Thanks for the link - its a pretty amazing video for the era, on one last of
the serious road racing circuits!.
Isn't it remarkable that a Healey 3000 came in 2nd in class in 1965 - beaten
only by a Ferrari 250 GTO.
Yet the 3000 beat 4 other Ferarri 250 GTO's and a Lancia Flaminia in the
same class.
And the Sprite (prototype) and the Midget (production) were just awesome.
Chris
P.S. I suppose us die hard Healey blokes were "just lucky" that there
weren't any E Types entered!
(I'm just joking - LOL!!!)
