Colin McRae Col de Turini Incar - SS12 WRC Rallye Monte Carlo 2002 

With Nicky Grist's voice it feels like I'm playing the old Colin McRae Rally games again

@Lyricoholic "Plus" means with your foot on the throttle, "minus" means with your foot off of the throttle. "Tightens" means that the corner gets sharper, "Opens" means that the corner becomes wider.

Nicky Grist is The Voice.

14:21 Look at that slide.

One of my favorite onboards of all time. 14:23 coming up over the col. The next 20 seconds going back down the hill are so epic.

10 years ago...that was a gold age of newly wrc. thank you amjayes. You reload my brain, again :-)

Nicki grist’s brings back memories from colon mcrae rally the game ‘…. Over finish’

J'adore la sonorité de la mécanique !! 😍 Ces envoûtants chants de transmission...

The more open or (slack) the diffs are the more noise they make, slow twisty tarmac stages require the diffs to be more open than normal to help the car get round the tight twisty corners, the more open they are the more drivetrain shunt you get on lift or braking! This is the the box, props, diffs and driveshafts all going from one preset setting to full lock all in a tenth of a second, effectively like engine braking but in this case the whole system in braking, remember this car had triple active diffs so the diffs are actively shuffling power from front to back and left to right depending on the corners and how much grip each wheel has!!! Hence the noise even when Colin is on and off the throttle through a long and bumpy corner!!! Not just banging down the gears, notice him thumb the red button on the shifter going down!!! This is locking all the diffs to help slow and stabilise the car under hard braking!!! and helps with disk and pad wear.

Colin is always a great inspiration

5:30 - Faster! - ok 5:38 - Faster!!

Thanks for this gift.

That's the sound of the blowoff valve I think...the 99-02 Focuses did that normally and I loved it

wide open all the time. Miss you Colin

Anyone 2020 December? :-)

the greatest driver on the greatest stage

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIncredibile!!!

Watching this one after watching Tommi's video is quite interesting, the car setup is totally different and the driving style obviously. Colin's car is totally loose, the front just goes everywhere he points and the rear helps the car turn while Tommi's rear is much more planted. Gotta admit this one is alot less boring! :P

14:20 to 14:52, soooo entertaining especially 14:41!!

This inspired so many of my drives to work in the morning although my driving is not quite as tidy as sir Colin's. Want NG on my sat nav :)

Col de Turini was quite dry that year. Sometimes its full of snow on the top.

@2:30 : How to turn right with steering wheel pointing on the left ! Pure Colin style :D

Aha. Thanks for cleatring this up

the downhill part is exciting! look how mcrae power-slide on slippery tarmac

holy shit thats a long stage haha

Pour cette video, youtube devrais metre les boutons "j'aime" et "j'aime"...

I got a mini champ of this car great investment for memorial for a great champion

La caméra est à peine trop haute dommage mais très belle bagarre avec le volant, c'est magique !

plus is accelerate soon out of the corner minus is accelerate when the corner ends

It’s like the shifter on my old Logitech wheel, lol.

@bornelaspt That is I think because youá watched his onboard with the Impreza and not the Lancer, is that right? :) Impreza was not so loose since McRae left to Ford, whilst Tommi´s Mitsubishi was also quite loose and he was driving it spectacularly too. This however is great - Colin, tarmac and that sound of the Focus

Courtesy of ewrc-results. Unfortunately, mechanical issues prevented Colin from finishing the stage, thus screwed Colin's chance to win Rally Monte Carlo. :/

No, that's the sound of the gearbox. These Focus used straight cut teeth on the gears, and that causes this sound.

@IloTimo also says "plus" and "minus" the same as when he says " 4 left tightens" or "3 right opens"?

Got used to seeing these mechanical sequential shifters nowadays with big travel and a firm pull required, and they seem to clunk rather loudly. This one really looks like a slight flick of a finger would get you a shift, I wonder how it was on really bumpy sections and stuff.

Do you have any onboard of Carlos Sainz and Luis Moya in this Rallye? Great Video!!

+Sergio B I'm guessing Grist means that the McRae should drive completely straight, but I'm not sure myself.

@AlejjSi Yea, Impreza 2002

@ 14:40 that was sick

It means take the racing line.

@cosminjur +1 you don't see petter counter streering except when negotiating hairpins - I like that he is careful - I want him to win (or someone to beat loeb!)

Straight cut gears whine!! They don't clunk like this! The noise you are hearing is drivetrain shunt, as the car goes down the gears the diffs all lock helping braking!!!

I would probably have hit the brakes at 7:24. Even on the games, where you can hit "restart"... lol

pliz 720p :-(

what did he means whit "plus" or "minus" ?

I wonder if there was something good on the bbq at 18:26 . Man, I'm hungry.

Just watched Loeb's onboard this very same stage, and the difference is huge. Loeb goes like if the road was completly dry!

thanks - foreversideways com

does anyone know what "line" in the pace-notes means?

man the onboard of Petter Solberg on this stage looks so timid

The gearbox sound like it's slamming something when he's downshifting?

Did Mcrae ever won a tarmac rally?

Pirelli Tyres :(

Colin "faster" McRae

You should want to see the real tarmac king, Sébastien Loeb, on this stage. This very same year he was lefting everyone behind...

To much grip :)
