Re: Lap Of The Gods 1966 Acropolis Rally Film
This film features Hopkirk in GRX 311D, Aaltonen in JBL 172D and Makinen in HJB 656D. Also DJB 92B is used as a press car that gets used for parts by one of the works entries. There is a smalll interview with Stuart Turner before the start of the rally and Paddy has a little argument with on of the officials about servicing his car within 200 meters of a check point.
Also to be seen are Roger Clark and Vic Elford in Cortinas, giving a preview of what was to come with the Escorts in the future. In the ladies cup their is Pat Moss on Saab and Rosemary Smith on Imp.
It's well worth a watch and is far better than the TV footage that you get of the WRC.
