Hi guys, gone for a few days and just peeked in.  Nordic the 1971 F1 vs F5000 race was the one off Questor GP at the long gone Ontario Motor Speedway in California.  It was a big money event which drew all the F1 teams from Europe except Surtees.  Mark Donohue led for much of the race in a F5000 Lola but retired and the race was eventually won by Mario in a Ferrari, with JYS and his Tyrrell second.  There is a very nice film of this race that Speedchannel used to air as part of their "Glory Days" series, before Speed become the Good Old Boy network.

Hi Termie, oh yes, had a good look at those, some great stuff.  There is a surprising amount of good Can-Am footage floating around out there.  The Can-Am series was well recorded on film, and people like Dick Wallen and Marilyn Motschenbacher have released nice videos in recent years documenting the Can-Am era.
Much of Marilyn's stuff is film she herself shot while husband Lothar was a regular Can-Am privateer.

This somthing I have never heard of, a race in 1971 between the US F5000 cars and the GP cars of the day.

Yes it certainly happened - if I remember rightly at Brands Hatch.


MG Mark

Are you thinking of the Rothmans 50,000? That was an anything goes race, F1 F5000 F2 and sportscars, David Piper entered his 917 etc.
The race was won by Fittipaldi driving a JPS Lotus. That must of gone down well at Pall Mall, Rothmans paying £50,000 to John Player!

Two drivers, maybe better know in sportscars came in 2nd and 3rd, Redman in a McLaren and that legand Henri Pescarolo driving a Frank Wlliams run March

The race in the clip takes place in either the US or canada and looks to be a much bigger event with entrys from Ferrari etc.


Knew I'd remembered it from somewhere in the UK at the time it happened when it created news in the motorsport press.   It was 1973, at the Race of Champions at Brand Hatch, where F5000 cars could compete against F1 (non-championship round). Peter Gethin won the race driving a Chevron-Chevrolet.

Ford Escorts feature on this Rally film.

You will have to turn the sound down and make your own car noises, someone has set it to some horrific music.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6752046131856305023&q=RS200&hl=en

A short film covering maybe the greatest rally cars, Group B. Again set to annoying music.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8816710549784410764&q=Delta+S4&hl=en

And then there is this epic...... 1 1/2 hours of Grp B footage (no music!)

Good to see a bit of the great Michelle Sheep, Nordic.  My all-time heroine.  Greatest woman driver there's ever been in my 'umble opinion.

Jeremy Dale and Fabrizio Barbazza.  That was pretty much the end of both their careers.  Jeremy Dale is now the president of the RuSport Champ Car team (Justin Wilson).

Indeed Ms Mutton en full chanson and all the better for seeing it and a shame she didn't quite hit the championship - damn close.   And  - aaahhh - Group B - the ultimate - what a great selection of cars there with the Audi, RS200, Delta etc etc.  And that noise.  Mouth-watering.

My favourite clip - Vatenen heading up Pikes Peak in Climb Dance.

No safety net. No sun visors.  One-handed driving.  Awesome.
