  • This might just be the best day of my working life. The nut-job launch event for the Pirelli P7 Corsa Classic was pure, Italian, chaotic genius with Markku Alen and Juha Kankkunen. Watch and smile.

But then again they probably wouldn't be as easy to live with as the Mighty Quattro. It really is a pity they got abandoned for Abarth. Although the 037 also has a couple of scorpions on it.

    I have met my compatriot Juha Kankkunen a couple of years ago. When I approached him, I only thought of meeting one of my childhood heros and a 4 times World Champion. Almost all of that was "forgotten" immediately, because he was such a gentleman, polite, considerate, easy to approach and relaxed, a thoroughly nice person. The best and also a funny part was that it started to rain and as I was standing outside of a ground-level veranda and Juha was standing under a balcony about a meter away from me, he pulled me away from the rain to keep me from getting wet. A small gesture, yet a very nice and a genuine one,too. What a great ambassador for the sport and for Finland. He made one fan very happy that day. :D

      I had that thought too. This is a guy who's driven nearly everything there is to drive, and when Juha got on the throttle his initial response was "dear God!" Really makes you appreciate what a monster the S4 was.
      The other thing I noticed about the S4 section was from the bumper-level view just after 7:26. Just watch the motion of the scenery going by, and how fast it picks up when he punches the throttle. At first I actually thought the video had been sped up for a quick flythrough of the course, but if you listen to the engine during that burst of speed and through the next turn, the car's motion syncs up with it, and the engine's pitch sounds normal. So it really is (apparently) gathering speed that quickly. Just unreal.

    • @JimGriffin
      @JimGriffin 9 лет назад +5

      You are very right...good observation. I watched it again and at the 7:26 mark, it is noticeable how quickly it accelerates. Absolutely phenomenal! I am also so impressed at how they drive these cars so fast around such twisty, tight turns! So much talent...and experience! 👍 😎

    We had a Lancia Fulvia 1.3 in the 70s in our family, pity not a HF, it was too expensive for us, the maintenace and the insurance just out of reach. When I see a Lancia, no matter wich one, it beings back lovely memories, Lancias of the late 40s and early 50s were the cars that we Italians liked to have as workmanship was at its best, elegant and very reliable. Not to forget the F1 Lancia D50 that Ferrari used to win the world championship in 1957 with Juan Manuel Fangio. It is a great pity that such a make after winning 10 world rally championships, Fiat decided to just put and end to this historic lame. We Italians will always have Lancia in our heart. Lovely video, thans a lot Mr Chris Harris.

    The old driver's Walter Rohl,Markku Alen,Stig Blomkvist and Juha Kankkunen are living god's to me I totally understand how an ex ballet dancer became a world class rally driver this is pure poetry in motion every tiny element of balance exploited to the enth degree.
    The 037 I'm glad to see is actually as scary to ride in as it looked in a rally these car's are homologation's in their truest form for me they are pricless work's of art the the lightness coupled with their vicious power will enthral me for the rest of my life.
    The Audi's were the force de resistance I will always remember Michell Mouton the lone female driver of the time being right in the thick of it in her Audi sport swb.
    The death trap Lancia Stratos and the whine of the supercharged s4 Lancia will stay within my soul after I'm dead.
