Wish they had shown more of the Mk1 Escort...and i can't believe they put it up against the Focus RS around the track...

[Vimeous]

Regardless of how fast the RS went the Escort was the one that had my eyes glued to the screen. I just loved the lurid slides!
The disappointment of both Escort and our beloved Audi S1 loosing is tempered by the desire to see both on proper tarmac settings OR see the RS and Evo on gravel with the tyres they were using on road!

And didn't the GT40 look the mutts?!

This week both my gf AND her 14yrs old niece enjoyed the show ..... what is the world coming too?!

And didn't the GT40 look the mutts?!

Looked the nuts, gutted that they drowned out the sound of it with that of the Noble though...as much as i like the Noble, gimme the noise of that big V8 any day!. And as for the slides in the 'scort , was it not Roger Clark himself who said as long as he wasn't looking where he was going out of the back window it would all be alright....

Just found out it was not the Stig driving the quattro... That was the bit had me glued to the program!!! Wish he had though - bet he knows the track rather well As a note they put a rally car vs a road car in both the two examples of the older car loosing, would really have liked to o seen those races on gravel or something like that.

Surelly the evo is a rally car? Originally anyway.

[Nox]

The evo is a 4wd car, aye, and it does rally. The car they had would of been a road (tarmac) driving version, set up for roads etc, very sensibly as thats what is drives on. A better comparison may well have been the evo vs the sport quattro, which they did a while back on 5th gear? very close that! I wonder what the times were for their board....
