LUNCH BREAK VIDEO // THE PASSING GAME



The above video was shot in 2005 during the first two laps of the European Historic Grand Prix at Zolder. Mark Schmidt is at the wheel of his Austin Healey 3000 MkI and having started at the back of the grid, is forced to make his way through traffic. Passing no fewer than 29 cars in the first two laps, watch as Schmidt leaps from the starting line, running the Healey's 3.0 liter I6 well beyond the redline, allowing him to pass a handful of competitors as if they were standing still. A great bit of driving accompanied by an incredible soundtrack. Enjoy! // [comment]

  1. Damn! He had a Vin Diesel "Fast and the Furious" start off of the line! I thought he was going to pass all 29 cars going into the first corner! :)
