  • After 5 long years, I've been able to see again a rare Volvo 850 BTCC, specifically ex-official Rickard Rydell model and currently used in competitions. You can't imagine my immense pleasure and joy to put a large number of on-board cameras! I have immensely thanks to the owner and driver Simone Bellucci for the kindness and his group of friends and mechanics who welcomed me and my friend Davide458Italia with great enthusiasm! What about the car? Well, it's the Volvo 850 BTCC that in the hands of Rickard Rydell won 1998 British Touring Car Championship. In 1995 season Rydell made 13 pole position in 24 races! Strangely, the season of the 850 series began in collaboration with TWR in 1994 using the Estate version that behaved fairly well. Since 1995, TWR passed to employ a sedan version with good results until it reaches the BTCC title in 1998. The car is equipped with a 5-cylinder 2 litre engine that develops about 290hp mounted very low and back in the passenger compartment, almost in a central position. 6-speed sequential gearbox and wide use of carbon fibre everywhere. At that time the TWR took part at the F1 championship so you can see a reversal of technology in this Volvo race car. Spectacular the pneumatic lifting system. I want to thanks my friend and CZcamsr Davide458 Italia ( / davide458italia ) with whom I collaborated for the video. Enjoy also the exclusive onboard and outside Multicam!
    Dopo 5 lunghi anni ho potuto rivedere in azione uno dei rarissimi esemplari di Volvo 850 BTCC, nello specifico ex ufficiale Rickard Rydell ed attualmente impiegato nelle competizioni. Non potete immaginare che piacere e gioia immensa averla potuta filmare con un numero elevato di on-board camera. Ringrazio immensamente il proprietario e pilota Simone Bellucci per l'occasione concessami ed il suo gruppo di amici e meccanici che hanno accolto me e l'amico Davide458Italia con grande affetto. Per quanto riguarda la vettura si tratta appunto della Volvo 850 R BTCC che nelle mani di Rickard Rydell ha vinto nel 1998 il campionato inglese turismo e nella stagione 1995 partì dalla pole su 24 gare! Stranamente la stagione agonistica della serie 850 iniziò grazie alla collaborazione con la TWR nel 1994 utilizzando la variante station-wagon che si comportò discretamente bene. Dal 1995 si passò ad impiegare la versione berlina con buoni risultati fino al raggiungimento del titolo BTCC appunto nel 1998. L'auto è dotata del 5 cilindri di 2.000 CC aspirato portato ad oltre 290 CV, montato molto in basso ed arretrato nell'abitacolo, quasi in posizione centrale. Il cambio è sequenziale 6 marce e potete notare un ampio uso di fibra di carbonio ovunque. All'epoca la TWR correva in Formula 1 e si nota un riversamento di tecnologia in questa vettura. Spettacolare il sistema di sollevamento pneumatico. Ringrazio l'amico e CZcamsr Davide458 Italia ( / davide458italia ) con cui ho collaborato per la realizzazione del video, il suo aiuto è stato fondamentale! Godetevi l'esclusivo multicam on-board che ho voluto integrare con le visuali dal cofano motore e dallo scarico unendo gli audio di ogni ripresa per una totale coinvolgimento del suono. Buona visione!

      I’d say the first gen V70R is the more underrated one.
      850R and second generation V70 R are very much recognised (deservedly so, I must add), but the first gen V70R is seldom talked about.
      One could compare them to the R32-34 skylines where the middle child so to say is the least talked about one.

    They had to cut a wedge out of the cylinder head and put an offset spacer in to allow for the required angle of intake runners. Massive amount of work. But it did the trick.
    Volvo struggled to get more than 240hp at first..... then with the additional wedge, 320+

      Yeah and they didnt cut the wedge out at the combustion chamber face, they did it higher up ! Designing and casting a new head would have been easier and cheaper, but the rules said you had to keep the production head with the valves in the production location !

    That car needs a more flowing race track with long straights so the driver can really open the taps and let the car do what it was built for. Rickard Rydell became the 1998 BTCC champion with the Volvo S40 though, not the 850. He won races with it granted but not the championship. From what I can remember, the reason TWR switched to the saloon was because the rules had changed to allow front splitters and rear spoilers and the engineers at TWR figured the saloon would be the better choice to use in the campaign

      You're right, I talked about this last week with a guy who owns a Volvo 850 and he too, like us, grew up looking at these cars when he was a boy. The 90s and early 2000s were the best times for BTCC, many different cars, all beautiful and competitive, the races were hard-fought, and there were very strong drivers. Today's BTCC is very far from that era; I no longer follow it with the same interest.

