The blur hurt my eyes! Shame the lack of light stretched the capabilities of the Super-8 a little too much.

If we'd had iPhones, back in the day, there would be endless hours of Track Day video. Especially Goodwood, we were there every week from April till October. I was there twice in one week, which also featured Cadwell and Mallory Parks. Phil Todd was out at Goodwood three times in one week!
We were into riding the track and VHS video cameras were huge, and crap quality against modern standards.
High adrenaline days, high definition was restricted to 70mm cameras, back then.

Saw this on a website called Laverda Forum ( :cool: ). It was in the slideshow of the home page.

No disrespect to the owner if they see this, but I couldn't help thinking what a horrendous setup of the gear lever and rod assembly!! Lever travel on up/downshifts must be about 100mm! Looks like it might have race pattern shifting.
