Astupid idea you will be carring a stick so you the carrier can be bitten with dont get one you will be nicked by the british police for crrying an offencive wepon

Thanks guys for an absolutely brilliant and most entertaining video. I always liked Mick as a racer, sorry Steve. I remember drooling over both Mick's and Barry's bikes when they were at Boyer's of Bromley. Used to hear a booming voice from the spares department saying, "dont you go sitting on it". Or words to that effect. Happy days, thank you so much.

Top bloke

I went to Brooklands earlier this year, basically to see their Concorde. The Stratospheric Chamber was such a good surprise - spent ages there learning about it. So impressive and all the Brooklands volunteers are helpful and enthusiastic. Highly recommended.

Too fast ..

I have always thought of Henry Cole as just another posh twat, but having watched this video I've changed my opinion slightly!!! His involvement with narcotics anonymous isn't an easy thing for someone to admit, but I take my hat off to him for his honesty

I wanted to see the raffle!!

What was the Victors top speed and hight. Anyone know??

My kinda a girl...I was going to do it in 1975 on a Triumph Trident but Triumph talked me out of it..and didnt see the sponsorship opportunity it offered...rode NZ , Aus and Sea Asia instead for last 50yrs..Bought herbook and looking forward to reading it when I get back from my lastest trip riding Thailand and Laos

very interesting, thanks

Excellent, thank you.

This is the best interview that I've ever seen . A real .masterclass in motor racing history . Doug is a real national treasure .

Very enjoyable and good to see Max's love of old cars. Would 've liked to know how the fan technology of the McMurtry differs from something like the Chaparral 2J

The engine and transition. In their bean ???

What engine dose their bean have

nice eye opener, very entertaining and professional, plus a good laugh. - thanks Henry

Very nice 1964 Chevrolet Corvair FC 95 Greenbrier Sport Wagon, & a very nice job on making the conversion to the camper conversion. The engine is not the correct engine for a FC 95; The engine in this vehicle is out of a Corvair passenger car; That is why the oil fill tube is not in the correct place. On a different note the Porches engine of that time is like a Corvair engine as Chevrolet had developed the air cooled flat 6 seven years before Porches for a automobile application.

Inspiration to many👏👏

That picture sleeping near the 356 is some where in Portugal, the sign shows it ZZZ, dangerous corners next, and the JAE is Junta Autonoma de Estradas. 🤣😂🤣

This brings back great memories for me. One of my proudest possessions is my certificate for flying at the controls of Concorde (ok, the simulator) with my superb training captain, Harry Linfield. Brooklands is just wonderful.

What is it? You went through a lot of trouble to film and upload this but not provide any description, explanation or context

wow a compelling interview indeed! as a lifelong motorhead and reader He's a big part of my passion for motorsport.

Your the man Henry I am clean 23 yrs.

Like all great British inventions, it's basically inside a giant tin shed.

It would be nice if the projectionist would enlarge the maps.

Please stop blaming gyroscopic effects for the difficulty of flying planes like the Sopwith Camel. While gyroscopic forces *are* a thing, especially in rotary-engined planes, the most common problem was poor understanding of aerodynamics and pilot training. This was the dawn of aviation, so designers didn't know how to predict or control a plane's handling characteristics, so their planes often had sudden and vicious stall characteristics. Pilots didn't have effective training on stall recovery or other difficult maneuvers. The Sopwith in particular had a further problem: it required enormous force on the control stick to move the ailerons, but very little force on the control stick to move the elevator. These unexpected differences frequently caught rookie pilots (who'd learned to fly on the comparatively stable BE2) by surprise with fatal consequences.

Fond, intimate memories of working on numerous 1-11 aircraft, during my maintenance career at LTN from the late 70s to mid 80s.

The Adams Farwell rotary throttled by variable compression. The purpose of the Castor oil was to lubricate the machine from the crankcase, like a 2-stroke. An oil miscible in gasoline would not do, so the inferior but non-miscible Castor oil was chose. The engine ejected the oil, all rotary radials did, as it was impossible to retain against the centripetal tendency. The downside of this is that Fllight time is limited by coolant reserves (there is a tank),, while the upside is that the engine always has fresh, pure oil lubrication.

triffic".

have you met CRABBERS EG SARAH CRABTREE EX bangers & cash mathewsons think met on shed &buried

If you go onboard Brooklands Museum's Viscount Stephen Piercey and look carefully amongst all the Viscount models in the glass cabinet, you should find there's one Viking - very possibly the type you remember.

Many thanks! I wonder how much that massive wooden prop contributed to the gyroscopic effect, too.

Just Super.

When I was five years old I had a Dinky Vickers Viking. I could blow at it and its little propellors would revolve.

Nice building.Perhaps someone was good at finding the best factories for West Surrey

Delightful, interesting guy. Thanks!

Thanks. Really enjoyed that. It was a different time.

Doug Nye should be in a glass case in the National Motor Museum... (with air holes of course)

Great upload! Would've liked to become a member, restoring a 30s car, but their is no representation in the UK borders. Its all midlands and below....

Rick Jones of Old Classic Car (website and KZbin) still owns the Dennis Poore transporter.

Akin to "First Light " start to finish without putting it down . Thanks .

A genuine guy and true character who gives all of us who love motorcycles a reason to turn the telly on 😀

Wonderful bloke, this.

very much enjoyed this talk, a great man indeed.thanks.

I'm not sure if I remember right, but is there a chance I saw this same spitfire at Duxford Airfield around 2019?

The heroes are not the drivers but the engineers without them you would not have the car the drivers are are like history graduates no idea apart from reading that all of us can do

Does anybody know of an Armstrong Siddley prototype sportscar from the early fifties? My father was a test pilot then and was loaned the car for a few months to test. Seems to me that he said it had a lot of push button controls.

Fantastic! A motor sport legend...they're not all drivers you know!

I'm just a minute into this but I love the politeness of the crowd responding to the guest greeting them!

1:36..."Why is it here, how is it here"...Coz Pat wont let me keep in the lounge!
