I swear this few minutes of oldies racing worth more than F1 in the last 10 years !!! :)
@@lancs_emergencyspotter9661 That is the best part. Who wants to watch people succeed lol........
At least they were trying.Some of these F1 Divas would break a nail doing that in the rain.....
F1 sucks.
Except when they crash...
Except Hamilton vs Verstappen
5:29 Those wheels are so trippy! I thought they were still spinning high rpm until the car came to a complete stop.
Love seeing all these classic cars being treated how they were built to be and not stuck in some stuffy old garage somewhere because someone thinks it's an asset.
Boy does this footage bring back memories. In 1964 I bought a 1960 MGA Twin Cam race car after the team who owned it blew the engine at Thompson Raceway. The car was totally set up,for racing and had never been used on the highway so it was equipped with an almost new set of oversized Goodyear Bluestreak racing tires. As these tires were only designed to be used in the dry should have replaced them but they were so good in the dry I kept them. First time I got caught out in the rain I was navigating a rotary at about 65 mph and found myself spinning in endless circles! These poor guys found themselves in similar circumstances!
I can't tell you how wonderful it is to see pieces of art going around the road at speed and being competitive, but also can't tell you how hard it is to watch a jaguar or an SC go into the wall at speed even if it is a padded wall.
It's almost like the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat every 20 seconds!!!!!🤗🤯☠
Very well put, and I totally agree. We all want to see these cars being raced in a spirited and competitive manner - it’s what they were designed and constructed to do - but, at the same time, we want them to look pristine and retain their elegant lines and classic beauty.
But those two desires are really antithetical to one another, which is why so many such cars end up as pampered, soulless Garage Queens, in the same way that some parents won’t allow their children to engage in exuberant outdoor play, “because they’ll only hurt themselves...”
🗣🤕🙁😢😔
These cars are well looked after and will always see the repair they require if damaged. When the Jag hit the wall, yes there weas concern for the car, but I was wondering about the driver, it's not like new cars that can take a walloping. All seemed ok though. But agreed, wonderful to see these machines 'living' as they were intended.
as they say, it's not a beauty contest, unless it's a 1906 Daraque out there getting out classed by everyone else, give her the beans, your only gonna look like a chump as the owner entering yer prima dona in circuit race.. if you want to show it, save it for the hillclimb, otherwise there's scores to settle out there..
Shame how utterly stupid to take an irriplacable classic you have lovingly restored or someone else has and drive like a maniac so you can destroy it by banging it into a wall. By the way having once owned a TC it made me sick to see these fools doing this.
What a hoot! Nice to see people playing with their cars the way they're supposed to.
In the rain, rolling the dice like a drunk? No thanks.
Raining, 60 year old brakes. Entry speed? ONE HUNDRED MILES AN HOUR
👍🏻🤣🤣
As much or more driver error on the turn entry and steering angle which put him on the grass. A better driver might actually have made that corner at that speed, but many of these weekend warriors simply don’t have the experience or skills.
normally he drives a safe SUV...haha
Way I'm looking at it, they're mostly on quite modern tyres, which means they lose it while going way faster than they were meant to.
This comment cracked me up. Worse still I’m one of the drivers doing exactly this in the video 😭
What a great surprise! First time on the channel, and I'm digging all these little Euro cars...and then in rolls a '65 Falcon! lol right into the crashbarriers! lol ...4 door Jaguars, old straight-sided roadsters, open cockpits... racing in the rain, no less! LOVE IT! I'll be back!!
Great editing, straight into action, no waffling 👍🏼
If I owned an expensive classic car, you probably would not find me racing in the rain.
If you have the means sometimes the story is worth the expense, to be honest many of these people would have the car restored no matter the damage.
@Mark Ward That's fine, but I would enjoy mine when it was dry!
@@8ballphilc They got the dough
Actually it's not *THAT* expensive as far as motor racing goes.
Just got to pick a car that suits your pocket.
I've done it, and it is something I would usually try to avoid; it's bloody difficult to even see with spray defeating your wipers, and your braking marks moving in and out as the track dries or gets wetter; racing being what it is, if you feel your wheels let go under braking, it's usually too late to avoid an off.
Damn, that's beautiful. It's impossible to not love old British cars.
Couldn't agree more.Watching this clip was a real treat.
Yes, cars are indeed racing.
All the comments about lack of skill, being an ex racing driver myself I doubt any of you could do any better, these cars aren’t the easiest things to drive quickly in the dry let alone the wet greasy conditions of castle Combe, yes some are what are called gentleman races who are just doing it because of there love and passion for motorsport, so there is no need to go throwing insults around, especially when half of you could only dream of having the skill to race a car competitively
I've just come across your comment and I totally share your remarks to the keyboard top drivers whose driving experience on a wet track is next to zero.
I can see tons of social envy surfacing and I dare say that's an unfair and clueless behaviour.
I guess these gentlemen are having fun,beyond any competitive feeling, and who cares about their skill on the wet...
6:38 what happens in vintage racing when you try to outbrake a 911
Congrats on 1 mill views
Sad. Don't wish any "bingles" on such great old classics. Some great spin recoveries in there. Cheers to the chaps for still "giving them the beans". I've done plenty of racing in the rain on wide slicks, and its scary business! At least they aren't going very fast and have low mass :)
Amazing to see classics like this racing
I remember Quarry corner back in the early sixties, Nothing has changed
Respect that these people still drive their cars like they’re meant to be driven!
Great great great!!!!Thank you x posting this!!!!Much funnier than F1!!!!Your Like sir!!
Those green racers with the yellow wheels look so good.
Thank You for sharing. I really must get back into spectating again.
Great video mate enjoyed that meeting 👍. How my camera didn't break from the rain and spray I will never know.
Good video 👌🏻 I need to get down to Castle Combe more!
Definitely recommend it! I never miss a race meeting.
Perfect English racing weather there!
😂😂
That is hardcore fun there kids. I can just picture the smiling faces as the car pulls a dognut, straightens her out, back on the gas and away he goes!! Good having the big soft pillows so no one gets hurt.
That was painful watching no 66. Rebuild time cool racing
This is like poetry in motion
0:56 Gaaaah don’t ya hate understeer!!!😂
The sheer inevitability of it
There were some excellent spin recoveries being shown here.
Alguém sabe informar onde tem o vídeo completo dessa corrida?
Indiquem algum canal que tenha vídeos como esse.
Me encantó! se ve muy divertido. A fondoo
Incredibly high percentage of inordinately lucky drivers!
0:06 é sério que ele pensou que poderia fazer aquela curva naquela velocidade ? E ainda ficou brabo? Que bracinho curto
Drivers briefing: Today we'd like to try and make quarry a permanent yellow. It won't be easy but do your best..

