My favorite Era of World Rally. The shots of the 124 Fiat Abarth Rally Spider and the Fiat 131 Rally cars always put a smile on my face. I have a 124 Spider Rally car and drive it whenever I can...those cars from that time were the best, and set the stage for what it is today. Nothing sounds better than a Fiat Lampredi twin cam engine with a set of twin Weber 44 Idfs echoing through the countryside...Bravo video!

Breathtaking to see those drivers maintaining control.I'm driving in a game called "Dirt Rally" in virtual reality. You get avery good impression what it is to drive in such a rallycar. And knowing that this is only a racing game I can only imagine what it is to drive these rallycars in reallity....and knowing that there are spectators along the way!

Cant beat the feeling of playing Dirt Rally with the escort and the h pattern shifter with clutch and handbrake! I love the feeling you get from clutch kicks, heel-toe downshifting and drifting while keeping those revs high!! its so facking satisfying i could only imagin it in VR!!

hffp1 group a was also great, greater than group b in my opinion as they required for greater homologation numbers, giving rise to legends like the delta intergrale, Mitsubishi evolution, Subaru WRX STI, ford escort cosworth and the Celica. Road cars sold under this period of rallying really were watered down rally cars rather than today's rally "inspired" cars a.k.a jumped up road cars

Some great footage, but not all from the RAC Rally I think, if the logos above the competition numbers on some of the later footage is anything to go by. Also an excellent sound mix. It is not easy to record a rally car driving past a microphone as the volume increases dramatically as soon as the car passes the microphone. In that era most soundmen were using gun mic.s and the technique was usually to lift the mic. so that it did not point directly at the car as it passed whilst skilfully tweaking the gain to even things out. This sequence has also been beautifully mixed by a dubbing mixer to smooth out any imperfections in the original recordings. No wonder so many viewers have enjoyed it.

Yes, only first part is RAC Rally 1977 (and no Fiat's, Saab's or Opel's are shown). Second part is a mix of Sanremo, 1000 Lakes, Acropolis, Portugal of different editions (mid late '70s and early '80s). The Fiat 131 Abarth's for example are shown in 1977, 1978 and 1980 colors.

this is amazing a great "obrigado" from Portugal. And now just a smal question: do you have a time machine? otherwise how did you manage to bring a Lancia Stratus (minute 0,58) to race with a Vauxhall Celica and a Ford Escort Rs? But the result is pure ballet and that sound sinfonic music :)
