1977 Lombard RAC Rally - Sutton Park Watersplash

Amateur footage from the 1977 Lombard RAC Rally stage at Sutton Park through the watersplash shot by my dad on 8mm film, which I have subsequently recorded from a projector with my digital camera.

There's a couple of minutes of footage of preparation before the rally cars themselves come flying (or not in some cases) through, pretty much in entry list order with the odd straggler here and there.
