Fangio in a W196 at Sandown in 1978 (sort of a Goodwood of the 1970's) and Black Jack in a Repco Brabham, RACING !!!!!

Very good. Jack's car obviously much quicker so he was playing a little bit (didn't want to lose though) but you can still see Fangio's skill. Thanks

Yep, Fangio giving it some real speed and Jack allowing them to have some close racing, the difference between a 1955 Mercedes and a 66 Brabham at Zandvort for the Dutch GP (where both raced in 56 & 66) is about 10-15 seconds, not as much as I would have thought around a fast track like Zandvort.

Brabham obviously holding back, but it was a good race. Such smooth car control by both drivers! Classic.
