I'd argue the final years of Group 4 were actually the best. Normal tuned rwd cars being spectacular, variety of cars and driving styles and techniques not used ever after thar, like putting 1/4 of the car over the cliff edge in Acropolis rally to get better corner line, because in rwd one of front wheels would not carry any weight in corner and the car could partly ignore there nothing under it.

Fellow Skoda fan here from Greece, it was about that time I discovered rallies as a little 10-year-old boy then through the minuscule coverage of WRC at greek television, the DVD copy of "Evolution of Rallying" that my dad gave me as a gift for my birthday, and of course Colin McRae rally PS1 games alongside V-Rally also for PS1 made me a lifelong fan whose nowadays is saddened by all the things we took for granted then and lost now. Many competitors, interesting personalities and fascinating rallies, I believe that modern WRC is too sterilized and tailored for TV coverage, whereas I believed that television should've adapted to the sport, overall we were lucky to experience these wonderful times because I don't believe that any kid will have a Thierry Neuville's Hyundai poster hanging in his room, I proudly sported my Fabia WRC poster for most of my teens and probably beyond...

@therobbinsnestAutosport Ай бұрын

@@PanosDCC that's really cool. Have you been to the Acropolis rally? That would certainly be on my bucket list if I lived over there, no doubt. We have a similar issue with TV coverage in the states. Back in this era, Speed channel would broadcast rundowns, or programs like the one these clips came from. Now, unless you have a rallyTV subscription, you are out of luck. I just wish the FIA would realize there are rally fans stateside. But anyway, I became a Skoda fan back in this era. The Octavia was huge and clunky compared to the other rally cars and was never going to win, but I honestly think that's why it appealed to me. Also, thanks for watching. I really appreciate it

If WRC was more like this these days then id watch it. The cars looked like "road" cars, the drivers were proper characters, the teams all had good driver lineups, so much drama, mistakes, mechanical failures. It just doesnt feel like that any more. Whats going on with all the fires?
