Hey guys,

how about we post onboard videos of full or partial laps of old classic tracks like the ones in GPL, especially tracks that aren't used anymore.

I'll start with a full onboard lap of Spa video that I came across today:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COpOuZEEDys&feature=grec

It appears the track in GPL is quote off in terms of layout.  :-\

It's a bit fragmented, but here's how to do it properly! ;)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx4Vi0T5Bko (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx4Vi0T5Bko)

Hristo I dont think that the Spa shown is the original track as raced in 67 , though some parts of it are unchanged a number of the corners were re profiled to suit modern traffic congestion (Spa was public roads )

Steve , Thats a great vid of Mike the Bike , strange to here him talk about the F1 cars moving around and sliding , I met him yeears ago In fact he bought me a pie and a pint in the bar at Oulton Park , he was having trouble getting good lap times cos he wasnt used to sliding the bike ( you didnt want the bike to slide in those days) all his senses were telling him not to slide the car , which was essential for a good lap time .

What a great bloke he was , very friendly ,no airs or graces , not a bit like some the stuck up f1 boys he was racing with at the time .
 

Yes, possibly THE Greatest motorcycle racer of all time. I've seen that clip of him talking about the horrible sliding cars that won't go in a straight line. Sounds like GPL doesn't it?

That's brilliant. So even back then the F1 car mob were stuck up posers compared to us down to earth biker types!! ;)

Interesting that he fancied his chances falling off his bike rather than crashing his car.

Probably true, except for the nutters at the IoM.  :P

He he, and he was one of those nutters too!!!

yeah great vid......The onboard camera is awesome, cant believe hes not wearing any gloves.lol

Also you have to remember that one of the greatest risks from a car crash in those days was burning alive! In fact Mike received the George Medal for pulling Clay Regazzoni from his burning car in the 1973 South African GP. Ironic that he should die in a car while on a run to get fish and chips when he hit a truck performing and illegal u-turn on a dual carriageway. The driver was fined £100, it's enough to make you spit!!!

I remember the day that happened! My Dad was gutted.  I only came to appreciate how good Mike Hailwood was years after.

I hadn't noticed the lack of gloves. For the onboard stuff I'd think it was all done a fairly sedate speed, considering the size of the camera that would have been used in those days, so maybe he didn't think gloves were necessary. However, the clip of the start of the real race appears to show that he isn't wearing gloves then either!!!!!

And I thought "let's have a post where everyone can post nice classic onboard videos so we build up a onboard video thread". Nice discussion, guys, and I really enjoyed it (never knew what a legend Mike Hailwood is, read some stuff about him after this), but you went way off topic.  ::)

Oh come on H, we're just talking about a video that's been posted.  I'm sure there's more videos to come.  There's little point in it being a forum if we don't talk, and to start another thread to talk about a thread that exists already is a bit daft.

There's two great onboards:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJDkZYhJR1E (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJDkZYhJR1E) Jim Clark at Outlon Park

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7Ifcgl789E (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7Ifcgl789E) - J. M. Fangio at Modena

So you have been educated Hristo, a side benefit of you starting this thread! ;)

Not sure how I missed this thread. I see Anderstorp is included in this season's lineup so here's a couple of classic onboards from there:

Andretti in Lotus 79:

Peterson in March 721:

Graham Hill 1962 at Rouen - shame there's no engine sound:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9dTC9HOMps (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9dTC9HOMps)

Le Mans 1969 in GT40:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmA01dUhdPY&feature=video_response (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmA01dUhdPY&feature=video_response)

Onboard from the 50's(I have no idea witch track it is, and who is the driver):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a2W_hOKYXM (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a2W_hOKYXM)

I think the "unknown" circuit is Goodwood, from St Mary's through Lavant and on towards Woodcote???

Do I get a prize??? ::) But I have no idea who the driver is or what car.

The helmut at Goodwood looks like that of Stirling Moss.  So the car is likely to be a Rob Walker Cooper of 1959ish.

These links are great, and each one leads to more, and there goes the weekend!  I hope you all have a licence to distract . . . grumble . . grumble!

Most definately Sir Sterling in Rob Walkers CooperT51 Climax , the head laid back arms straight driving style is a dead giveaway  :)

Loved that , great v8 sound and special bonus prize to hear the voice of an old favourite Chris Amon one of the BEST drivers EVER  Chris was So unlucky never to win a Grand Prix .

An ex flatmate of Mike Hailwood and a Top Bloke who you could share a pint with  :)

Here's Moss again (briefly) Cooper T51 Nurburgring then folowing Hubert Hanne with stewart commentary (already posted)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvdMiB2nAKg&NR=1&feature=fvwp (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvdMiB2nAKg&NR=1&feature=fvwp)

Not an "on board" but I make no appologies for posting this superb document , all the GPL stars in full colour

I don't know if anyone posted this (please write descriptions next to your links and post ONLY onboard footage), but here's another one:

Full lap of Le Mans 1977 in a Porsche 936 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWeLuglJr9I

Sound is a bit late and out of synchro, but not too bad. Interesting how the car drifts in some of the slower corners.

Wow, the modelers nailed this one!  The run down to the hairpin might be just a little shorter than in GPL but this clip was from '62.  Maybe they extended it by '68.

Rouen is one of my favorites!

Its available on CD , titled 'Rouen Round' , comes bundled with 'Brands Beat' 1963/4 ? British GP afair  :)

What do you mean no engine sound? That's how the BRM sounded in '62. Bet it was pretty annoying to drive, though.

