Ayrton Senna was afraid to take Tommy Byrne on when they were both in junior formulae, he knew Tommy was a better driver.There has never been anybody with as much natural talent as Tommy Byrne LEGEND!
Great video of Tommy driving . I met him while he was instructing a driver for a friends race team at the NASA Nationals in Sept 07 . A great guy . Watching the in-car playback in the motorhome with the driver was a great insight into Tommy's skills as a driver and instructor.
mid ohio track days/pace car rides are the best! i took the advanced driving course where I drove the TSX. the last pace car ride i got was in the old RSX's they had. two amazing cars but i think i liked the RSX's a little better.
By the way, I would have loved to see the cameraman pan back to the other TSX to compare speed after Madness (1:10). What a line, what a racing circuit...
Great video. Tommy Byrne was one of my instructors at the Mid-Ohio School (2005). Classy guy, told funny stories of his short-lived Formula One career.
what a man

Just finished it, what a story!!! Tommy is a legend..such a fucking shame he didn't get what he deserved. F1 hasn't been a sport for a long time.

The guy is awesome. Put 'indy lights' in wikipedia and see how many times he drove dodgy cars up to the front of the championship.
