johnny g Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I saw this! Crazy sideways action. Some brilliant driving, but I think also, some over-driving - great viewing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobius Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 always liked old school RWD rally action what I grew up on, I think rallying lost its way a bit with 4WD though it is still good to watch. try this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL4YIBelos4&feature=related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 great cars, and nice vid. I can remember nearly crashing into one of those a couple of years back that was parked down my girlfriends old road, my old renault 19 lost grip in the ice at like 3mph due to some stupid woman pulling out, causing me to hit my brakes and it just slid down the road and missed it by about a cm!

Willson Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 ...... I didnt know they did racing like that - rallying and touring cars combined. That looks fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty71 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Great vid... This is also a great watch from the late 80's BTCC at its best F4eeHBvpjdw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I didnt know they did racing like that - rallying and touring cars combined. That looks fantastic! It was great in the late 80's when all the banned group B rally cars moved over to Rallycross, they raced on a track which was a mix of dirt and tarmac. Racing was always very tight and there was a lot of contact, back then we use to sit on a grass bank just behind the tyre walls, looking back it's a wonder non of the spectators were squished by one of the cars.
