I've cocked a rear wheel at least once, but never got it on two wheels like the white one in that picture.

I think this is strictly an ex-Nurburgring 24hr car (due to the position of the fuel filler), but it's another clip of one in action and having a bit of a bump in the process. Ooops. 
Not sure where this was filmed, somewhere in Eastern Europe I'm guessing.
Interesting to note that this Puma does not have working headlamps, but it does have a hole in the n/s headlamp, I guess to improve induction airflow.

Thanks Martin, that's great!
Shame these videos are not more widely available as obviously some of these Puma Cup races were televisied at the time.

Wow! More great footage. Thanks Martin! As you say, shame it's all crashing and no racing though! Wish I could have a copy of the DVD / video the guy is taking those clips from.
