[Closed] Group B Rally cars.....

I have saved this one for Friday as it's a bit long, but what a watch for anyone interested. I must admit to not knowing a lot about Group B other than the cars that it left us, until i watched this, It conveys just how minmindbogglingly Batshit crazy it was.

Imagine the TDF crowd up Alp d'huez with formula one cars whizzing past at 100 MPH and you get the idea. Its amazing appeal was also its downfall. After watching this it is hard to see how they could have carried on with it.

A few other interesting things in the vid....The XJ 220 was built by jag to compete in Group B road racing against the likes of the Porsche 959, but the demise of the Group B rallying put paid to the road series as well.

Enjoy

and to finish with....Whats your favorite Group B car ?

Well if you had of asked me before watching this I would have said the Lancia S4 of course, but I think i have changed my mind

I give you the mental Peugeot 205 T16
