I thought all of you GPL fans might want to hear about this.  I've had
this video for about 10 years call Ticket To Ride.  It is a video made
up of all on-board cameras in Lemans, Rally and Bike racing.  Well, the
last sequence on the tape is of Derek Bell driving a Porsche 956 on the
old Nurburgring circuit during a practice session for the last race held
there in 1983.  It has footage for 1 entire lap of the course.  It
really is fantastic, as well as the rest of the video.  I have still
seen the video advertised, but if nobody can find it, you might try
this.  On the back of the case, it says that it is from Powersport
Video, and it list a phone number of (818) 907-0590.  I don't know if
that # is still good or not, but you might give it a try.
  If anybody knows of any other videos of the old Nurburgring, please
let me know.  Thanks, and happy racing.

I belive the footage is the same as the one in the film "In car 956" whilch
feature Derek Bell driving all the tracks from the Sportsproto type venues
of 1983.
It got Le Mans, the Ring,  Silverstone, Brands, Kyalami, Fuji, Spa and some
more i think...

Excellent film if you ask me..
