Sports car racing with one lap 44 miles long! Porsche made cars specially for this race. The circuit is no longer used, and it is easy to see why!

  • Turn the sound off! There's nothing there apart from projector noise. Sorry (yet again)!

    Hope you enjoyed it anyway.

  • Impresionante vídeo, magníficos coches... En fin, 10 sobre 10

  • Thank you very much!

  • At first I was annoyed that this is a low quality video of original film footage, but after watching just a few seconds of it... It is a very charming experience to see it as it was seen then. Thank You!!

  • Thanks for watching. I know it is low quality: please see my comments about the quality (three months ago), for which I make no apology. Getting these things done professionally is expensive, I might get it done one day (or sell it...).

  • Great footage ! It brings back memories...Lola T70,Porsche 906,908,911,

    Chevron,AR 33/2,Lancia Barchetta,Fulvia Zagato....

    People watching risking nearly as much as the drivers...no major accidents though if memory serves.Someone did really love the Targa up there....

    Thx for sharing !

  • Thanks for posting this. Also I am glad you did not edit the classic projector sound and add some shitty music instead.

    This video is very nostalgic. Awesome.

  • It was a round of the then World Sportscar Championship........same as le Mans 24hr, Spa 1000km,etc...but errrm.....just around the mountains of Sicily.....no pressure then....!!

  • Ojalá regresase esta carrera, junto a la Mille Miglia...

  • @vrimi79 Its a 10 lap race on a 45 mile track in the last years. Its not time trial, you can see some overtaking in the video.

  • Racing the way it was meant to be. On real roads

  • Le corse più belle del mondo erano la Mille Miglia, la Targa Florio e La 24 Ore di LeMans. Sono la storia dell'automobilismo sportivo.

  • you could have shown us some of the women cause fuck me the cars were amazing! that clip is dead set cooler than polar bear shit...also i loved it!

  • I love the 8mm sound reminds me of my home movies ,doin't change it
