1987 - British Rallycross GP, Brands Hatch 

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!!!

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

The Group B cars. Rallycross' finest hour!

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.

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

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! :)

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

transition from dirt to asphalt is what makes racing

Never gets old

Great video. Love how Palmer just abandons the car in the middle of the track there at the end!

I enjoyed that. It seems the Dr missed his calling. He did extremely well considering it was his first rally-cross event.

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

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

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?

a wide variety of motors andas subtle as a house brick massive power. love it! come bzck Murray.

this is racing. short and sweet!!!!

more of your up[loads Andy pelase, always good and clear

nice to see this , i was there :P

I was there too Ste :)

Real cars !!!

Much more exciting than F1

the best times 😩

god i love youtube

real racing

real spectator sport murry makes it even better

Look at those flames...............My god you can hear the lag from the turbo's too on the inboard footage.......

Epic onboard footage yet they barely showed it !!!

No joker laps.....much better!

In car cameras SUCK. Great content.

Actually Rantanen had no chance of avoiding the collision with smith on the final start. He was standing on brake when smith changed his position from middle to inside. Smith should have watched his mirrors better and it was purely his own fault. What a pity tho.

Jeez TWIN TURBOS on the 6R4 which were already 600hp when normally aspirated and it still can’t beat a MKIII escort 🤣🤣 brilliant

£200 grand Peugeot again in 87 and it's got universal salvage on the wing lol

‘Walker’ No smoking allowed in the Escort !!!! Not as if it’s a Doctors waiting room, eh Dr Palmer 🤣🤣🤣

700hp twin turbo metro .... that was fuckin 87 , makes you wonder what Palmer had under his right foot

Don't make them like that any more

Why is everything going backwards?..Concorde, fastest passenger plane ...gone...Japan has the bullit train we have....Basically Thomas the fecking tank engine...cars now are shit in comparison to then, first they all look the same and then..OK they have half the horsepower and are a fraction faster but imagine if they were running 650bhp with modern chassis and suspension!!!.

I was there! Great racing not seen these days.
