@@MassimoMSSR this is basically what made this soo interesting. 2 wd vs 4wd. I love lancia for what they did and dared to do , sadly they are no more...Lancia hands down my favourite automaker
I'm lucky, I lived that era to the full.. An era where electronics only served to turn on the headlights, where cars easily reached more than 800hp without assistance and were dirty, hard to drive, dangerous.. An era where safety it was just a suggestion and we were speeding at more than 200km per hour on narrow, dirt roads, with non-existent grip, in the middle of two rows of crowds in the center of the track... An era where the drivers, before getting into the car, calmly a shot of whiskey, a cigarette and a few passionate kisses to the girl on duty.. A time where death was seen as a traveling companion.. A time of great clashes between car manufacturers with blows of power, turbos and everything needed to make driving the car faster and faster.. The golden era of Group B was something magical, unreal, dangerous and wonderful.. And it will never come back... What a shame...
This cars never went above 500hp i think a few were above 400hp though the audi had 300hp, what makes this era interesting wasnt the safety or other stuff, it was the rally stages were longer, unpredictable and drivers get along with each other, nowdays rally cars are as fast as this ones
And NASCAR. Until '87, they just goed nuts in a performance way. Just, they could go as fast (in top speed) as a F1 car of the same time, with nearly half the power, and the double of weight. In a car. That you could buy.
@@HirokaAkita no NASCAR was for the mentally impaired What else explains how they got people to get into a 800 horsepower plastic tube with dozens of other maniacs around
Hirouka Akita formula one is about acceleration, anyone can drive fast in a straight line, it‘s when you throw corners into the mix does it become skill. And not just two big sweeping bends
Ahhhh I remember the rally acropolis 1980s when me and my brother where watching this cars pass near our bedroom window and Hear the sound of metres away getting closer and closer . Nice years
Traction control and other electronics make modern WRC faster, Group B was just sheer skills and courage and drama and politically incorrect mayhem. I miss it
Cael Jackson group b cars weren't all that fast if they weren't going straight ahead. the fans are the biggest reason why it was banned, they caused a massive amount of accidents. the biggest non crowd related incident to the banning of group b was henri torvinen and segio cresto in corsica. no crowd control was the main problem though
Actually i think 037 was the best because It beated the quattro ( considering that the quattro was 4x4 while the 037 was RWD) But also the lancia S4 was fucking great. Even Better thank the Audi
@@davideb.4290 Rear drive rocks and yes, the 037 while being older could still fight well on tarmac but it lagged behind on loose gravel. Quattro was good, then came the S4. So good it ended the sport lmfaoo 205 was good too when it first appeared. Considered it's older and smaller engine !

I think this video is the max expression of the group B era. This music, this car, this rally fans, this danger, this faces. The only things that can immerse you in another era.
Never to be repeated,never to be seen again. Lucky are those of us who were witness to those three short years (1983 -1986). They have great and incredible stories to tell.

3:00 to 3:20 was the most epic scene for me, especially when the camera starts to pan to the drivers. It really did a great job displaying their hardwork and grit to win the championship
Sometimes, when I'm driving fast on the street, I think to my self: "You need skills to go fast, but you also need balls" Those guys had more BALLS than skill and that's saying something cause they were really that good.

