Brilliant !! The guy in the Alfa is mad, interesting to see the 356 has it in a straight line, and as for the noise of the little Fiat

That was great!
I was really willing the 356 to retake!

All credit to the Alfa driver too - goes off track, gets back on and still neck and neck! Two of my favourite cars ever...

Love that clip, what is the car that is filming it all? Got them both at the finish!

Someone on the video thread says it's an MGB - I'm not sure - could be I guess, but I can't really work it out 100%...

what a great lap! This video is filmed from the same car, got the 356 and fiat which has a look in the first video too.

Typical MGB (low value) racer, adopting the 'drive it like you hate it' style. I bet the MGA driver waited for a very very big gap before he lapped that one.

Having said that, not the smoothest lines from the 356 or the Alfa but pretty ballsy racing. I wonder if they actually touched doors.

Did you see that American thing (Fairline?) slingshot the start grid Yeeha!
