What are your favourite group b rally car? Mine is audi quattro
was the audi really so good
or was the Lancia Stratos better?
rs200
lancia stratos is really good, but i love the sound of the audi
I am a bit biased
205, really good too
The Celica
>stratos
>group b
stay underage
Did someone remember this car?
Audi has the best sound
I saw a Nissan 240RS replica for sale recently, for €13,000 had the FJ24 and everything.
Really made me think... about cashing in the gf's life insurance policy
>group b
just a bunch of overpowered meme-cars
why doesn't anyone ever remember groups a and n
really better than current wrc sound
Certainly. Horrible, but fucking rare.
group n was always for poorfags and apprentices
group a was pretty based as there was so much factory involvement, kind of like touring car racing at the same time.
the early-mid 90s was a great time for motorsport in europe, australia and japan.
i imagine it was like that in the 60s in america.
but group b was special for it's sheer insanity and danger and the excitement.
it was bigger than f1, and who cares about rallying now?
lol they bought most of them back to crush them and hide the shame
for a sound that, at least, resembles this beautiful sonic creation that propagates from the bowls of german iron, buy a golf, insert s2, smile forever.
>lol they bought most of them back to crush them and hide the shame
Well, they didn't build 200 in the first place. And of those they DID build, suddenly half vanished, before even being put up for sale.
...

...
...
oh thanks, i only know there's a lot less than 200 around
...
OMFG, the MG Metro 6R4, really beautifull too
why is this not the best?
...
It never ran in B spec.
>Group S prototype quattro hack-job
Not really beautiful from close up. But magnificent shitbox nonetheless.
but it met the specs. im sure they would have ran it.
Renault 5, used by Carlos Sainz, the rally legend of my country
>im sure they would have ran it.
Well, yeah, that was the plan after all.

she ugly
Ran for the first time in 30 years last weekend. Audi shipped it directly to the event, last minute decision to run it (though, well, it was capable of running. Sounds more like they planned for some time to have it have a go).
Röhrl at the wheel. It was glorious.

'course, it didn't run full blast. But that was to be expected.
Also there, but just as an exhibition 2 of the 3 222B Toyota MR2s
Really need to get the pictures from my cam someday soon.
so its still ugly. wow its got some close gearing
yes they cancelled the race series due to lack of uptake.
...
...
>so its still ugly.
Form follows function. I love it, but yeah, it's certainly ugly.
Eifel Rally Festival had 60 full on Group B cars, several Group B and S prototypes. 130 rally cars in total. Fucking amazing event.
...
...
205 T16 was just beast. Audi Quattro had the godly engine sound, but the T16 had everything else.
Also the 205 is the greatest hothatch.
...
we should probably meet up, talk about 205s and fuck some time
...
...
total underdog, but rotaries for life yo.
...
no fwd in group b? I guess fwd really is shit after all...
muh dick
oops
Yes, I too enjoy going slower and burning more fuel.
You just don't GET it.
i find the street version more sexy
People forget that Group B wasn't exclusively 800 hp special built monsters. This thing also met homologation and while it surely wasn't the quickest it gets tons of sympathy points for its enthusiasm and offroading spirit.
A
Fucking
Truck
>modified car race event
>bring an ugly heavy truck
FUCK OFFFFFFFFFF
I'll fuck right off into the direction of the finish line.
My nigga
Because fwd sucks and is for losers
thank you captain obvious. why don't you post something worth reading for once? please?
Fwd sucks
This.
The Ausid wasn't actually good at all. The only reason it had a fleeting moment of success was because it was the only AWD competitor when it first came to the stage. Even the, in its second year it was beaten by a 2WD Opel...
>Ausid
wtf auto correct?