Golden era. Agree that it was dangerous for spectators and drivers but we all have to admit that there was much adrenaline then. RIP Toivonen and Cresto. You will always be in our hearts.
No hybrid cars, no electric cars, no mufflers, no soft limiter, no abs, no esp, no computers in cars, no cell phones, just pure sound of petrol engine with pure driving skills
Theres a reason the video is called "Group B - The Golden Era of Rally" It's cause Group B is called "the golden era of rally" and im pretty sure that group c isn't called "The golden era of LeMans"
@@2K-Tan Yeah i know, back when i wrote that i really didn't know much about Group C. But i'd still rather call it the golden era of sports car racing.
+Ian Fairbanks If that "Tech" is used... It wouldn't be Group B anymore. Group B is insane, and the drivers are heroes. And they are heroes because of the vehicles they drive are BEASTS. Putting Electronic Driver-Aids on top of them will make them as docile as the current WRC cars... It wouldn't ever be the same.
"Group B" + "we have the tech to control them now!" = WRC. Yes bring back group B but dont put tech on them put in the crazy people how goes to the middle of the road take selfie
Unfortunately, here in Brazil in the 80s, the only media we had access to was open TV and Rally racing was an underworld of sports that was almost never reported on. The only medium that could have any news would be specialized magazines found with great luck at a newsstand. The first videos I managed to watch at the end of the 80s were the VHS from a publisher that rented its films called HAVOC and its editions were limited to highlighting accidents. It's a shame that in a golden age of motor sports the only one broadcast on national television was Formula 1. The rest of the other categories such as Stock Car were simply marginalized by the broadcasters who only filled their programming with some background highlights.
The pure fact, these men drive faster than anyone has ever driven on gravel is a huge accomplishment. This fast on roads where you cant see ahead is at the same time extremely dangerous but rewarding too. Eyes and ears both do the work.
Todays rally is faster than this but for these cars the lack of any assist systems its just craxy how fast they were going for their time maybe not the fastest but its just craxyyyy
Never forget, Walter Rohrl while driving a fucking Opel, beat Hannu Mikkola, Michele Mouton and Stig Blomqvist all of whom drove Quattros to the title in 1982. The best driver of the 80s without question.
Modern WRC : Awesome machine with high tech, but with restrictions for fair racing and safety. Only the bravest and skilled are willing to drive in the series. Group B : Badassery at it's finest. Literal death machine on four wheels with almost no restrictions. Once the machine is fired up, all hells break loose. No TC, no stability control, just pure unfiltered power ready to be spun out from the pistons to the wheels. Only those who seek death for fun and those who had little to none sanity are willing to even step foot into the car.
@Joel Silva You're trying to tell us that someone was not the best driver in history just because he didn't drove a Group B car. Now _that_ is a very childish (and clueless) way to think about rallying.
@Joel Silva That's debatable, yet it's unnecesary here: Mr. McRae could've been a Group B driver, too, as did Latvala, Ogier, Loeb, Tänak, Neuville, and many other WRC and non-WRC drivers (but specially WRC drivers) that showed to be very capable (actually, to be absolute mad drivers) to drive old-school, full manual, very powerful RWD cars. So my original comment remains relevant. Read it again.

*lion_is_ balanced* Colin McRae was one of the best, imagine him in a Quattro S1 E2...that would be fuckin awesome
@@ofaoilleachain it would be crazy but peugeot wins
@Joel Silva You're trying to tell us that someone was not the best driver in history just because he didn't drove a Group B car. Now _that_ is a very childish (and clueless) way to think about rallying.
@Joel Silva That's debatable, yet it's unnecesary here: Mr. McRae could've been a Group B driver, too, as did Latvala, Ogier, Loeb, Tänak, Neuville, and many other WRC and non-WRC drivers (but specially WRC drivers) that showed to be very capable (actually, to be absolute mad drivers) to drive old-school, full manual, very powerful RWD cars. So my original comment remains relevant. Read it again.
still be one of my fav video in my life
The most beautiful CZcams video I have ever seen.
This is one of those amazing and few and far between videos that give you chills no matter how many times you watch it because of how good it is.
Let’s take a minute to think for those in some countries that can’t watch this anymore as it’s been sadly been blocked on copyright grounds
If Michèle isn't your crush, then you have no business liking Group B.
What a fucking woman.
Probably one of my favorite videos on youtube, I come back to this regularly.
00:52 that sequence of the driver is outstanding
group b was something different.
Had to download a vpn just to come back to this video. Truly a masterpiece.
1:43 I never get tired of watching that Lancia obliterate some random road sign
