  • @perkeleman1265
    @perkeleman1265 2 года назад +11

    I'm a 26 year old guy, so I didn't have the chance to witness this time, but when I was 17, they started off a nearby rally in a city I live close to, and I got to see an S1 and two S2 there. I wasn't absolutely crazy into cars and haven't seen a rally before that day.
    There was one turn where there was just a concrete barrier and a fence next to a turn going away from it, so they allowed viewers to stand there, and I got the chance to feel these things from roughly 1,5m distance. They started pretty late that day, so I had all kinds of awesome sounding cars from all kind of groups going past before, theres was one older 911 which I thought was incredibly loud until that point.
    Then the Quattros came. I remember clear as day when the announcer said "next up are two absolute beasts" and then I already heard this monstrous roar from the other end of that parking lot where they started. Usually you could hear the starting cars a little bit, but the quattros made the fences shake we held onto from that distance already.
    I didn't know the car by then and was really eager what's going to come around that corner in a few moments...
    It was this track where two cars would drive at the same time on different lanes, then change lanes after one lap and go around again. The drivers were pretty even so suddenly there's a black S2 and the yellow HB livery S1 ABSOLUTELY ROARING sideways through the turn, kicking up dirt behind them and then lighting the cloud of dust with the afterfire from the exhaust as they shifted to accelerate out of that turn. It felt like all my bones in my body got shaken up by these monsters. It took me a good minute to snap out of the awe again these things caused me to go into.
    I'm still young, but few moments in my life so far stuck to my memory this vividly, and I think it's an experience I won't forget for the rest of my live.
    And to agree with the words of Xc31, seeing and hearing these things on video and remembering that experience, really does bring me close to tears, it's just such an awe inducing machine.

    • @clydeyello
      @clydeyello 10 лет назад +3

      Nope. You may be mixing up your Deltas: the the one that was the most successful rally car in history was the Integrale, which was a far more tame Group A car. The Delta S4 didn't win much (mostly because Lancia didn't have the time to properly develop it... Same goes for the Ford RS200).

    Ein sehr guter Zusammenschnitt! Beim Ansehen vermischen sich Faszination mit Angst. Damals als 16 jähriger nahm man das einfach so hin, aber heute weiß ich, dass die Piloten eigentlich immer mit einem Fuß im Grab standen. Die Gruppe B, so harmlos die Bezeichnung mit dem 2. Buchstaben im Alphabet, so leistungsverrückt und eigentlich irre waren die damaligen Ingenieure und Fahrer. Das Ende der wilden Hatz war vorbestimmt und nicht ruhig und geordnet, sondern durch schlimme Ereignisse bestimmt. Wie jenes der Concorde. Heute im Nachhinein betrachtet, war es einzigartig. Zeitgleich fand ja auch in der Formel 1 der Leistungswahn statt. Es war also eine Entwicklung die scheinbar sein musste. Und es gab die richtigen Piloten dazu. Schauderhaft faszinierend! Danke für die schönen Bilder!

    I really liked the sound of the Lancia at the starting line at 25:20 Can hear the growl of the supercharger, then the whine of the turbocharger when he revs it up.
    And nothing EVER sounded better than the Audi 5 in all of rallying.
    The Metro 6R4 sounded interesting, but too nasal.
