I personally prefer sportscars to F1, but the production quality and resolution is so good on the F1 races, that it's hard for me not to enjoy it, even if it is a political circus!
DS , 19,000 rpm , gotta love it !
Massa just got too agressive , maybe he needs to mature or chill . He's as good as Kimi , just not as calm . I think he has an inferiority complex and pushes too hard .
We're going full force on the Chris Cat .
Go Ferrari !

You can buy a small viewer gizmo - at a photo shop - and put each slide in that - then scan directly from the slide -

Finaly I have been able to make some still shots of this 1973 super 8, video I have. These were taken at the 1973 Sam Griffith Race. The start looks to have about 40 to 50 boats in it, check out the Plane [in the middle pic] next to the boats at the start. Sorry that they are a little fuzzy but it's 35 years old.

Anyone remember this boat Satan's Finger, the year around 1973. Looks like it would be one wild offshore ride back then.

Looks like a Formula Jr. same as what Bill cooper built from Calif. Remember the 20` formula jr.( Snoopy ) where the guy Daryl Jenkins rode behind the boat, so that the boat could qualify to run APBA UIM class. Maybe that was the boat prior to Snoopy, and then modified as history shows???????????????????
