Santa Pod at Brighton

A short clip of some non-racing footage of Santa pod's trip to Brighton in 1982ish (not sure of the date). It's an old cine film, so there's no sound (the engines aren't running so there's nothing to miss). Hellbender, Maiden Warrior and Vampire.

Thanks for the reply. I have many memories as a child watching vampire and Hellbender together until Hellbender's final run in 1986. I too wish there was more of it! Have you seen the website acceleration archive? (found through eurodragster.com) I'm sure they would be only too pleased to have a look themselves. Plus, they have many other vintage footage.

That is a good website (acceleration archive), but never thought about sending them the footage above - But i think i will now. Thanks

Thanks - I had forgot that I had this, until I got them out for another project. And it was a great surprise to find it.

I just wish there was more of it!!!

Santa Pod still had that transporter,i see it there just a few years ago.Think its based on a Bedford TK chassis.
