If you log onto the Autosport site, you will also see an ad for MotorSport Magazine. It has a Green cover traditionally for as long as I can remember except for one issue, and I "think" that was when Senna crashed. The tape is probably in PAL, but surely, in this day and age, you must know someone with a multi-system video. This issues cover shows Jackie Stewart driving a BRM P261, Jo Bonnier's P25 and Jean-Pierre Beltoise's P160B. It also has some fantastic photos in their adverts for historic cars, including a 1929 Invicta inside the cover, and a 1931 Invicta, and oodles of fantastic historic cars.
The tape is just unbelievable, and the very first shot of the Porsche (Aka Auto Union) GP car sliding around through a curve will bring tears to your eyes.
Make sure you get the tape with the mag. If you don't, let me know, and I'll see how I can help. I cannot continue to describe the tape to you, because you'll start crying in your beer. There is also a segment on Michelle Mouton driving the Audi Quattro, which is just unbelievable. She was the best Rally driver of her era, and it was a shame she missed out on the World Rally Championship through a minor malfunction in her car in the final rally.

By the way Ray, what was your reaction when you saw the tape for the first time?

Vitesse, I'm in Australia, and my copy carried the video. If hyphen is ordering a back copy from England, he would probably get the tape in PAL, which he must play on a multi-system video. I bought my VCR in Hong Kong, and all VCR's sold there are now multi-system.

Well, did you manage to get a copy of the video of The Auto Union Years from MotorSport? If you have any difficulty identifying the mag, I can scan the cover and send it to you by e-mail. It is definitely not the mag that you enclosed the cover of in your post above.
