Rally Group B - Tribute 

Dude I thought you were dead! Historically the best artists in the world die before fame.

You forgot to mention the greatest rally driver in the group b. The Michele Mouton, who was a girl and was beating all the “men”.

@@Dodger0103 she was not the best, she is an amazing rally driver and also was a great woman drivee but she was not the best on group B

The idea that anyone wants to hear stock music over car engines spent too much time indoors.

Only if the marshalling was crap

Don't wanna know how many people died by one mistake, one driver hitting the brake too late. The crowd looks borderline suicidal nowadays

😂

@@Eyck-head haha

And mfs still have the nerve to dislike it

Oh,rainbow six siege? Hey,im playing it too! And i dont know if group b cars will beat ferrari,maybe f430,in straight line the ferrari would won but in corners.... in corners group b cars will beat any cars that are allowed to drive on the street

Ferrari did a group b car actually, the 288 gto, but they banned the class before it was ready.

@@Your_nearest_toyota_dealer B group cars accelerated 0-100Kmh under 3 sec and 0-200 in like 10 seconds. Not many ferrari can do that even today

@@Shampsuli i dont know much about italian supercars

@@Your_nearest_toyota_dealer group b cars was 700kg and over 700hp+

Yea right, Europe had Cocaine, crime, cool music and bad teeth.

Here in europe we had a fight between manufactures. A fight only the strongest and fastest car would win

*"Here in Europe we fight with ourselves in a group that's purpose was to stop that"* - me

So sad but so true.

Uh... go to a historic rally event.

Indeed.

I'm copying someone else's comment here: "DON'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S OVER, SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED."

So true

Peugeot: Were you expecting us not to?

Porsche: Guten Tag gentlemen.

Ferrari: care for us to join? Citroen: Bonjour, need another lad to fight?

Taselukaneta actually its lancia: Jenkins! BRING THE SUPERCHARGER!

Speed Star Ford: Mind if we cut in?

TRUE !!!

Audi was like : We are, no men !

Touring Car(Group A)

WRC is for boys... Group B for men... he was wrong, definitely wrong!!! Michele Mouton her driving and her eyes... Best in group B!

Et bordel, il en fallait une sacrée paire !!! Respect, Michèle !

*Also the Dad* : cries harder than his son when watching the video

I understand......

yes..

A dad raised in the 80s: I understand.

I also cry when watching the 90's dtm on nordschleife video

Indeed.

I’m abit late, but comment of the year.

Beautiful, isn't it

Couldn't be put better.

This sport touched a lot of people literally 😂

how lucky he is to have experienced it first-hand.

Blomqvist was amazing.He was champion this year 38 years old😁

@@kristerjonsson6028 Who is he? Some guys in the comments said that is Michelle Mouton.

4:42 - dear god, reaction, also says it all :)

@@moneytron4143 it was Mouton, Sanremo 1982, she won the race.

Ari vatanen Manx rally

It's because he saw Michele Mouton, not for the car !

Šimon Hříbek you mean mg not metro

Don't forget nissan

Peugeot fell down so hard - those cars are piece of garbage, but that's why they're cheap :]

But Audi hold their title so hard xd

Šimon Hříbek I

Same also bro👍

Now we are three

tottally agree

tears came down my eyes when i see that quattro audi!

Currently I have a Peugeot 106 from 1992 and would not trade for any car in the world ... Auto has a soul, and no one can deny. Do not sell it for any money

Respect and repairing old cars. Do not take their lives ....

Szymon Kacprzak repairing old cars does not take their lives...it continues it

Same mate

Yeap. Same....

Same here.

In person, it was ridiculously fast and loud. Now, on youtube, it's still ridiculously fast and loud.

Frigging awesome though. RIP to the people who died and all. I still find it hard to enjoy motorsports today.

Mark their is many younger generation who get rather worked up(angered or insulted)by comments like yours mine and many others, mainly the younger generation of the WRC fans, some that in the wording it appears would like to beat you and myself senseless with our opinions, so try and word things in a milder or careful way as they might want to stone you to death and myself and others alike if you put GROUP B above WRC as they might send their vigilante groups who might track you via Facebook, something I don't bother with thank god! Again " personally I agree with you on your comment but some certainty don't, Goodbye sir!!

wtf u try to say? Wrc is for pussies, those are nothing like group b cars

@@garyfletcher8150 you're insane

@@cq5085 thanks !

Group B wouldn't be able to repeated again. Those monstrous 4 wheeled coffin are still too dangerous even with nowadays technology. Those drivers in that era can be described as an legend, a modern gladiator that playing with Angel of death.

Yes mate always do

ThatWhiteSTi i think i just wet my pants a little... and the sound of these beast cars is pure music. Juha was absolutely right.

ThatWhiteSTi I get tears, a lot of them

Makes me wish I was alive when they raced.

ThatWhiteSTi Im crying now ;p

Great comment, really reminds me a tiger jumping over his prey.

austindorf83 me 2

That's what you call drifting. On the edge omg fantastic drivers.

