My favourite WRC video. I played this glorious 360p footage and soundtrack over and over as a young man when it came out. A lost era but truly wonderful and forever in my memory. It won’t ever come back. Oh yes, the song is a permanent fixture in my driving playlist.

When WRC challenged F1 for the greatest form of motorsport.

I love rally. I used to watch it all the time, but I hate the crashes. I don`t like to see people getting hurt.

It's crazy and the fans trust the drivers too much and just want to be as close as possible to the cars as they fly past.

Professional rallying? Most of those looked like amateur rallies to me, a bunch of crap cars being driven by idiots who couldn’t even navigate simple corners.

The Integrale demolishing the barn was an exceptional effort though

Oh come on crap cars, they're not WRC material sure and there are many club events of this nature. Sounds like you're not a rally fan anyway and lets face it, you learn by your mistakes not to make them again.

There use to be a thing where spectators would try to reach out and touch the cars as they went by (search - Killer B's). There are stories of cars have finger tips show up after a rally ......

Rally used to have a lot of crazy fans/spectators.
