Video Derek Bell does 7 Circuits in a 956
 
Hi
I've just been loaned a "Duke" DVD (DMDVD 3480) called "in car 956". It features Derek Bell with camera on board driving Silverstone (UK), Old Nurburgring (D), Le Mans (F), Brands Hatch(UK), Fuji Speedway (J), and Kyalami (SA). He talks you through the drive and points out the little issues, like not being able to see the exit to a bend on the Ring but having to commit anyay.
I also like the bit on the Old MulsanneStraight at Le Mans, when he comments that he will not be able to get any where near Jackie Oliver's 246 MPH because of the weight of the camera gear etc.He still manages a tidy 230 mph anyway.
There is another nice bit where once again because of the Camera weight he has to allow Jackie Ickx go steaming past in another 956.
Well worth a trip down memory lane of racing in the late 1980s!
Regards Big Bob
