Rallycross Celebrates 50 Years 

Pretty sure that was the Ford Capri with a Furguson 4WD system driven by Stan Clark..

My Dad used to take me to watch Rallycross when it first started, that Lotus Europa that you can see when John Taylor starts to speak was later covered in Velvetex,basically gave the car a velvet ,furry kind of finish,which amazingly (not) didn't catch on,I think the driver was Paul somebody. I still remember John Taylor racing that Volvo,not the most outlandish racing car I've seen,I used to know someone who aurocrossed an Austin Westminster!! I remember seeing Graham Hill ,Roger Clark and Paddy Hopkirk. We used to watch the club events as well,even without the big names it was always entertaining.

@@dave8204 what do you think to today's offerings. Like wrc the cars are quick and hi tech but are completely void of any soul or character and are therefore, to me, boring

@@paulnutter1713 I agree entirely Paul, back then spectators could relate to the cars on the track and there were some very talented clubmen that could take on the big boys and at least give them a very good run for their money..I only really watch the Touring Cars these days,prefer the Bike racing now.

@@paulnutter1713 agree with that
