Wow! Just wow! I wonder how fast those cars are going if you account for scale. They've gotta be way quicker than F1 cars.

The commentator said it was scale speed of over 620 MPH. :shock:

I so do love that MG Metro 6R4. Something about a 3.0l V-6 at 9000rpm screams awesome to me. Love the 205 T-16 too. So many awesome cars.

Most of that footage is taken from a video I have called Best of Group B. 2 hours of Group B clips with no music... It's music to a rally lovers ears.

Is that the Stig ... when he's not on his Crotch Rocket? He's the only guy, except for maybe Max, that I figure would keep his helmet on in bed?

Sometimes I feel as if the people WORKING Tech Support (especially the ones in far off places) are more like Brother Ansgar, then the guy from this help desk.
