'Driving Ambition' Mini Special Saloon Race 1984

Finally got round to copying and uploading this from an old VHS video tape of mine, recorded from the TV several years ago.

Mini Special Saloon Car race at Brands Hatch from the BBC tv 'Driving Ambition' TV drama series shown in 8 episodes one hour long in 1984 and repeated on UK Gold a few years later.
Current Mini Miglia racer Peter Baldwin was the 'real' driver of his own Ford BDA engined race Mini. Other 'real' race drivers of the time featured include Ginger Marshall and David Enderby.
