Fantastic Video and Bonus picture gallery

I found this video earlier and thought it too good to just stick in a linklog entry.  It is footage of the great Gerry Marshall driving Baby Bertha round Oulton Park, it also contains Bill Blydenstein talking about the engine and the work they are putting in on the 'new' car at the start.  It is one of the most evocative videos from saloon car racing of the time, the paddock and in car sections are a real treat.  So without further ado:

 

 

This video also linked to the following video which is Baby Bertha later in the season at Mallory Park :

 

 

This in turn led us to this excellent Flickr Pool for the BTCC 50 Year Celebration, which should keep you entertained for a little while at least.

Odin : glad to be of service Smile

Seth : Yeah the way the car is squirreling around on the track as it gets light is amazing.  He sounds so calm, I thought it was a voice over, but I think its live from the car.
