    The Portugese were complete nutters!

    Did I hear them right when they said "A million people attended the WRC RAC Rally"?

    Appears you sold it better than me;

    Was a good programme, didn't dumb it down at all.

    Whatever the era I still think tarmac spec rally cars are amongst the best looking of any cars. All go, no show.

    I'll agree with that. Rally cars in Tarmac trim look the absolute nuts

    Awesome, simply awesome. Some of Walter Rohrls comments were very interesting indeed.

    Just watched it, it was great, struck a good balance between "Group B was awesome" and "Group B was dangerous". It was good having some of the big name drivers interviewd in the show, Ari and Walter especially
    Its gone!

    Yeah, me too

    Really, really enjoyed that. That Portugal footage was just unbelievable, how could you drive at full tilt with crowds like that on the road is beyond me.

    The drivers and the spectators had balls of steel!
