A Little Bit Sideways - 1978 

The glorious days of rallying, awesome cars, great drivers and incredible fan following. Those days are gone forever. 8:15 - 8:27, Mr Escort RS himself, the late great Mick Jones, an incredibly brilliant mechanic who mastered the various Escort RS derivatives to great effect. Boreham's finest.

Heroes in wild Fords (& Vauxhalls, Triumphs, Fiats & Lancia's) - the golden days of rallying. I can't imagine they were always easy cars to handle under the circumstances.

This film was made by UMP, United Motion Pictures (they used white Ford Transit SWB crew buses with 3 litre Essex engines). It is a compilation of footage taken from the Grandstand TV rally reports. I think that this was the best period for motor rallying with so many different manufacturers entering the British Championship as well as the World Championship. I was exceptionally lucky to attend many of these rallies, and got paid to do so, as I was a staff sound recordist for UMP at that time.

Thanks 😊

Nuts! Is all I can say. Nuts! I rallied in Africa but regulations rallying with a couple of special stages but this is uncontrolled suicide. Impressive none the less.

I can't believe how privileged I was to live through this era of rallying. (and music) My idea of driving "quite slowly" and Tony Pond. RIP.) differ slightly.

I LIKED IT

Always a great sound from the BDA engines.
