Classic Car vids
 
The carchase scene in the movie Bullit is one of the classic car vids. Rendezous is another one. My own current top 5 of favorites, in random order , is:
- Climbdance
- Rendezvous
- Nordschleiffe in winter (not sure if that's the title, but it shows a Porsche on a Nordschleiffe which is covered in snow)
- Carchase scene in Bullit
- Tiff Needdel's review of the McLaren F1
Anyone any thoughts about other great car video's ?

I've never heard of climbdance. What is it about?

If you like Rendezvous, you'll like Getaway in Stockholm 2 as well. The car's engine sounds aren't as nice, but it sure is spectacular.

The Nordschleife winter video is superb! I love that one as well. Other Norschleife video's that I like are the one of the racing Elise chasing a Corvette and of two laps with Frank Stippler in a GT3RS during a 24hour race (both clickable). I also like the video of Howden Ganley in an F1 car (onboard) with comments from Jacky Stewart. I don't have a link for that, but I'm sure you'll find it.

EDIT: I forgot about the video of the yellow Porsche 911 RUF which I uploaded to the Video Vault. That is pretty awesome as well.

I agree with choose "Climbdance" as your favorite classic car vid.
My favorites are:
- Climbdance
- Stefan Roser laping the old Nurburgring in the RUF Yellow Bird
- Walter Rohr at the Pikes Peak with a 720 hp Audi Quattro (Similar to Climbdance but poor quality)
- Carchase scene at the begining in "The Cannonball Run" I & II

What vid is Rendezvous and where I could find it?
Other great vid is the Best Motoring“s 2000 Dream Car Battle (F40, F50, Diablo SV...) I hear talk about it in a forum here. Where I could download it?

Climbdance ?
That's a video which shows how Ari Vatanen sets a record on the Pikes Peak hillclimb, I think it was back in 1988.

Rendezvous ?

That's an old classic in which a ?Ferrari? roars across Paris just before dawn.

I like the Italian Job,(the old one)...Thats some classic stunt driving.

I sent in a video clip to Jabba of the chase scene from 'Bullitt'. Maybe if enough people ask for it, he may decide to host it in the video vault.

Dont forget the greatest racing film ever.
LeMans (1971) with Steve McQueen

also a new personal favorite of mine is the BMW short film STAR with the M5 directed by Guy Riche

Climbdance has to be the best by far......awesome driving, well filmed and great editing, no wonder it won so many awards
