Wow- he keeps getting around the Pcar on the outside...or maybe the P driver is afraid of him!

The 356 is pretty tail-happy, isn't it.

Also interesting - if that's an MG we're in, he's keeping up with them easily, pretty smooth, and then he pulls them both on the straight. Could he be in a different engine class? 2L vs. 1600's?

I think the Driver of the P car wanted to get his car to the line in one piece. He was definately pulling by the Alfa on the straight. THe Alfa was getting terrible runs out of the corners due to the defensive lines he was holding... although defensive might not be the right word for that driver.?.? LOL!!!

I thougt I was watching Australian Touring cars!!

I had one of those crappy 356's beat one time in my '72 BGT until I popped a hole in a piston I guess I should have been paying attention to my tach!
