You can't, I think. I looked into it a while ago and even did a thread here (don't worry, I'm not telling you off for doing the same) My findings are this:

Those 80s and 90s BTCC videos were produced by a company called BHP, and not Duke, and as far as I can see they don't exist anymore. Now because Duke make DVDs for everything else I emailed them to ask about new releases of old BTCC, afterall you can get old rallying DVDs. But they never replied to me.

I think somebody said BHP was/is owned by Stever Rider, but I've not been able to confirm that. Nevermind that though, if BHP no longer exists surely somebody somewhere owns the rights to that footage and it would be worth a lot of money if they licence it to DVD. I hope they do soon.

I got a DVD called BTCC - The First 50 Years via Ebay a while back although I have not watched it it does focus quite well on the Super Touring era.

Found on Amazon here http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/B0024ITW64...

I'm on a mailing list of a guy that seems to have a lot of rare motorsport DVD's, if you PM I can send it on when he sends it next?

Duke do 1994 or 1995 onwards, but then that is mid 90's.

I've got a box of old motorsport videos indoors. Certainly got some late 80s BTCC stuff in there, amongst other things (F3, MG Rovers etc). Trying to offload them without just throwing them in a skip, so anyone is welcome to them for the cost of a stamp!
