Yeah I know its not a Healey but for all you race types out there check this lap of the Isle of man TT course in a 2015 Subaru rally car . Incredible in car camera . The spectators could literally reach out and touch the car . Driver heart rate up to 160 beats/min .
Crank the sound go full screen and enjoy . Incredible 19mins of intensity you wont see anywhere else . :smile-new:https://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20140702-the-best-onboard-footage-ever

Make sure your seat belts are tight !!!!!!!

I am unable to view the video link as it states its not available to viewers in the UK.

I assume its the footage of Mark Higgins when he lost control at 150mph but managed to keep control of the car. Outstanding car control. The passenger was a foreign press member, I dont think they realised how close they came to a huge accident.

He is 3 time British rally champion and his brother David is the current USA rally champion. David lives a few doors away in the same village as me here in Wales.

Its a complete lap of the TT course with all the telemetry. When you mentioned the near crash video, I went looking for it, and my goodness that is a bit of a heart pounding moment!!!

It's well worth searching for. I will try and post a link later.

Nope this is a full lap this year . The near miss video you are thinking of is from 2011 ...I think .

Great vid. These guys are crazy. But if you want to see the certifiably insane, you need to see the bike guys doing 200 mph on the same route. Talk about titanium balls (skip to 4:16 if you want to see the helmet cam. Makes 160 mph in the Subie look like pottering along a country lane):
