Something to warm the heart on a cold winter day.

For those of you who have not seen it. Watch this old race in black and white and see if you can sit still. All those high HP expensive cars in there even a LeMans winner. :laugh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l50Ip9SzLNs

One has 26,000 pounds worth of silly modifications... The other is actually worth 26,000 pounds...............

Yeah, the FE is built for this, the other (whatever it is) wasn't built to DO anything (except maybe impress chicks? the shallow ones at least). Not a fair fight at all, I feel sorry for those poor young punks. Healey is what, 100hp over stock and light as a feather. Poor ignorant youth (I have a feeling they could care less).

still think it was rigged - whatever else, the newer car has oomph and suspension that BE's just don't - modified BE though. at the very least a straight line would have changed it. still prefer the BE though (of course)

this one came up alongside the first video
