Stunning Alfa Romeo GTA battles two massive V8 Ford Galaxie

Little v Large is the very heart of the St Mary's Trophy every year, 2013 was no exception, as an awesome little Alfa Romeo GTA in the hands of legendary Goodwood driver Frank Stippler, battled for the lead with not one, but two different Ford Galaxies, powered by massive 7.0-litre V8 engines and in the hands of nine-time Le Mans 24 Hours winner Tom Kristensen and ex-F1 and Le Mans driver Jochen Mass. #gwspeedweek #AlfaRomeo #Ford

There's no replacement for displacement... or is there?

[velocita]

A thousand times more entertaining than F1.

I love seeing those Fords being really put to it. You expect it from a small Alfa, not so much from the land yachts.

[jaredkennedy]

It just amazes me that these guys are out there actually racing these things and not just driving around the course.

[MastinoNapoletano]

I love how they powerslide and drift through the turns, that overtake towards the end was amazing, he just dumped that GTA into the turn and powered out, amazing! His size let him through that gap.

As an american and a ford fan, nothing fills me with more joy than seeing a massive Ford Galaxie battling it out with a little alfa and nearly winning. I love Bill Shepherds 58 Ford Thunderbird

"Nearly hits the tail of the Star Ship Enterprise there" "Headlights reflecting of the rear bumper, acres of rear bumper" made me laugh. I love how you don't steer a Galaxie, you look where you want to go and smash that gas pedal and back your *ss into it.

2:11 I like how this dude is just staring at the camera with a pink scarf, sunglasses and a beret. 🤣🤣🤣

[timothysmith]

Everyone else: Let's take off our bumpers to save weight
Galaxie: Hold my beer

[chadkimmel]

Am I the only one who is amazed by how well those Galaxies move around the track?

[ZIM]

3:18 I Like how the GTA is like "No! I am NOT getting sandwiched between two tanks! I pass NOW!"

[Arthurzeiro]

There's something seriously mesmerising about these vintage cars going all out inches away from each other.

[matthewalexander]

The 105 is an absolute legend... No other cars shape comes close... As old as it is!!!
And to think it's designer was 17 YEARS OLD!!!
BELLISIMA ❤❤❤

Goodwood road and racing, you have managed to reignite my interest in motorsport. After years of watching my favourite saloon car races descend into over regulated, kevlar clad manufacturer backed processions and demolition derbies, only to be ring fenced by pay per view channels I found your channel. Real motor racing, driven well without contact or team orders. Thanks for reinvigorating my passion. ♥️🚗🚗🚗♥️

Results of the race? Results!-- Goodwood Road and racing makes these wonderful little videos, but at the end of it, they never show the final results!-- all it would take, is one simple graphic four five seconds for 10 seconds, to show the final outcome of the race. They are so shabby about this. And, they never listen to the comments to improve their uploads!

This is one of the best examples of "It's the driver that matters, not the car"

[chriskelleher]

Mr Bean, Jochen Mas, Jackie Oliver, Rupert Wow, that's a group of people you don't normally see.

I grew up in a Galaxie house. We had a 63, a 64, a 66, and a 73/LTD. Nothing thrills me more than seeing a big boat like that thrashing through the turns.

[hipcat]

I regularly drive a BRZ, a Pantera, and a '68 Firebird. Despite the Firebird having a Hotchkiss suspension it still feels like I'm driving the Flintstone mobile compared to the other two. The skill the Galaxie drivers are showing powering those bricks through the corners deserves to be mentioned.

I was brought up around 61-64 galaxies. Mainly 63 1/2 like you see here, granted they weren't 427 lightweights. I live for these clips, all the lads out there do a fantastic job....keep em comin.
