    Default Fun Van Diemen video from long ago

    May have been posted here already. But worth a summer rerun. Future world champ in it, at the very early stages of his car racing career.

    As the owner/driver of an 84 Van Diemen, I thought this was an insightful look at how my car was built way back in the day. And the interview with James Hunt was cool as well. Thanks for posting!

    If you haven't read Crashed and Byrned you should find a copy. Not only is it a great story about Tommy Byrne but there are a couple chapters that deal with Tommy's years driving for Ralph Firman. I wish Ralph would write a book about his racing exploits and the life of Van Diemen.
