Good ol days

I know its not a toyota, but this was COOL.
Some of the best race cars to see racing.
I was doing the timing for the car club over the weekend, and we had some historic cars entered.
The main one everyone was talking about was the blue one in the video, but the other one shown with it (cream in colour) is an old 1915(?) Indy car.

That thing is awesome, saw it at the Hawkes Bay hillclimbs a couple of years ago. 12.7 litres of low revving thunder! And the Woman that drives it is mad :P .

Glad to see someone else noticed that the woman driver is a nutter.
