Great video! The WRC should take note of this as is shows you don't need to go 180 mph with gigantic wings to have a great rally. Luckily we have the ERC which appears to be a modern version of this rally. And the ERC cars like these cars actually look like something you could buy. Also the sound of these cars are just fantastic , note the wheelspin coming off the corners and you can see them trail braking into the corners! Stay safe out there!! From Indiana, USA.
Dear friends, I used to be a rally fan since the middle of the eighties, and i still love this sport from the bottom of my heart. There have been some changes over time, and not all of them I'm sure make sense. Not just in terms of the impact on the feeling for the sport. But when I see these video recordings here, I have high hopes again that people will become more aware of what good rally sport should look like. It is not only because of the cars which are used there. Although I am a great enthusiast of the old Escorts, the Lancia Stratos and especially of the Saab 96. The most important thing for me is the character of the tracks used for the special stages (much gravel with a great variety of curves, and often downhill), as well as the lengh of the rally. Today, no rally in the World Championship has more than 500 kilometers of special stages. The Roger Abert Clark Rally shows that such a dimension is also possible in the present. I am of the opinion that if rallying is to gain more fans and supporters, the well-known rally classics in particular have to be longer. And not shorter. And the regulations must be opened up to more different vehicles and more technical innovation. At the moment, many areas of professional motorsport have degenerated into a stage for self-promotion, where the actual events on the track are merely secondary. That's not really progress, I think.
@@andreaslugauer8280 The new 2025 rules allows rallies to be longer and remote services are making a comeback after 20+ years. This is really good news, no more long road sections or small area rallies with 6 stages that are driven twice!
Gosh, very nostalgic, great video, used to go to Clipstone Forest in Notts. to watch the Lombard Rally as it was then, and it was this sound. A Stratos in a forest at night is a crazy thing, but I love the Escorts best.
I didn't know about this event. 🤦♂ I'm definitely going down in 2024, thanks for the heads up + great video and especially the lovely Strato's (Strato's it's genuinely spelled with an apostrophe, check out the badge) 🥰
I hope I'm not being blasphamous but that Stratos, more than any other Stratos I've seen or heard, seems to rev a lot higher and sounds as if it's got a V6 Hiabusa under the "bonnett". 😂
Great video with a nice array of cars. I always cringe a bit when you think of the hammering the underneath of these cars take with all the slate and shale!
Nice to see all of these old German Fords, German Opels, German Porsches, Italian Lancias Stratos (replica?) and Japanese Subaru flying by just as that one British Triumph TR8 with American Buick V8.
2:46 - Very lucky the car hadn't slid wide just a tiny bit sooner. That could've done a dramatic amount of damage, and instead it was just a little scrape.
A test of man and machine against the elements. A test of endurance, concentration and listening. A test of research and understanding of the driver for the co-driver. Rally is fascinating.
Hmm, egal wie sie den Rallisport versoften er bleibt wie die Formel1 ein einziges Gähnen. Formel1 bietet zig tausend gefühlte Runden bis was passiert, beim Rally ist es egal passiert. Wohl bekomms.
The stratos is legendary.
The short wheel-base looked like a real handful, until FIAT wanted the 131 to win. 😱

That lancia stratos sounds incredible 🔥
i would be happy to see even the step below this. the close the car is to something i can afford, the more i was to watch it.

A working lancia stratoss wow. This is proper rallying. Thanks for uploading 👍
Thanks for the view and taking the time to comment!
Sights & sounds I didn't think I would see & hear again. Bring on 2025. The way rallying used to & should be, Great event.
Rallying “should be” using cars from 30-40 years ago ?
@@ryanstallard1160 yes it's nice to see the old cars but that's not what was ment by the comment. More of a "way " to go about rallying.
Group B
The Stratos is just a sound killer :D But love the Escorts too :) Great video!
nsu
Jesus, that Stratos is angry! Glorious sights and sounds, love it.
FINALLY a rally game with good graphics.
Does it have VR support though?
hahah@@Joshtheshua
The banshee wail of that Stratos replica is epic ❤
She's no replica! It's the real deal, one of only 2 left rallying in the world!
That's an Alpha Romeo V6. The Dino has quite a dull sound in comparison.
@@MrKips1its not a replica Stratos. Its a real one, only that it was fitted with a 6 to 1 exhaust which changed the engine note.
2:50 what a save!
That’s absolutely mega. Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video as always was a brilliant event loved the sideways action great location choices too
Thanks Vinnie mate.
Fantastic footage 👌👌keep up the good work 👍
Thanks, will do!
Well done guys, excellent work, thankyou!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic video guys,,the sound quality is absolutely superb,,thanks 👍🏻👍🏻

Awesome 👍!
Thanks! 👍
This video is brilliant best rallying video of 2023, well done 👍
Pero que nivelazo neeeennnn
Epic!
👍😀Nice video🇳🇴
That Stratos gives me a dribbley tip.
😂😂
…もはや＂芸術＂の域ではないだろうか⁉️
彼らは「アーティスト」だと思う‼️
Yooo the Stratos!
Glad to see that some pilots can still handle RWDs !! Some fine pilots here!
Good video 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Stratos was sending it! Mad bugger.
I didn't know about this event. 🤦♂ I'm definitely going down in 2024, thanks for the heads up + great video and especially the lovely Strato's (Strato's it's genuinely spelled with an apostrophe, check out the badge) 🥰
This event runs every 2 years, so don't turn up this year 😂
@@britishrallymedia Haha, nice one. I'd have looked a right plonker stood next to an empty road with my flask of soup.
I hope I'm not being blasphamous but that Stratos, more than any other Stratos I've seen or heard, seems to rev a lot higher and sounds as if it's got a V6 Hiabusa under the "bonnett". 😂
It has a V6 Lancia/Ferrari 24v engine, closely related to the V6 Dino engine and fully homologated for historic rallying 👍🏼
It was fitted with a 6 to 1 exhaust, instead of the original exhaust.
Great video with a nice array of cars.
I always cringe a bit when you think of the hammering the underneath of these cars take with all the slate and shale!
Try being inside. It buggered up my hearing for days and I only went gently on 1 stage of a little hick fun drive!
Nice to see all of these old German Fords, German Opels, German Porsches, Italian Lancias Stratos (replica?) and Japanese Subaru flying by just as that one British Triumph TR8 with American Buick V8.
The Stratos is still porn on wheels, love it!
Muitoooooo legal👏👏👍👍🚙🚙😄😄🇧🇷🇧🇷
Lancia Stratus o mais icônico carro de rally de todos os tempos
They can have F1. To me, this is racing.
2:46 - Very lucky the car hadn't slid wide just a tiny bit sooner. That could've done a dramatic amount of damage, and instead it was just a little scrape.
Very lucky indeed. The stage was covered in ice! Slippy as hell.
Riley drivers will be driving like to spawn points
awso😁

Screw the modern WRC. Retro Rally is the best motorsport.

What's the point?

Literally every single one of them over driving.. over revving, all amateurs presumably...good pics and video!
Hmm,

Wohl bekomms.
👎 boring
F1 is boring.
Love the TR7 !