Divenire by Ludovico Einaudi is the song name.

austindorf83 those cars and the drivers who droved with the cars are legends.

Me 2 man

Thank you very much..

Brilliant words! GROUP B was a one in a life time experience, they (personally) were the most insane days of any Motorsport, some might disagree but wrc although technologically superior, but in terms of entertainment,health and safety virtually Zero, pure power without any restrictions like today's wrapped up in cotton wool society and the ability to touch the things (if you had the balls) the drivers having the balls to even drive the things like the S4 with the petrol tank under both driver+co arse plus the handling of one that was at times as controllable as a shopping trolley are far superior than today's wrc,the list is endless,anyway! DON'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S OVER, SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED.

+Mechtech505 because safety, enviroment.... god i wish this times where back!!

me too man, me too. I loved the group c le man cars that could do 253+ mph. those kicked serious but

+Mechtech505 Baja 1000 are not that far from this...

well the Baja is more of rocky and sandy offroad, this is dirt trail rallying with drifting and smaller jumps, plus there are faster than baja

True, the crowd splitting while the cars pass by reminded me of it.

Same, i am born too late too but i kbow for a fact, today cars are made through political crap regulations and market segments and shit. back then cars were made with a passion

Same, in born in 2006. But at least i experienced the 2000s car culture. But I would give everything to go back in time, see a race in group b

You arent the only

Lucky to been born in Sweden, värmland i -67. The rally was just around the corner. And it was loud and fast with all the great drivers.

In my humble opinion these are the greatest drivers of them all

@@benward1347 agreed

he did it pretty well

I was looking for that comment! Crazy!

That was my first impression aswell. But in hindsight it could be an optical illusion that he was THAT close. He probably jumped to avoid the dirt and small rocks. Still madness though, crazy spectators xD

Remember, the 80 and 90 were the last decades when men were real man:(

#Revive_the_golden_Group_B_Era

they really should, because technology advanced so much since we could probably have 2000+hp cars doing 0-60 in less than 1second and them having a 300mph+ top speed.

Its should not come back. It was to dangerous many people died and wiht all the safety that would be needed today grop b would just not be the same.

@@tiborfoldi6762 People die watching or driving what they love. If I was there I couldn't ask for a better way to go.

@@tinycockjock1967 I know that and I love it aswell but regulations happened and it was consiedered as to dangerous. I would LOVE to watch group B but it will never happen

So underrated comment

mostly turbo in these cars with insane Anti-lag that destroyed the turbo by the end of the race

Yes. Lancia S4 was supercharged and turbocharged, right?

Lancia s4 both of them

I came here after watching that one.. Need the longer footage ya know

Geht mir genauso. Eine irre Zeit. Leider gibt es das nie wieder. Irgendwie wird gefühlt alles nur noch schlechter...

Thank you...

if u wanna see more amazing group b footage, search "group b finland" and watch the video with the 205 in the thumbnail, it's excellent

The music ruins it. I want to hear the sound of the cars. Why add such crap music??

Yea except it's stolen and a music track played over another. Here's the original with the original music track. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JG9yfutJ254.html

@@Icemanrider1 ye dude really good job with the video ! epic footage great editing sound when it's needed in good balance with music :D good job !

Couldn't agree more

Wrong use of words, no one was willing to die, sounds like suicide. They knew the risk, and were willing to take the risk. Only two drivers and one co driver died during the Group B World Rally period.

We don´t have drivers like this already

There were regulations, just less than nowadays, haha!

These people were probably scared out of their balls but i dont think any other thrill can get close

They are the real drivers. Unlike todays that is assisted by technology. And people still believe they are best driver than the drivers in this video.

Imagine what they were thinking when they drove so fast passing all these hundreds of people and feared that with just one little mistake it could end up in mass murder by accident.

They still spectate.

@@IhateMTVandVIVA who would be responsable tho ?

Too dangerous, It's fun but the driver himself is already frustrated

And in the end this era ended badly due to a serious accident😥

Im watching in 2021, and i saved teh video to watch forever.

I wasnt gonna cry, but then i qent and read your comment

@@ReindeerD feelsbadman.jpg

Still crying in 2024 and im 37

Nikdave97 for me nothing will beat the 037, the Quattro is nice to look at but the Lancias were just sheer perfection.

Quattro is porn for me but the Lancias are Adriana Lima going crazy on a beach for me, if you get the drift

Nikdave97 And so powerful too. How many bhp? 400 bhp or something?

aimps19 between 500 - 600 depending on which year

The sounds it makes are the sounds i make when i orgasm

In my opinion, they had balls of TITANIUM to drive like that.

They're lucky to still have their titanium balls

hope their titanium ball didn't fuck up weight dispersal

good point

Nah mate they had carbon balls, gotta keep the weightreduction

People like you give me hope! :)

I think the scene of 6:30 is even more beautiful

@@mullerman1104 yes

Legend Michele Mouton.

