Tobacco liveries and sucking down a last cig at the starting line. Truly a time gone by.

[@cool3865]

honestly if anything they helped support the racing sport by spending so much money on cars and events.

The WRC owes a visit to the Middle East. A return to Jordan would be nice

The rear axle was always the Manta's achilles heel!

Best one.

[@donaljamescaddye3805]

Great upload - Loved seeing the old proper cars and proper drivers - Saeed Al Hajari came to the Circuit of Ireland and gave the locals quite a run for it ! Would i be right in saying the Porsches were run by Dave Richards Prodrive ? The fella in the RA63 Celica had a great run ! Shows that Russian communism was starting to unravel and the lads were able to compete in Jordan!

[@VHSRallies]

Yes, the 911 SC RS was pretty much the first project for Prodrive - helped by Rothmans backing.
