.

Thank you. I was wondering about this.

What's up with the red Galaxie crashing into the Lotus and spinning it out??? Seemed like a real dickweed move. He didn't get penalized or anything?

Anyone can beat a 1600 CC 4 cylinder car in a 7000 CC V8.

@@UberLummox Each driver takes their own risks, and the Alpha driver knew the bigger Ford would have more slide in the curve, but he shot for it anyhow- That is stone cold confidence, and knowing the absolute sheer limit of one's car. Both driver's were RACING the heck out of the cars they drove, and the Ford had no way of going anywhere other than where it went- Pure momentum, post-apex. It happens. The physics of it, as well as the clear Gentelmen's nature of this NON-American form of racing, force one to just assume that these two drivers had a convivial laugh over the matter once the cameras were put away. The fact that no penalty was given means that the experts weighed all of the details, and observations, and made their decision. Are you one of those sad Americans that doubt every electoral decision? Hope not...

@@hendrikdebruin4012 You do realize this track has tight corners?

@@hendrikdebruin4012 depends on the track tbf

you pathetic hater🖕

@@351clevelandmodifiedmotor4 I'm pretty sure you have totally misinterpreted what I said. I enjoy the banter between big and little cars. One without the other would not be as interesting.✌

And, that Alfa sounded glorious, on song, as they say in the UK.

But in reality David had the advantage 🤣

Other than the red Galaxy being so on the edge it forced two cars off the track to keep a place so it could drag race down the straight. In a longer race the Galaxy would be toast on tires.

Yes, and for me was Galaxies 1st and 2nd. Then an Alfa at 3rd, but that was a camaraderie event, not a real competition...

On the 63, the emblem on the grill is the hood release.

Imagine a full grid of 35 to 40 of these 7 liter cars going by at 180 mph. That's what made NASCAR so popular in the US, with Chevrolet, Plymouth, Mercury, Pontiac, Dodge, all making competitors for the Ford. It was like a category 2 earthquake, in the grandstands, when the green flag came out!

@@richsackett3423 (Bonnet release), for our British friends, who allow this to happen, for us to see.

With lights on

Very big gazelle in this case 😂

… rather an elephant

@@studiocalder818 iis phosphorescent effect of feline eyes

And, in America, the Barracuda, based on the COMPACT Plymouth Valiant, was one of smallest, of American race cars!

@@ramblerdave1339 The announcer called it a "big heavy car". It's the same size as a Falcon. I just wish they showed the damn thing racing!

@@UberLummox That's what I was implying, because of what the Announcer said. 😎

@@UberLummox I too was disappointed that we didn't see the Barracuda at all. Surely there was some interesting place-fighting in the rear of the pack also?

@@furyfantoo Right!

You are right. Unbearable that an excellent car theoretically born for the track like the current Giulia Gta is never seen on the track

hater, keep watching these so called row boats destroy most of the competition Alfa's get smoked most of the time

Ja, es ist ein Jag E-Typ ❤️‍🔥

he cheated and he needs a safety car or he gets left in the dust of the FORD galaxy

The Galaxies are 7000. The Alfas are 1600.

By the time the mk1 lotus cortina had just about reached its full development..the alfa had caught up in the homologation game..better suspension..15" wheels..very lightweight body...=.fast....

And, it wouldn't slow it down much!

You're actually not wrong. It literally could be done! They have almost the capacity as a 1/2-ton truck.

@@UberLummox They have to be, with room to seat 6, 200 pound Americans. That's 1200 pounds, and that's if they have no luggage! Which they won't, if they're just going out to get burgers. 🤣👍

@@ramblerdave1339 Yep! I know all about it. I'm a USA-er and own 2 '68 Furys, a '71 Imperial Coupe and a mid-size '62 Plym. Belvedere. I miss my old Alfa though. 🙂

@@UberLummox I have a major project, a '68 Javelin, built 343, Tremec 5sp, all coilover suspension, 4wheel discs, flared fenders, cowl induction. My Grandmother had a '53 Imperial hardtop, white over burgundy, burgundy leather. Wish I had that Hemi powered beauty ( hydro/electric vent windows!), or her follow up '57 Bel Air hardtop, or her '62 Dodge Lancer hardtop. I love those Alfas, GTA, or GTV, Have a framed print of Horst Kwech's 71 GTV, 2liter Trans Am Champion, on my living room wall. Also have had a Porsche 356, Super 90, Reutter body Cabriolet, wish I kept that! (worth about $200k more now, than when I sold it). 😭

It's a boat in comparison to the Lotus and Alfa

Any idea what it was powered by? 273 V8 or slant 6

@@hillbillysportsman5818 the barracuda in this race ? I dont know for sure 'but 273 I'd say..

I wonder what the rules are for engine size, presuming the Barracuda has an LAV8, there could be a lot of displacement put into it if the rules permit.

@@furyfantoo I'm pretty sure that class of racing requires the cars to have the same equipment they raced with in the 60's(except for radial tyres 'I would imagine). That barracuda will be a 273' probably with formula s spec's 'four barrel carb' four speed box' standard brakes ' I believe the formula s came with disc's on the front as did the 1966 valiant v8 that we had in Australia and New Zealand.

@@barrycuda3769 The little 273 could certainly be improved over the Formula S specs with some modern parts, but you are probably right that they must be period-correct. Would've like to see the 'big' Barracuda have a better showing, but there's no way to know if was due to the car or the driver.

Since it started competing against the Cooper S

The Plymouth Barracuda is big when it's in a race with cars which are all smaller (other than the Galaxie). The word also acknowledges "big" engine capacity in comparison to the British and European models of that era i.e. the ones it's racing against.

Now what is a Valliant Barracuda then 🤔🤔🤔

Beauty made sport

We are two

​@studiocalder818 Nun drei ☝️

Yes they should. Its period correct

I agree, you would think you at the horse races!!

He got pushed off the track

@@oldlud8971 No, not deliberately.

Yes, The red Galaxie should get 2nd. place; The Alfa was taking a big risk in trying to pass him on the outside and ran out of track.

@@raywest3834 Yeah but did you see how he NAILED that little Lotus Ford in the front fender knocking it in a circle? That was really fuct up.

That wouldn't be commensurate with history. The whole point is THESE cars raced each other back then. It is a fair race, and back in the day, the Fords mostly lost because they're just not nimble enough.

@@46wireboy Agreed, the fact that they stay neck-and neck is more that this track has no slow handling sections; it's pretty much wide open the whole way around which favours the big-HP cars.

That's how it was in period

That's how it was in the early 1960s....

It was actually pushed out

Did you watch the race? Duh. Twice the weight. And back in the day, the Cortinas were beating the big boats. Duh.

Didn't you see him crash into that Lotus Cortina and spin him out? Total dickweed move.

@@UberLummox Trying to pass the Galaxie on that corner wasn't very bright.

@@46wireboy They were practically side-by-side when he slammed him!!! If the old boy can't react quick enough to that, he shouldn't be there. I assume he's some wealthy guy that's in "high standing" there.....for lack of better words. Could be wrong, but wow that looked fuct.
