( a little late to this party, sorry )
 
Ya gotta admit, the Countach runs away with it after it gets past the Pantera.
 
Also, FWIW, that's a chick driving the Daytona that spins at about 7:30.
 
Click on the 2nd video, you see some dude picking up a 246 at the factory and 
it's in a crate.  Flash forward and the same one-owner car is driving around 
Japan.  Apparently the woman who spun the Daytona is now the widow of the guy 
who picked up the 246 at the factory.  Maybe some single guys here ought to 
investigate this further...

Hi guys,

Okay, here's something from WAY out in left field!

It's a supercar race held at Suzuka, Japan in 1978.  Lamborghini Countach 
and Miura, Ferrari Daytona, Corvette, Porsche 911, and both regular and Gr4 
Panteras all taking to the track at the same time, fighting tooth-and-nail, 
in the rain!

The Pantera kicks ass! But the Countach driver has bigger balls, and when 
the Pantera got balked (ironically, by a slower Pantera), he gets by and 
pulls away for the win.

Great footage nonetheless!
