I saw the Group B’s on the RAC, and then the following year their replacement.
I was so that disappointed the second year, it took another 30 years before I went to see another rally stage
This ^^^^^
I was obsessed with rallying as a kid, all Group B stuff. Posters covered my room, signed stuff. ComputerVisions office was about a mile from my house, so the PR lady used to give me loads of 6R4 stuff. Was gutted at the end of 1986 when it finished. I remember watching the 1987 Monte Carlo – and as I feared it was a massive disappointment.
Never really followed rallying since. It got ok when the Lancia Integrale evolved. But meh…
From this….
To this…
Body language of the spectators sums it up. Having said that… spectator brain failure contributed to its downfall….
