Win or lose.
Put up or shut up.

1:30:03

- You got yourself a deal, Thorndyke.
- Splendid.

1:30:09

The drivers’ meeting is over.
Now the third race of the afternoon...

1:30:12

will get under way
here at Riverside.

1:30:14

You keep your eye on your friend
in the Bug, my dear.

1:30:18

I’m going to squash him.

1:30:19

Clear the grid:
Clear the grid, please:

1:30:23

I can’t help feelin’ yippy. If anything
goes wrong, we’ll lose Herbie altogether.

1:30:26

I thought you were the guy
with all the faith in this car.

1:30:28

Yeah, I got it. Yeah.

1:30:31

And now the starter
has his flag in the air:

1:30:33

The engines are started,
and in just a moment, we’ll have the start:

1:30:37

All the cars looking
very smart on the grid:

1:30:40

Drivers in the first row signify
that they’re ready to race:

1:30:44

Their hands extended in the air:
The flag is up, and there they go!

1:30:59

Cars stretching out now: All cars off
the starting grid and through turn one:

1:31:06

Through the S’s now:

1:31:21

going into the sweeper turn:

1:31:24

The rest of the field well stretched out
as they charge down the back straight:

1:31:30

Not yet, Herbie! Not yet!

1:31:39

The standings in lap 23: Thorndyke
still leading, Lesser running second:::

1:31:43

and Erwin in third place:

1:31:50

Now, Herbie! Now!

1:31:58

starts to make a move:::
