Darren,

Many Thanks for posting these, have fond memories of Gerry screaming sideways around the Fosters hairpin at Donington.

I haven't actually watched the videos yet but is the 2nd one, "Race Preparation" a film of Gerry taking on fluids at the nearest ... pub

Nope

It's actually Bill Blydenstein talking about the building of Baby Bertha in the workshop, the performance so far that season, Big Bertha the year before and Old Nail's winnings (also in the garage in the background). Filmed just a day before the race at Oulton in the other video. I think it's from a Castrol sponsored promotional film.

Super stuff, my friend Ian Richardson used to race against Gerry when Ian was in his Corvair Super Saloon (based on M8/M20 Can Am running gear). Great to see the Skoda Coupes doing there stuff too, i spent many a year trying to improve the car to make it fast enough to beat Tony Sugden in his 130RS. Oultons a bit safer now.
