Title: Re: fiat 131 abarth v's escort bda rally 70's 80's Post by: Robert on November 07, 2012, 08:00:15 AM The story's already told in the subtitles, but in translation it loses much of its coolness. Basically, Walter says that this special stage was well known for foggyness, so he did five training runs, clocking 44 minutes on the track. The evening before the start he went to bed, took his stopwatch, drove the stage in his head and clocked 43:30 minutes. Next day he was really motivated and told his codriver that he'd better strap his seatbelt tight, for now they will go out and really beat up their opponents (unfortunately, the words he uses cannot be translated - they are not rude or obscene, just very much Bavarian dialect).

The grey/orange one was once offered to me for 140.000 Euro's. The Oliofiat doesn't sound like a genuine group 4 car. Not sure if it's got the 16V engine.
I love shots of the Porshes. They're so hard to handle. Never much of rallycars. Better for racing circuits. |