Blomqvist is/was amazingAnd Waldegård too

+rob poynter * cough * Its not as if they *won this years Rally Dakar*... They had a few lazy years, but they're on their way to former greatness (i hope)

+Paul S. yeah they seem to be trying. the dark days seem to be behind. They also broke the pikes peak hill climb record last year.

yep, I almost forgot about that. Sébastien Loeb beat the old record by 1 and a half minutes

+afa1515 Oh Lancia.

Ahh...times eheän Audi Quattro ment something special... Nowdays it's nothing special if you have modern quattros, even my mom, 64 yrs, have one :D

Jack T the cars had balls

You NEED to have balls to become a spectator, which most people don't have today 😪

Today there are barely some people with balls. Most are jus whiny oversensible pathetic freaks who dont want others to have fun because they themselves are too afraid of any fun.

@@egorence2149 😆😆😆

The Spectators had balls but they didn't have common sense

Jesus isn't a real person so he can't be a racing driver... 😁 These days the cars are great, the drivers are great. That's for sure... In the old days the cars are monsters and the drivers were gods....

***** well mcrae raced at dakar too so... his not wrc only not sure about loeb tough

and one woman: Michelle Mouton :)

tigersharkot indeed cant forget her

***** The magic is gone, thats all

Yes! You Are right

In the UK it's sad - they gave up after the Delta and withdrew to the continent, never to return. It's like they finally built a practical and very fast hot hatch that didn't rust, but it was too late.

Mikael K Its amazing history...

only car i liked after their rally days was the Thema 8.32 with the Ferrari V8

***** For me it would be the 1972 Lancia Beta Coupe, I know it rusts like a shipwreck but I live in the desert

***** The drivers with the most skill, with the biggest balls and crazy enough to floor such powerful cars on a dusty road ... how not to love this?

True words! Respect!

+Andreallen4 Well, though, the sub-title of Group B being for "men" vs boys is a bit off, at least where Michelle Moulton is concerned! I would've loved to see what she could've done in a F-1 car...

NurNordschleife now its all about how well can a computer on wheels can keep you safe not how well a friver can drive like it used to be i miss group b

Cars back then weren't computerized they were real authentic amazing they had real steering so you could really get a feel for the cars and feel every bump of the road but now we have computerized steering and it just doesn't feel the same cars are bigger and heavier and have more wires running through them you get an Audi or BMW from today it just won't feel the same Cuzz now companies are aiming towards luxery you get a new Audi or BMW it will have crazy issues in 4 or 5 years cuz that's how technology is they are too complicated an not simple like they were back then

Yeah, along with Lancia Delta S4 and the 037 Evo ! Best cars from the group.

But really the Quattro looks and sounds so good ;) good old cars. The new cars will not be the same

+Peder Hansen true. But spec b has something about that makes it so.....special

Peder Hansen metro 6r4 could often reach above 200mph mechanic took therapy in between rallys as they often found4 blood,hair and fingers from spectators drivers got tunnel vision an audi A4 lost control and killed 6 spectators and the driver who broke his spine and the roll cages were aliminium light thats what I call amazing shame I never seen it

Same

Today is much easier for drivers with all thier electronic aids . And yes the b spec had electronic aids, but much much simpler in comparison.

Peder Hansen its not about the times, listen to those sounds, no co2 emissions. Look at the crowd on the racetrack. It is group B rally, something else than just cars and good drivers, its the mixture of legendary cars and the pure love of motorsport from every single guy out there

you can see it for free my dude, no need for tickets

Watching a rally is free

Hey current wrc faster because as it turns out more control makes sense in gravel than dumping brute Force

@@Marc-zi4vg nope look at the hp buddy Group B is 770hp and wrc today is 350

@@pitlanegreece based on the sources and forums I've looked up says that even 90s wrc cars are getting faster than group b cars and the main reason is that even though they have power, group b regulation says smol engine = smol tires and this contributed to why these group b cars are so hard to drive, mean while wrc and beyond the 90s saw the tire size to be same for everyone while providing greater grip than their beastly predecessor combined with maneagble amounts of power so in turn faster time in stages. Raw power doesn't mean faster if over all the driver can't control it well, in the narrow and slippery rally stages, group b cars are sledgehammers while what came after that are precision tools for comparison... . And oh yeah they bumped the power now to 385 recently so we're getting back there.

DaRealCarlos \ Bouncer: How tough are yah? Group B driver: I raced in Group B... Bouncer: R-right this way sir!

Best comme t

The group B rally driver was Henry Toivonen. The first guy was Chuck Norris. Second Guy was Jesus. Jesus is now taking racing lessons from Henry. Chuck is still learning to drive with the rest of them.

Wow, I didn’t know it was like this within group b,blame it on being from America,i certainly recall all the references regarding group b as i read car and driver all those years...i cant wait to dive into the history of these cars and drivers..mike sr.

Made me laugh, thank u! I needed this!

Thank you very much ..:)

Icemanrider1 your favourite group B car? my is Quattro or Delta S4

Yes, definitely Quattro and Lancia Delta S4 ...
