I used to watch Speed religiously - every morning at 7 AM they had a program
about racing through the years. called "Legends of Motorsports"
I came across a VHS tape showing the F-1 cars of 1967 racing around the big Nurburgring track - 14 some mi I believe - D Gurney is in the lead and C Amon is in the Ferrari with the "bundle of snakes" exhaust - but the most spectacular thing is seeing them get airborne! one car looked like it was 3' in the air!
Wow! What a spectacular event! Wish I could have seen a race there in person.... Gurney's Eagle was incredible - until the last lap when a driveshaft broke. Bummer...... Denny Hulme eventually won in a Repco-Brabham - Ferrari was 3rd...
