[@aaronhussain3873]

I live 20 mins away from the track. So amazing to see this footage on an otherwise familiar place!

[@boboutelama5748]

WAIT ! WAit ! Wait ! ... So there was a guy in this race called "Dick Semen" ?! WOW ! His parents had tons of english humor !

[@aydankhaliq2967]

Unfortunately he died at spa the next year in 1939

[@martinoberg4883]

Fascinating life story. You should be able to find a documentary about Richard Seaman if you look around youtube.

[@motof1fan137]

aydan khaliq 😰😭 thx for imformation !!!

[@gufo_tave]

Seaman, not semen. and "Dick" was just the short for Richard. Richard "Dick" Seaman was probably the first driver to start the bizarre habit of Mercedes to hire... british driver.

[@Instone09ine]

The colour portion of this film is the Melbourne loop which is still there today Though sadly not part of the circuit anymore! In the late 70s my mate and i fitted speedos to our bicycles, i achieved 48 mph which was very scary!

[@paulwixman8151]

wonderful footage!! pjw

[@mikeowen657]

What courage to do this without seat belts running MayPop rubber

[@Bonobo1974]

it was safer , in case of a crash you wanted to be thrown out the car instead of being mangled and burned alive

[@gufo_tave]

@@Bonobo1974 This was the convintion that existed until the 60s... and that killed Wolfgang von Trips in 1961.
