That Tiffany Dell is a mean driver! She’s got a deep voice though......
I think you meant Tiff Needell...:)
😄😄😄😄😄
I nearly wet myself laughing at Tiffany. Good show, sir. And good show on the track.
🤣🤣🤣
Dan-Cristian Dima nah he was right the first time still
“Who’s driving style is nothing short of absolutely sensational” bless him old Murray.
Pleasantly surprised at the combination of Murray Walker and Tiff Needell, never knew Tiff did rallycross and i never knew that Murray Walker seemingly had a clone army of himself to voice every single motorsport event ever held.
Rallycross was a different thing back in the days xD
You're an absolute Saint for uploading these - the perfect distraction at the moment.
Thank you
‘Look at That!, My Goodness !!’ God bless our Murray 😂😎👌🏻
"Jarmo Lahteenmaki having been well and truly blown off by Tiff Needell"

keep it coming, nothing better than 80's rallycross
Makes up for the demise of group b. Our consolation prize.
You can't go wrong with a bit of old school rallycross
Rip Sir Murray Walker
Oh, please.! Stop reminding us that he's dead.. ! 😳
Instant chills as soon as Murray began talking. There will never be another like him.
Great post! I was actually there as a 12 year old at the bottom of paddock hill, spectating with my dad and mate! Rallycross and the truck racing were the best events at Brands in the 80s! Thanks
I used to go to the truck racing at Brands back in the 80's, the crowds were huge.
That's epic!! Love hearing that type of thing. Followed rallys around ireland in late 70s onwards with my uncle. Circuit, Cork 20, Killarney rally of the lakes, Donegal international, sligo stages.....pretty much all of them. Loads of British and European rallycross in mondello park too. Great memories!!
Absolute dream grids in these races, incredible stuff. Sierra Cosworths, Audi Quattro, Metro 6R4, Peugeot 205, amazing wee Renault 5 Turbo, BMW E30, Ford RS200, Lancia Delta! This will never be surpassed
proper back in day this,rallycross group B rally cars and Murray walker,im 16 again watching this on a wet rainy saturday afternoon,brilliant
35:37 I love the 80's safety regulations! 😂
Standing behind a temporary fence looks safe enough right, and the ambulance is right there so it's fine 😂😂😂
When rallycross was so popular it attracted ex F1 drivers, and TV celebs. Add some brutal ex group b rally cars and you can't go wrong.
Always great to see Tiffany Dell racing too 😂
this is way way more entertaining than 2020 F1 :)
Yawn
Motorsports today aren’t even close to this for pure entertainment 👌🏼
Great entertainment. Gollop v Schenche battles were just the best! Thank you for uploading!
What a trip down memory lane. Thanks you !!
You're welcome!
oh how i loved rallycross. glad to be watching it now and its still brilliant!
The beautiful days before 'health & safety'.
And we even survived these days no problem!
Such a breath of fresh air! Not that I’m against it as I’m sure none of us are but all of these regulations hinder the true soul of the sport. So sad.
Back then when racing was racing between men and not their sons, regulated by their worried fathers ; )
So grateful that at the age of 32 I may still discover things like this, rallycross in the 80s!! And that voice of Tiffany Dell, took a min for that landed 😂 so happy right now 😊
And thank you so much for putting in the effort to digitize the videos. 👍🏻
That E30 is one hell of a machine. I just read details about it, absolutely insane. Love these old vids! 👍
Fantastic ! , I was there and so good to see again ..... it will never be as good as that !
"Tiff's going to say something to us," from a ditch.
"Good-oh!"
Every time I see tiff racing he drives like this, his aggressive driving style is deffo suited to rallycross and BTCC.
Love this epoc
thanks for sharing, the gold years of motorsport
Just adding my 2 pence worth here. Please look at all the other content on this excellent channel.
The Renault 5 of Roger Newbould had a 2 litre Ford BDA normally aspirated engine in it. British regulations were such that if your car was 4WD or turbo charged you would have to go into the supercar category (Formula A as it was known, Newbould was in Formula B)
John Welch's car was Opel's mothballed Group B rally project. XTRAC had already built the transmission for it so it was almost rallycross ready.
The yellow and blue escort of John Smith was Martin Schanche's car that won the event in 1984. The yellow escort of Kjetil Bolneset was John Welch's and won the 1985 event. Jonathan Palmer had driven it the year before.
