At the 3.50 mark, this is the only video I have seen of the ex George Fury 120Y.

Even the official Octagon DVD hasn't got it

Thank you for including this great car.

@djbal4 Not a problem. :) I'm a bit surprised too that the 120Y didn't receive more coverage. I also have footage of it from the other stages as well, once I get a bit of free time, I might upload a video of just the 120Y.

One of the best Targa videos I have ever seen! Amazing video quality and sound and of course the footage is well staged.. KUDOS! Would like to know what camera you are using? Listening on headphones provided a true to live feel.

@hothatchpa Cheers for the comments! I use two cameras: a Sony SR42 HDD video camera which is a superseded base model hard drive handy cam. And a Samsung D351i tape video camera, which should have died years ago and is probably worth well less than $50! Filming uni-student style! Using tripods however helps improve the quality. I edit in Sony Vegas and render off as a high quality wmv file, which compresses and works well with YouTube, so that helps the quality too.
