Post the coolest sportscar/GT video you have come across...

Since a few of us have been posting some videos from here and there, I thought it would be fun to make a compilation of some of the great videos hanging around the net.

Some have probably seen this video, but I stumbled across it on youtube. It's a video of the mulsanne straight from the 88' 24 hours of lemans. It is just an amazing 5 minute experience.

Enjoy

Hear you go! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_0_C...eature=related but I guess, Beauty is in the EAR of the beholder.

I was at the race in Portland in 92 (the XJR-14 vid). If I remember right Davy lost a clutch about 2/3rds through the race. TD should remember that (maybe ).

Nice, I was there too (but I was way too young to remember... just 2 yrs old) Wish ALMS would come back to Portland...

Pretty popular video, but if you haven't seen it then WATCH IT. I have watched it a bunch of times E30 M3 Rally footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkQBD...eature=related

Awesome onboard of 2009 24hrs Nürburgring with Timo Bernhard in the Mathey Winning GT3 RSR. A lot of traffic, and a good chase with Uwe Alzen.

Another BIG favourite of mine,is this vid of Jacques Lafitte. He's piloting a Ferrari F40LM around the french circuit of Le Mas du clos.
I love the way the dear men just hops in to this 700bhp monster on his docksteps to wrestle a bit with the gearlever to find first...

Unbelievable sounding V8. One can hear the flames poppin'...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1Pxbx4MPIA Is this close? Best played at full volume, full bass, 7.1 surround sound is recommended, 100 plus watt amp. Prepare to buy new speakers (absolutely no warranties for damaged ears). Enjoy. (Mods, I did a search of 10ths for this, didn't see it. Feel free to delete if previously posted)

Top find!!! Great vid from driver's perspective, a fixed onboard cam is nice but having the camera move with the driver's head really adds to the feeling of being there in the car with them.

Porsche 956 driven on the old LeMans course. That straight is never ending. It's like Mr. Bell has it pinned for eons!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlPecspdJlY

First lap of 2009 LeMans 24hr race. Very cool to see how quickly the 4 classes spread out. The AMR Lolas sound distinct and the C6R's are easy to pick out too, just awesome. Also, look how close the racing is at the front of the GT2 pack. It's too bad the RSRs had some many issues again, I think that GT2 class would have been a nice battle

Ah, there is nothing like the sound of a fine sportscar at full bore down Mulsanne. You never get tired of it.

What's amazing about this footage is that the "hunk of junk" JLOC Lambo is actually keeping up with the last of the GT2s!
