5800 rpm is a lot for a car (in those days)

Brillliant

Seeing real rallying like that shows why nobody gives a toss about wrc these days- Matt Wilson etc are girls compared with those guys!!!

Was that the year it started in Wembley. I remember following it (physically) in '79 when it started in Chester.

One word - "MAGIC"

Awesome. Real cars

Must admit I clicked on the 'Debut of Lancia Delta S4' video linked off that page, my god that's some power

No pace notes! Look how close the crowds were!

The TRs didn't sound right though! They were V8s but didn't sound like V8s!

Is it sad to admit I had goosebumps watching that!?

Never mind the driver entry list for the Roger Clark Rally look at the car entry list, 'scorts, Chevette's, Ascona's. .... and I loved that Toyota Celica ST !!! I wanted one of those in my youth! but couldn't afford the car and the insurance on an apprentices wage! nothing changes eh

I wouldn't mind that Stratos.

Nice link, how I miss my RS2000
