Awesome collection and amazing photos.
Have been lucky in my time as a rallycross marshal to witness most of the Grp B machinery being used up close and in full flight. Rallying and Rallycross has never been the same without them. |

Good point - but for me Grp B was rallying / rallycross. Being stood at the back of the grid at Lydden with 10 Grp B rallycross cars putting out approx 800BHP each is something that leaves an impression on you :thumbsup:
Having said that - the Grp A days of he RS500 touring car circus were pretty awesome too! |
will gollop's metro 6r4 was pure class and also sounded the bomb:woot:
|
Which one? 3.0L, 3.6L, 2.3L BiTurbo?
There's 2 cars which stick in my mind from that era. Arild Martinsen had a 4x4 BMW M3 with an IMSA GTP engine. There's Youtube footage of it leaving the line at Brands Hatch and leaving a trail of rubber all the way to Paddock Hill Bend. Jarmo Lahteenmaki had an Audi S4 - supercharged and turbocharged. The noises that thing used to make were unbelievable lol!! |

Also recall a guy racing a Chevy Monza in rallycross. This guy was partially paralysed from a rally accident, so raced this car fitted with a 2 speed semi automatic drag race gearbox. Only car I've ever seen beat a 6R4 off the line :thumbsup: |
