    I competed in this in 1987 and managed to finish... in a Toyota AE86 Corolla

      @@VHSRallies I didn't even expect that could have been such a rally out there... This is just 11 years after the Cultural Revolution when they were destroying any old buildings they could find (at least those that weren't simply houses, but monasteries, palaces and things alike), closing tea shops, mass burning old literature, and even destroying lawns. Yes, LAWNS!!! They even considered that the red light on the street should mean to 'go', because meaning it 'stop' looks 'counter-revolutionary'. Not to mention how many good people were killed, just because they said no to this, or their neighbour accused them of being against the revolution or hiding old books.

    Do you have more videos from Middle East Rally Championship apart from the Lebanon Rally you already uploaded?

      Not at present. But it depends on which tapes collectors give me to convert.
