A while back I posted some photos of RIR back in the day. Just got my old 8mm movies digitized, so here is some footage of me running a speed trial in my 1652 MG TD (#21) back in February of 1968. 

All taken with a wind up regular 8mm camera, so no nifty engine noises. My uncle rode along and took the in car footage. Had to wind the camera back up just as we came into Turn 6, so missed seeing the old boilerplate close up.

Bought the MG in 1965 and still own it 50 years later. Some other nifty cars in the background, this was before they were too valuable to play with. Didn't get a picture of the brand new SAAB that had been rolled going it 6 and then slid on it's nose and roof into the boilerplate. Dealer tags and plastic still over the pristine interior.
