VIDEO: Le-Mans Classic 2012 Lola T212 With Neil Primrose
Here's 'our' Neil Primrose – Travis drummer and Road Magazine racer and road tester – letting rip at the Le-Mans Classic 2012, in his amazing Lola T212, with a cockpit camera showing a perfect clean lap in the last race. The start of the video shows just how fast and long some of Le Mans straights are and it seems likes Neil's out there on his tod, with no one passing him... Then, at around 2:30, things get hot and Neil's extreme pace in the Lola is revealed, as he makes other quick cars look ordinary. Quality stuff Neil. Find out more via http://www.islaracing.com/. Neil has been racing the Lola T212 in the CER Championship, and a T290 along with legendary driver John Sheldon, with over thirty appearances combined at Daytona, Le Mans and Sebring etc. The lads are sponsorsed from BID Industrial Doors in Bolton, Greens Plus Health Foods, SRLV Accountancy, Steinhart Watches from Germany and Nimbus Motorsport. Good luck for the rest of 2012 Neil and John. You're flying!

VIDEO: Gary Hawkins Corvette Stingray Brands GP In-Car
Check old this fabulous slice of in-car imagery and old-skool-cool car racing, shot by Gary Hawkins (see more of his great work here: http://www.ghp.moonfruit.com/) of Christian Dick fighting his way around Brands GP Circuit in a 1970's Corvette Stingray. The racing took place in the Heritage Grand Touring car Challenge at the MSVR GP Weekend. Quite a handful of a motor, with third and forth gear oversteer – in and out of the corners, even on the straights – on the back side of the GP track. Fabulous retro racing stuff. Imagine what it's like in the wet!

VIDEO: Best of Sabine & Klaus Nurburgring 24h Rennen 2012
Want a behind the scenes of what life is like for Sabine Schmitz and Klaus Abbelen entering the best endurance race on the planet – das Nurburgring 24h Rennen? Check out this video, watching them travelling around the fans on their music float pre-race, doing the warm-up parade lap waving at the fans, then letting rip over the Nordschleife in the Frikadelli R Porsche 911, day and night, dicing with the best endurance cars and racers on the planet. No wonder they always do so well and are such a popular team with the crowds. And if you think the 24-Hour is all about taking it steady... forget it. Watch the overtakes on this... especially at night. Jeees! R-E-S-P-E-C-T!

VIDEO: Graham Prior Mazda R100 13b Rotary Dragster
We are big circuit fans at Road, and even bigger special stage fans... challenged by the thrill of cornering, especially on tricky tracks and even more so on loose surfaces. But we don't subscribe to the 'straight lines are dull' camp, oh no! And here's some proof of what a challenge driving proper drag cars can be – with various angle raw footage of Graham Prior's awesome Methanol-fueled, 13b Turbo Powered R100 Dragster, Driven by Craig Dyson, at the V4 & Rotary Nationals held at Fram Autolite Dragway, Meremere, New Zealand. Just look how much work the driver has to do for such a quick quarter mile... what a buzz!
