Thanks for the video link. Amazing how old some of the cars were that were competing that year. Particularly liked the start where the race was on but the pace car was still trying to exit the track! Great variety of cars. A shame we're down to spec series now.

Wow, that is absolutely stunning! The picture quality is incredible. Obviously a Firestone promotional film, so no expense spared. As Eagle said, its nice to see so many different brands.
