      Why do dumbasses still assume everything modern has assists?
      It's only a few classes like GT3 that have them, and besides, making a better differential is way more important than some fucking TC in rallying.

    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...

    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 airborne support,the tecnical wizards working magic at the service halts,the dynamic team managers,the cars,the stages,the action,the drivers,livery on the cars,the power band on the cars ever going up,up and up.

    • @zwjna

      ​@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.

      Hi iam a 2000's Kid........and for some reason i wish i would have been born in the mid to late 60's, so i could have had expierienced the 70's, 80's, and 90's. i also miss so many things from the early to mid 2000's, and everytime i asked someone what it was like back then no one really could give me a clear picture of these amazing decades. I think a part of the reason why i want to find out more about these wonderfull decades is the golden era of JDM, from the late 80's to the early 2000's. Iam a huge JDM fan, to me it sounds odd wanting to own a japanese sportscar from the 90's and not knowing the history behind the car and the decade.
      *Please correct me* if i made any errors, iam sure i made ones. Also iam german and still learning english, and we all know how "good" germans can speak english...
      I expierience this A LOT in germany, for example asking for a translation from english to german, okay i admit mostly old people can't speak or understand english, but to me it's rediculous that in the 21'st century there are still countries that don't speak english as a second language.
