He was laughing for a second or two then screamed like a 2 year old child as everyone pissed themselves laughing at his floppy hand,now that's RALLYING not this wrc stuff of today,wrc cars are in no way shape or form comparable to GROUP B cars,today's drivers couldn't cope with what GROUP B drivers had to cope with, if wrc is anything like GROUP B then it to would be banned!

So what you said is that Group B should have not been banned because fuck people dying right ? Henri Toivonen and Sergio Crest didn't die proudly. They died in a fire burning alive. I just hope they were unconscious. Toivonen left a wife and 2 children. Now, i do understand that it was fantastic to watch and it was a great age for rally in terms of excitement but don't romanticize it like it was terrible that FIA banned it. They were right. People were dying. The limits were pushed beyond peoples capabilities. @@garyfletcher8150

I can vividly remember Hannu Mickalla arriving out of the darkness at around 1am in his Audi Quattro in a bitterly cold Rhigos forest stage above Treherbert in the South Wales in the 1986 Lombard RAC Rally. Back in those days of the death throws of Group B Rallying the excitement and noise, brake discs red hot, huge turbo lag and backfiring of the exhaust as those Quattros sped by. Even though it's nearly thirty years ago, the winters were particularly cold, i think it was snowing or had recently snowed in the Rhigos area of the Valleys, and it only cost £4 to enter the stage. What have we got today, under powered almost production cars in drag, and being asked to pay £26 to enter a tightly controlled forest stage. Group B The days when rallying was exciting not like todays joke.

[@77chonyc]

RoisinT2 I thnk the big problem here is that this group of Rallying came out at the wrong time. It came out at a time when rallying events were too uncontrolled and allowed the crowd to stand dangerously close. I think instead of sacking this group B, they should have worked the events better and made it safer for the crowds. I dont see any other motor sport racing, where the crowd is close enough to actually touch the cars as they go by. So in the end, I dont blame the cars from being too fast, I blame the promoters of these events for failing to provide adequate safety for the spectators.

@Bobis Vajine So Max Verstappen entering the 2015 Australian Grand Prix at 17, making him the youngest driver to qualify for an F1 grid in the sport's history, isn't impressive? Please, tell me more about your achievements in motorsports, hater. @Jetara A LOT of adolescents who get started in motorsport come from some sort of wealthy background; how do you that they can afford to field teams and buy cars and equipment before getting a sponsor? You're clueless mate. Stop commenting such idiocy.

I've never watched this nor i was born at the time.. but this is pure awesomeness. It almost made me emotional like a beautiful melody

[@turbogedimashin3721]

Thank you Marvdogger2. Great music, great video, nicely arranged. When i need to concentrate i normally listen to classical music (Bach, Mozart, Händel ...). But to concentrate and to maintain high adrenalin levels i listen/ watch this video, ... in loop. From todays stuff, only some hill climb audios deliver a near experience. Unfortunately all actual WRC cars sound more or less the same. Not in Group B. The engines have very unique characters and behaviours, the way how turbos or superchargers spin in, take the lead in turns (S4), different rev bands resulting different gear ratios ... just adorable. A lot of variety. I actually am not a "in the past everything was better" person. but that era of group B and wild two strokes (RZ 500, RG500, TZR ...) will remain mesmerizing for many petrolheads of generations to come.

This may not be the best video on youtube, but I can't think of a better one

[@ELGlueckert]

I see more talent in this video, than what I would see in today's racing drives.

[@paul-d-mann]

Great to see my home town of Nottingham, UK represented here. The Lombard RAC Rally held special stages at various uk cities to allow better access for the public. Wollaton Park was one of these, and I remember as a 15 year old lad, visiting on one cold and wet November day to see Tony Pond give the Group B competition a run for its money in his mighty Metro 6R4.

[@Marvdogger2]

The golden era of the Rally GB where most people had a stage at least an hour away from their home. Not like now where its all confined to Wales. They should really bring back the "Micky Mouse" stages around the stately homes.

Superb editing and sound quality - thank you. Really captured the sound and soul of those most sonorous, spectacular, spine-tingling and dangerous Rally cars that ever existed. Well done and thanks for sharing. Great choice to finish with the 6R4 Metro - the best sounding of the lot despite its pig ugliness.