    • @timoschneider7030
      @timoschneider7030 Před 3 lety +4

      @@Italiansupercarvideo I agree! I haven't followed it closely since the early 00s when the supertouring era came to an end. It had everything. Masses of factory teams, world class international drivers with characters, simple racing regs and relatively wide open technical regs. Yet it's success was its own demise. Grew too big and expensive for a production car based series and eventually the bubble burst. Pretty sure it will never be seen again, especially nowadays where the automotive and motorsport environments are very different to how they were then, restricted by environmental sustainability, excessive safety and not so much of a consumer market for performance cars. However, despite all of that, I did catch BTCC at Donington last weekend and I have to say the racing was superb and with a very healthy grid! I'm looking forward to the next round!

    • @bt4291
      @bt4291 Před rokem +1

      Really it’s not a ram air effect with this being a turbo motor. However it is allowing cooler air and more of it on demand which in turn IS more power. If this was a carbureted motor with an air ram then yes at higher speeds it would then force the air into the carb, however the gains from that are an illusion as it’s simply doing the same thing his air duct did, cooler air CLOSER to the valves to be used than hot engine air. That’s why compressed air super chargers haven’t become mainstream. The air is forced behind the butterfly valve and used NO outside air delivering crazy psi/cfm of air at zero or close to and the calibration to regulate motors and fueling from hot to shot is very difficult but the company’s doing it are coming up with 600-900 shots of reliable power ONCE all the bugs are worked out.

      @bt4291 Před rokem +3

      True that. I’ve never seen a performance Volvo non turbo but I read the requirements for the race bracket. You are 100% correct that turbos were a no no. Fun fact they used the wagon only because Volvo had no sedans and they didn’t wanna wait. So they used the wagon and found they could put more down force on it because of the roof apparently so this vehicle had amazing advantages in the turns and the dude who drove it came from go cart racing so it was a winning team. Thankyou for clarifying that for me.

      Hello Elianne, you're welcome 😉 I also love this car too, it was one of the most beautiful BTCC cars of the 90s and an unforgettable Volvo, both the track and road versions. The engine you have in your vehicle is the right one; it's not the normal GLE but not even the most powerful T5 R, which is now very rare. If you are interested, I have two more videos that I recommend. The same day I filmed this car, as you saw, I put as many cameras as possible. I haven't seen it again since that day and a few years have already passed. So I decided to upload a video that contains only the OnBoard experience, I know it's a video-only for fanatics, but maybe you like it: czcams.com/video/WmFyrwr66vo/video.html
      This instead is an old video of mine from 2013, the first time I filmed this car, on the Mugello circuit. The quality is not the best, but at that time, I still had a lot to learn about how to make videos. But I want to show you; you might like it: czcams.com/video/clRsCLFYwYE/video.html

      @@nazzgull2822 'What you say is true, and I am happy that you like my videos 👍 But personally, it's all very sad. Twenty-five years ago, each car had a distinct character; they were different from each other. When I was a boy, when I went to school, I could see the Volvo 850, the Audi A4, the Vectra, the Accords that ran on the street and the weekend on TV I watched the races of all these sedans that challenged each other. It was great because everyday cars, the cars of a family man, I saw them on the track on Sunday (ok, just the bodywork, because we know that the BTCC / WTCC are real racing cars). But for me it was enough, it was beautiful, there was a fan base between one brand and another. Today this is no longer even thinkable. Imagine if we were to see wacky races between cars on stilts or practically the same, perhaps with the same engine (I imagine the Audi-VW-seat mini SUV for example, all with the same engine, the same gearbox, the same suspension ... well, what a sadness. I'm happy to have raised my youth in the 80s-90s and early 2000s. The new generations don't know what they are missing. Furthermore, I suspect that the interests of this racing world are null. Young guys know everything about the last useless smartphones, and they probably don't even know how to drive or have a license and are satisfied with a little VW Up for their travels.
