The most exciting move in racing is the pass. The ability to out wit, out muscle, or simply out drive your opponent is an awesome spectacle to watch and it has kept racing fans glued to their seats since the dawn of motorized competition. Many of the passes you will see here were executed in cars worth millions and in some cases, 10s of millions of dollars. Not that it makes them more exciting but it certainly lends to the butt clenching moments when the racers are inches away from one another at speed on the track.
The moments range from the intense to the comical. The #1 pass is absolutely fantastic in every way and unless you are a hardcore follower of the Goodwood Revival, the manner in which it happens and the vehicle in which it happens in will make you smile. Jags vs Ferraris, Cortinas vs Galaxies, and more Jags vs Shelby Cobras among other battles are highlighted here.
Weirdly we don’t have the desire to run around the globe to see many races but this is one of them. Hell, a couple month long sojourn to England to take in the Festival of Speed and the Revival would just be dandy, right? Guess we should start playing the lottery now and hope that the returns are positive.
The competition is good, the cars are better, and the drivers are even better than that.
