The 1965 Documentary film (released as 'Mountain Legend') of the 1965 Targa Florio, a lesser known chapter in the Ford/Ferrari wars that consumed the second half of endurance racing in the 1960s. In keeping with the friday video's topic, there are some Porsche 904s as well!

I was impressed with how easily they made free-hand painting the numbers, on the cars, look, sans stencils.

"It's a very deflating circuit. I think it's good to come here once a year and get your sense of proportion correct. Otherwise you might think you're better than you are." Graham Hill with his usual sense of humor and humility. He often struggled here. Even at his peak, between F1 titles, 5 Monaco wins, an Indy 500 and eventually a win at Le Mans, this track humbled him.

He was a fine individual - having driven the route on assetto corsa (about the best way one can do so these days), it is an absolute bugaboo of a racecourse. Beautiful though - I'll put on some Matt Monro or the like, set it for a hazy sunset, and take a 250 California or 300SL for a few laps just to relax of a Friday evening.

Tremendous film of an era so rich in automotive history. Many of these drivers went on to great careers and lived very long lives. Others would not be so fortunate within a mere matter of years after this Targa.

It was certainly a much more dangerous period. Glad that the risk to life and limb is far lower these days

It's always been my favourite race, and the toughest. I read a good book about it in my youth many years ago when I drove Alfa's, who did well there in later years. As I recall, in one of the early races they were still racing after nightfall, and the driver in I think, the second car turned off his lights ( poor though they probably were ) so that the guy in the first car, I think, couldn't see that he was gaining on him. It always stuck in my head and the recollection always makes me smile. Great to see a film on the subject, Raymond Baxter narrating too! Great stuff!

I saw the title and thought, oh, brilliant, a film about one of the least filmed races and one of my favourites, which I know relatively little about. And only then did I see it's by one of the best automotive historians there is. Can't wait. 👍

Awesome and thank you for putting this gem on RU-vid. Despite the official race being no more, I think they still have historic rallies and Sim Racing is also keeping the legend alive. You can race the 1967 version of the track in a few sims and there is a 1973 coming soonish. I recently competed in a full length race on the 67 version using the 1967 Endurance cars for rf2. I drove a Costin Nathan 1l, or the cardboard car as the commentators called it😀 Huge concentration challenge but also safe in a sim😀

I believe this version of the track is available on assetto corsa as well - great way to unwind of an evening, as long as one picks something slightly slower than one's talent would generally allow for. Which for me means a pushcart. Haha

Not at all. Perhaps you need a head examination - I can recommend a phrenologist if needed.
