Title: Andrew Wilson's 1750 at Morgan Park
Post by: hammer on May 02, 2013, 12:31:10 AM
Great drive here from Queenslander Andrew Wilson at the Morgan Park Historic race meeting. Andrew's little 1750 was all over the Mustang and Datto.

WOW!

Two very very good drivers in a fair fight (Alfa v 260z) with brilliant car control!

I enjoyed every single second of that video! Just wish it was the whole race!

Andrew is a great steerer, good vision and good racing.  Thanks.

It was the whole race from start to finish, wasn't it or are you asking about the other races?

That was a 280Z, even on a very tight track horse power won out  :(

Great driving for sure by the Alfa driver, less impressed by the driver of the Mustang.  Kept on blocking opportunities for the Alfa and Datto to get past.

Yeah, I've watched it four times. I feel my right foot reaching for the brake as he approaches that right hand hair pin. So much fun to watch.

As a newbie to watching classic racing I couldn't believe how close the cars were. I am sure they must have been millimetres away from swapping paint.

Impressive skills and exciting racing!

Thanks for sharing!

Glad he wasn't relying on his tacho or speedo..... :o  And my vote is for a 240/260Z not a 280  :)