BRM
powered by Stan Kenton and his Orchestra  ;D

Porsche 956 at Mosport

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ApbxdJgmC4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ApbxdJgmC4)

Yeah, they built a wonderful V6, but with an awkward ignition timing - 1-2-3-cha-cha-cha. With three cylinders numbered 'cha', it gave the mechanics a hard time adjusting it. As soon as they got it into rhythm, though, it literally made music.

a different view of Francorchamps

http://blog.sonuma.be/un-tour-du-circuit-de-francorchamps-avec-lucien-bianchi/ (http://blog.sonuma.be/un-tour-du-circuit-de-francorchamps-avec-lucien-bianchi/)

That's some great footage there Bernie. Never seen a full onboard lap of the old Spa circuit before  :o.

Fantastic Bernie

Great stuff.

Don't fancy going driving through Stavelot whilst looking out the back window much though!

I was waiting for that  ;D


Its a view often seen by budding GPL'ers though  :D


On the same web site is an interview with Jackie Ickx ( One time Ferrari numero uno F1 and sportscar driver ) but its in Flemish ( I think ) I would love to know what hese saying , cant recall him ever having an interview in english , but in them days there wasnt many drivers who would talk on camera , Moss, Graham Hill and Stewart being the exceptions . Clark was noted for his shyness , Brabham had a problem stringing two words together , Surtees was Ok with it , Hulme positively hated the media and told them so in no uncertain terms .

Most thought there job was to drive fast cars and there private lives was there own business .

Fellow Belgian driver Olivier Gendebian (spelling ? ) is also interviewed

Great driving by this fellow (on the same track): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujj9RED_1QU&feature=related Three spots on the first lap is almost of Senna class!

Well, it depends how good your competitors are and how good your car is. I would say Mosport is predominantly about how good your car is setuped, nearly flat out in these. Nice onboard though, very immersive.

Hello, this thread seems vaguely familiar . . .  hmm, what's on the other channel.

Now hold on folks, before you touch that dial, umm . . .frequency modulator thingy, I've found something special.  It's a 1973 F1 documentary made in the USA, and though the script is a touch melodramatic, it's still rather good.  So set aside some time - part 1 is 45 minutes, and can be found here  http://www.streetfire.net/video/1970s-f1-champions-forever-part-1-of-2_647105.htm

You'll find it has a link to part 2, if such is of interest?

Ta ! that was a bloody fantastic film,  thanks for posting  :)

Now where did you hide Part 2 ?

Ooops ! here we go  ...

Yes Bernie I enjoyed it as well.

Funny to see the governor from Prison Break narrating it too :)

Thanks for posting the link Martin.

Fangio onboard Monaco

Seen that before, but nice to see it once more. It's interesting how easy he makes it look. Also notice how fast the chicane is, just like in GPL, so I guess they changed that later on.

Once again, a shamelessly speeded up clip.  Apparently the world's greatest drivers in history, are not fast enough anymore - their laptimes continue to tumble in the digital age!  I'm amazed how few of us notice, where reality stops.  How can you judge great technique, when past drivers become hypersonic, thrice bionic supermen!  I suppose the idea these days, is to pack more action into less space, but when the subject matter is driving technique, it's completely absurd! :blink: :clown:

I don't think it's sped up at all, at least not the onboard footage.

I think the majority would agree with you Hristo.  Apparently most are content to accept parallel Universes.  A couple of clues would be the rate of change of direction of that 1955 Lancia - more like late 60's, but without the rubber.  And the added gravity applied to our superhero's body over the bumps - not the upward force, but while he drops back into his seat.  That increases with video speed, not with road speed.

Without digitization, most would never see these old films.  There's the rough, and the smooth to it.  And most don't visually know what these machines were capable of any more. It becomes a matter of, "The quickness of the hand, deceives the eye."  Umm . . . or something parallel to that!  :(

Well, you know the Fangio onboard at Fiorano, right? That's not sped up and it looks similar to this Monaco onboard, i.e. when he turns into the Lowes hairpin. Those cars might've had skinnier tires than 60s F1, but it was mostly the weight which prevented them from going faster in corners. Straight line speed was the same, if not even higher because of the very powerful engines.

It's Modena(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modena_Autodrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modena_Autodrome)) not Fiorano(this track was build in 1972) ;)

I've found very interresting video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFVOooG5yeo&feature=relmfu (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFVOooG5yeo&feature=relmfu) - This explain several of Chaparral 2E features. I knew that Chaparrals were technically advanced, but until a saw this video I just didn't realised how innovative they were ;)

Ah, the video I downloaded long ago said it's Fiorano, I guess that was a mistake.

Great video Al. But I must say that for me the only proper way to travel around IOM is on two wheels ;)

Someone showed me this video, it looks awesome.

Not really as famous, but it's from the Peel Kart GP

Yeah, I've seen that one long ago. The Subaru lap of Isle of Man was impressive though!

Thx Bernie  :thumbup2:

It shows how much more grip there is in a modern car  ;)

Amazing, he's drifting it at such speed!

It isn't that easy in GPL  ;D

Scalded cat, put out in the rain - fantastic stuff!   BTW, there's still a Caterham mod being slowly worked on, so perhaps we'll be able to create our own highlights someday. :laugh:

Make that a Westfield mod instead. Quicker and cheaper  ;)