@@JohnSmith-dr9vl When you can speak coherently on a subject relevant to the video, maybe someone will pay attention to you.
This looks like real car racing 👍
Castle Combe is a quick track... unforgiving in the wet, as shown here!
I haven't even gotten to a moment. and I am so surprised. These drivers don't understand the concept of taking foot off the gas pedal or turning the front wheels into the turn. Its like the first day of drivers education. That said, Man they are driving some beautiful cars.What great video!
A legendary race!!!
Is Castle Combe a student driver course?
Its a good thing #20 is on the race track. Help us all if it gets on the roads
No matter what the weather, no matter how expensive their classic cars valued, Brits will race ... no garage queens here!
Yep we're not from the us arv a Lol.. we just have to get on with it whatever the weather 😁
Gotta hand it to that Mustang! Nice cornering!
Yep
old type tyres... thinny tires. ... nice video.
There must have been a really BIG prize to actually be racing those cars in that rain!
1:35 that jag sounded angry.
Love the mini @0:52 revving it all the way through the corner. Behind the mini, the land yacht trying to negotiate the corner to no avail.
First time in history a Ford Falcon has ever been referred to as a land yacht. Maybe to you brits until you see what a real American land yacht looks like.
Yeah other than the first guy coming in way over his head they all Drive really well the fact that they've had no contact means that they're really mindful of the drivers around them and it looks like they're on Ice it's so slick but still very good video thanks
always blooding raining in UK?
they say you can't NOT watch a trainwreck. I see why! it pains me to see classics crashing but its amazing to watch
Muy bonitos autos, acá en México también tenemos carreras de autos de colección
I only hope that the owners of these fine old cars have so much money that damaging them doesn’t matter. But I doubt it won’t matter.
What are those tiny open-wheel racers called?
大昔のレースを見てるようで、楽しい。
Try Michelin Pilot Sport 3. It's the best tyre in the rain I've ever used.
Love oldtimers😍🤩
Water is a wonderful lubricant ...😊
0:04 How on earth did this driver think he could possibly make that corner with that speed?!
Sounds like a Spitfire!
Haha it was fun guessing which cars would spin out
На этих старикашках больше тяги и мощности чем на наших новых вестах спорт и грантах)
Those big crash pads seem to do a decent job to be fair. It is sad to see these cars getting bashed up but even sadder to not see them on a track.
I feel sorry for the beautiful old cars getting wrecked
I just can not understand how you go to a race track with such valuable and historic cars (and still when it rains) and thus risks to destroy the valuable car! :-(
No wussies allowed, that's how.
Ignorance is bliss, Alexander 🙄
0:07 forza online lobbies be like
Certainly I can understand enjoying your wonderful oldie sports car, I have had a few - a TC and an Austin 7 Nippy but in the rain where you know you have a seriously good chance of buggering the thing up - no way, that is just bloody stupid!
Love combe 20 mins from my home
Fun in the rain!
This is the first time I appreciated the British weather.
I love this video. Why do they show that commercial crap in the tv when this is where the action is at. All those similar cars racing tracks they're underpowered for or overburdened with tech too. Its just not fun to watch, this race from this single camera showed the atmosphere and tension that racing is. I also loved it was raining.
That prat in the grey XK 120 though ...
Often these sudden spins are because wheels are not aligned (they might go off because suspension is malfunctioning), or chasis suffered from previous impacts and rear wheels are not perfectly diagonaly aligned with front wheels and this causes spins. You can notice that most of the cars go OK, and that some cars even spin on straights. Those that spin on straights have issues with wheel alignment for sure.
Rain in the UK in autumn? Damned odd....
great car
0:57 "And this is Understeer."
Any idea what type of car that is at 1:15 ? Number 28.
6:25 real mustang not 2.3 ECOboost
MDMA 420 Testosterone on wheels. Love it!!
No
@@brianruskin9241 What do you mean idiot?
Incase you’re salty about their driving, just remember that most of these individuals suffer from the same issue that 90% of you do. It’s called “driving aid”. None of these vehicles have ABS, traction control, power steering, (maybe) power brakes, and modern tires. Just like you, they’re used to the car helping them keep itself on the road. Most of you can barely drive on a damp road in your 2000+ daily at the speed limit, let alone hold it together in the bends during a torrential downpour in a 1950’s-1960’s period correct race car. Yeah, these guys are looking clumsy, but I’m completely positive that you’d have the toy wrecked within the first lap. Until you’ve mastered driving with the same circumstances, you’ve still yet to lose your training wheels.
Hence why I leave the traction control off all winter, so that I am constantly practicing how to handle a not entirely planted car. Admittedly abs brakes are nice.
I've driven my Sprite hard in the rain, things can definitely get squirmy.
I appreciate your grind to better your ability to drive, John. Much respect! Take care of that Sprite. As a past owner of one, I know the struggle to replace the bits.
@@robbymidgett3797 I'll have to admit, the Sprite has been a dream to own. Easy to work on, parts are cheap. It's been super reliable, I do put a lot of preventative maintenance into it. It also helps to drive it, I've put about 2k miles per year on mine for three years straight. It's an easy car to trust, and hence, it's a very enjoyable classic.
John Pearson Yep. They’re an absolute laugh riot! Mine was a 64 Mark II track day build with the 18GB engine and gearbox from an MGB. It was an angry little bastard, but reasonably reliable, economic, and a complete holler around a course. I was being a nunse for selling the little kit. Glad to hear someone’s enjoying theirs. Have fun, stay safe!
tbh - I've an '05 Elise 111S - has none of these things. Now after 11 years, I'm about ready to push on... at least on the dry!
What class begins at 3:50 ???
What is car 27 at 6:48?
This is how racing should be; for the dare devils and crazy brave, doing their job.
@Mike B With no talent at all i might add. A banger race with vintage rare cars. These people jobs are not inside cars.
@Mike B you're just poor and mad, if you worked instead of complaining about other people, maybe you could get somewhere in life.

