Very interesting! I remember rumors that Mickey Thompson had built a special corvette that tested at Sebring and ran 5 seconds a lap faster than the previous years 1962 corvette. Good to see the true story.

Well, at the time (10 years ago) it seemed ok as it was the only paid needle-drop I had left on the shelf. Come back in a few months - the video will be remastered with such improvements.

Yes, I do - thank you for hating but you are stuck with it. If KZbin just had a bit more brains than money, they could implement a feature where you could upload a revised video without losing all of the original's viewing history.

Nice overview to entice someone to take part in the future....but as is soooo common, it's too fast to really absorb details. Should be at least 5-8 seconds on each car.

As they are all extremely beautiful cars, the way to divide them into good, better, best, very best.... is to see in what condition they are, and which one has been restored best with original parts. But there weren't any "un-gorgious cars" to be seen. The reason why a French car - the Citroen SM - managed to slip throught the "'Italians only" watchdogs is of course because it has a Maserati motor: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citro%C3%ABn_SM

Thank you - it is always a challenge to balance pace with user interest. To slow down the video, try Settings/Playback speed rate to 0.75 - or just watch over and over.

@@specialcarchannel That is exactly what I do. There are people who are unaware of the Setting and playback speed feature. Incidentally, pre COVID, I had a booth there with my hand painted auto Logo Art. Perhaps we will return one day.

Sadly soon all combustion cars and trucks including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Car washs will be forbidden too because they are climate killers, now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime. (BABVVEN & TEBBVEN laws )

Could you make the photos flash by any faster? What’s the rush?
@specialcarchannel2 жыл бұрын
The beat dictates the pace; slower presentation will halve the images or double the video length. For a car rally I think it is perhaps better to go fast than slow to heighten the sense of activity.

I would suggest that the reason there is carpeting is because those areas gat very warm due to the exhaust being relocated and the panels being installed underneath. If that was bare metal it would have been unbearable.
