From 25th to 1st in a Mustang? Yep.

The must be a vintage or Wanker class or a track day when cars are not classed.

Although the Mustang seems to over power the other cars, I think that if the other cars were driven at the same level as the Mustang, it would not seem so fast.

And.... Did ya'll notice his hand position on the wheel? - NEVER varied. I think I have a new hero. That wasn't passing Porsches, that was blowin' their doors off :) Edit: Not much aero on that Mustang either.

Does anyone know the engine details? And what is the brake tapping when he's on the power in the straights?

Probably to extend the calipers after the pads got knocked back in the corners.

I watched a video of a guy driving a similar vintage 911 around Spa, and he visibly had to pump the brakes up in preparation for a braking zone.  And 911s didn't have flexible axles and wheel bearings that would get noticable end play under load.  (My "big bearing" 9" will have about .125" of side to side runout.  Made me wish I'd sprung for a full floater, or been able to run drum brakes)

Makes sense to me.

Y'all talking about his horsepower advantage do realize how truly antiquated that vehicle is compared to a 911, right? He flat out out-wheeled those guys.

To make the passes made, the car was faster out of the corners by a lot.....  that’s not all power.

Olly Bryant is one of the fastest English vintage racers, and a Ford V8 specialist. Watch some of the Goodwood Revival or Goodwood Members Meeting vids on youtube. He is super fast and super aggressive. Not afraid to bend a million dollar (pound) car either. Way more "racer" than most U.S. vintage racers such as seen in the HSR video.

In reply to TurnerX19 :

I believe that based on his speed out of the corners and the way he attacked the first infield turn off the Daytona banking.