Jonathan Palmer's RS200 was owned by Martin Schanche and that was a rent a drive car
The 6R4 Tiff Nedell drove was Will Gollop's original 6R4.
I was watching the grand prix in the back of the pits at Hoppy's Drop and Schanche's RS200 sounded very sick and was misfiring when he put his foot down. Made Gollop's afternoon easier. He told me afterwards it was a broken exhaust manifold.
nice to get an update on the cars and the race.
just got to love that peppy little renault 5.
RIP Murray Walker he did so much more than F1. I used to love watching these Real Rallycross cars
Even the dullest race could become edge of seat stuff thanks to Murray!
Gollops Silkolene 6R4 is so iconic. Preferred the biturbo version but still this is a piece of art. Not to mention the sound of that screaming V6
he rode the tyres of that car to win.
Murray Walker R.I.P May you give them full commentary up there! A legend now gone, you will live on in peoples hearts and memories.
Thankyou for this Upload, Thanks for ALL your Uploads, takes me back some!
Ben Edwards does a great job with C4 F1, but whenever you hear Murray's commentary you remember just how AB-SO-LUTE-LY FAN-TAS-TIC it was!
LOOK AT THAT, LOOK!! AT THAT!!
I miss Murray’s voice. 😢
Took me straight back to the Saturday afternoon’s of my yoof. Great stuff
Tiff is such a legend. Was a pleasant surprise seeing him in this race in that weapon of a car
As Murray Walker would say Fantastic upload! Anders Norstedt putting the tumbledown into Tumbledown Hill.
Faaaantastic!
I met Murray once. Had a short chat over a drink. Wonderful man. Totally genuine, humble and hard working. Utterly enthusiastic about Motorsport!!
My work has led me to meet a few dozen famous folk. I think Murray was the 'nicest' of them all, IMHO. Not that I'm Judge, just my personal impression.
Thank you so much for uploading this video, I loved 80s wrc and Irish tarmac championship and rally cross, can't believe tiff needle in a 6r4 beat a lancia s4. The cars where amazing
Absolutely amazing! How I miss all the front runner ‘car wars’ vids too
So much better than the modern pap.
Best content i've watched in months.
That was absolutely enthralling all the way through. Thank you for this rallycross gem!
Mate as I’ve said before your a top bloke for uploading all this classic rally footage mate! Wish i could go back to these times!!
I used to go to all these meets at Brands, thanks for the memories !
26:35 love the guy falling over then others falling over him!
I was standing at Druids watching these races, great memories.
I was at that meeting, was only 8. I still live not too far from Brands Hatch, it's a real shame they stopped rallycross at Brands back 2004, I never understood why. In recent years it's got a lot more popular, with WRX, but I still prefer the old days like this though.
Steven Northwood real jealous. Brands hatch is amazing!
That Renault 5
love R5s
that looked so smooth and fast, perfect balance on horsepower and handling.
Rally was a whole different thing the cars were monsters and the drivers were hero's fighting for their life♥️♥️
Thanks for the upload, classic racing.
Man I wish RX ran at Brands Hatch still. Project Cars 2 made me fall in love with this track
Good to see Roger Newbould hammering the posh stuff with the Renault 5. Those were the days !
That Renault had a massive Cosworth lump in it and was pretty much a Special Saloon racer, it was awesome!
Bloody brilliant! Thank you for uploading. 👍👍👍
My God, 700 HP E30!
And AWD. My spirit car.
Damn bro, you're knocking out some superb uploads, just right for the current situation :)
Murray Walker + British Rallycross. Doesn’t get much better than that
Group B Rallycross with Murray on the call. Fantastic
Absolute gem. Nice one mate!
Thanks for finding and uploading these!
It must have been very distracting for Tiff to be in constant contact with Murray. "Well, Tiff, you've landed on your arse, what do you think of that?"
The 1980s in action, absolutely superb.
2 minutes in and I have the biggest smile on my face 😁
Rallycross was so much better in this Days just some Monster Cars and Drivers Fighting against them today the Cars are much faster and better to drive not easy but not the same
Thanks for the wonderful memories.
Those were the days ay: 👍🐺👍
Amazing upload again. Thanks for sharing your absolutely stunning archive.
Oh, it's not my archive. All of the recordings are supplied by collectors who just want them converted and where possible, shared. So they deserve all of our thanks.
