The Group B cars. Rallycross' finest hour!
-
Awesome! Great to see the monster Group B rally cars track racing. Those were the days! I was at Brands Hatch in '85 & '86 for the European and British GP's, and a Group C sportscar race in '86. The days of the turbocharged race cars were legendary. The Lancia S4 had both a turbocharger and supercharger. Insane!!!

rallycross started at Lydden because of the foot and mouth crisis in 1967. Rallying was cancelled using public forests and farmland so a one off event was created...on an enclosed circuit away from cattle. An instant success, won by Vic Elford in a Porsche 911.

Remember watching this live on the BBC, thanks for uploading.

THIS is rallycross! Lots of action (no bitchy judges), and a creative variety of cars. I would never expect a 700hp 4WD BMW today! Great video! :)

Loved watching the Rallycross from Brands Back in the 80s. I was probably even at this meeting.

This was brilliant to watch, I was there before druids. Schanche would take drifting on a new level, forget sideways, he'd be going backwards through druids and all in smooth control. He'd start 1st and finish first. Forget drifting, this was the best
-
Great video. Love how Palmer just abandons the car in the middle of the track there at the end!

I didn't know Rally Cross was that old... Awesome!

transition from dirt to asphalt is what makes racing

Nice to see the Group B monsters leading a life post WRC.

Never gets old

I enjoyed that. It seems the Dr missed his calling. He did extremely well considering it was his first rally-cross event.
-
Don't remember JP being in Rallycross!! This is PROPER Rallycross though, not the shit we get now! Was that an Xtrac Escort JP was driving?
