Most probably not doing this race. Family picnic this coming sunday unless weather spoils it.
Anyway, I prefer not to interfere the top three battling for the championship with an unnecessary crash in this narrow and dangerous track (still suffering from car wandering due to steering deadzone in the 60s F1s).

Ohh man, I too going to miss last race :o.
Some silly birthday thing someone decided to have on race night that I can not get out of.
Leading by 32 points, I need for Marcel and Rik to take each other out Big Grin.

Bad luck, man Sad. 75 points in game are way too many.

I'm not sharing with any one I will be in stealth mode for this final race Tongue

Great film here of the longford event back in the 60's, I seen this a while back and thoroughly recommend it.

Graham Hill and Bruce McLaren are there, maybe Brabham too I cannot recall. And I can remember a very lucky amateur who lost it on the brakes into the final corner in a Jag and walked away from it lol. The Pearly Gates must have been closed for stock taking that day!