@@VHSRallies I would be mindful of uploading rallycross VHS, numerous people have uploaded rallycross stuff on here in the past and had their channels closed down usually by the same disgruntled ex employee or miserable son of a bitch I call him of a company that doesn't exist anymore.
@@VHSRallies I'd forgotten I had this on the tapes I gave you! Here's to finding a few more things I'd forgotten about.
@@carcontrolcommitment good seeing you here pal, have seen your handle on loads of motorsports related vids.
Quite good onboard audio and video for 1988, interviewing the driver 15 seconds after he's off the course.
Tiff has skills!
that 700hp awd e30 m3 was spectacular to watch, brutal power being transformed into molten rubber, smoke and flames. so entertaining
You can really see how the low center of gravity on the Rs200 works to its advantage. Not to mention the power!
I've actually seen two of these unicorns on the road in the past (RS200). I'd hate to think what they're worth these days when you see them getting smashed up! 😢
A Mk2 escort is a ridiculous amount of money these days. I had the pleasure of driving one quite regularly in the early 90's. Another great Ford to drive.
For me the best era for rallycross. Drivers,cars and brands track 👍
I know this sounds unlikely, but I'd like to see WRX historic class instead of Projekt-e..
There's a retro series in the UK. They do a big meetup at Lydden each year
I was there .... absolutely epic day
Awesome!! Great Racing!!
Brands Hatch is an amazing circuit!
80's Rally and Murray Walker Gold!
Finally some good content
Schanche, and absolute beast of a driver. And as mad as a box of frogs. Pure legend!!!
Anyone know what happened to his car? He was walking it and then slowed way down.
Rumour at the time was some sort of cracked exhaust, which cost him boost and thus power.
@@VHSRallies Ah, that makes some sense. Thanks for the info, and the great vid!!
I enjoyed that thanks👍
Thanks for posting man. If you're ripping VHS to Interlaced video look into deinterlacing to double the framerate :)
Top vid top era cheers pal...
Was lucky enough to go to all the Rallycross GP’s as a youngster. My uncle competed in the first few
As did I, also went to most events. Who is your uncle? I might remember him
Great events hey, over two days. Rob Taylor and team mate Bill Riddle. Both in green mk2 Escorts.
what a masterpiece of cars and driving!
Excellent, what a Track layout- won't see that again! :(
Indeed. The grass at Tumbedown Hill is too pristine to allow it.
GROUP B RALLYCROSS! I have so far subscribed and liked most of the videos. What shall I do even more to keep rallycross coming out?
This is what rallycross looks like 🤘
Brilliant!!
Fantastic!!!
And on Grandstand this afternoon we bring you Athletics from the Triple A's at Hounslow, racing from Haydock, Figure Skating from the World Championships in Helsinki, Cricket from Edgebaston, Golf from The Open at Royal St.Georges and Rugby League live from Aberavon.
But first Murray Walker and Rallycross.
Spot on 👌🏻😎
That final last lap got more emotions than a fully F1 Gran Prix... I'm kidding ahahah but really they were brave to drive to the limit a car with a rear flat tyre that deploy 400 hp (to the rear) on mud!!!!
love his victory ride at the very end
Yup. Tire's flat, yet he manages to keep it together just long enough.
Old school rally cross was the best. Just pure and aggresive racing without gimmics and joke lap.
This is amazing stuff, an absolute classic.
Although I cannot wrap my head around why you would red flag a race because one person jumped the start a tiny bit, just give them a penalty!
people talk about nostalgia...this is nostalgia! Ahh you could do anything in the 70s n 80s 😆
Great post.
Wow that BMW at 15:25 is a rocket! Smoking the tires off every turn!
i think i can watch for hours on video like this
Brilliant racing. Thanks for posting. I wonder where that M3 is now, what a car.
I believe it may have been reshelled into a more modern BMW by another driver after Martinsen retired from the sport. No idea where the oily bits are now.
Perfect 👍👍👍
That R5 sure knows how to start!!!!
LOOK AT THAT, LOOK!! AT THAT!!
Good ole' Needles! Even gooder ole' Murray! - FAN-TAS-TIC!
Good old Tiff...only man who could overtake cleanly!
You can hear Schanche had a miss fire in the A Final...
♥️😀🇬🇧 perfect. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
