    Never seen it before, thanks for posting! Safety was pretty primitive back then, even the open wheel guys did not always wear helmets, but it was a start...

    Love the way they mixed the alcohol with the gas, just shake the car to mix.

    That was cool as hell, but none of those roll bars were higher than the driver's heads. What good would they have been in a rollover?

    Yeah, the alcohol mixing was an interesting technique. I love the narrator's comments in those old videos.