You can tell the really smooth drivers when it gets wet.
Funny how as soon as you touch grass your baked. When you think about it, it was the same in the 70's!!!
Love that the FIA go to such lengths to ensure drivers safety, only for legacy cars like these to be raced around a track anyway.
Its hard to look away.
0:52 I can relate to the wet track in a mini i when off on a prac track here in Australia and killed the engine
when your priceless car does what it wants
Todos estos son buenos en clima seco no mojado
great video but so sad to see any of these beauties crashing
Better than watching them gather dust in a museum. Or rust in some barn.
@@spikespa5208 yep , slide you're right

Well, this WAS about vintage racing. Until the incomprehensible nut showed up.
I guess they've never learned "The Art of Racing In the Rain". LOL

I know right ???
Conclusion, long live traction!
What is the brand name of this car ?
3:06 (№3)
Beautiful cars..what could possibly go wrong with a little mud and water on the track?
is the oil on the track ?
Tiny tires on tiny cars, probably as much power or more than you street car with no fancy driver's aids.

Jaguar e type I think
0:04
I mean, what in the holy hell are you thinking, driving a car like that in conditions like this?
He is thinking he is having a good time (until he crashed).
He tried to kansei dorifto
It didn't work
Always consider it luck when you can walk away from a crash angry or laughing. Seems like a fun day at the track tho
Did not expect that from the Mustang
That's we call "aquaplanning" ....
