It must have been awesome to have the money to go racing back in these days. Crazy to see the refuelling practices!

Really enjoyed that, thanks for posting. Loved seeing my local, and favourite, track Oulton Park in the first few minutes. Seeing the differences in safety measures then is  quite the eye opener, and some of the comments in that commentary would get you sacked from the BBC these days!

I like the way you could park right next to the track!  I wouldn't be standing on the outside of a corner to spectate though.
