Insane onboard footages of Impreza WRC in action. WRC championship must be one of the toughest racing championships.

Leszek Kuzaj (Maybe you remember his insane bypass at high speed on)

Winter is coming soon, can't get better for Subaru Impreza or Mitsubishi EVO owners. Lucky bastards, if there's mud or snow, Impreza WRX can handle it all. 


All wheel drive power.

Insane Impreza WRC

Subaru Impreza WRC passing by. Total madness! Sideways at about 200 Kph and spectators are standing so close to the road, that’s crazy! And they say WRC championship nowadays doesn’t have any of the Group B spirit… :)

WRC EVO IX jump

Posted by kopok Tuesday, April 20, 2010 0 comments

Mitsubishi EVO IX flying through air. Spectacular jump by Aleksandr Saluk from Ukraine happened this weekend on WRC Rallly Turkey. Amazing how well WRC monsters are built, imagine this action with any stock car, they would definitely crash into pieces. But amazingly WRC EVO survives and carries it on with only 3 wheels left. Mitsubishi Lancer EVO 3WD, something you haven’t seen yet.

Don’t try this at home like these people flying with Subaru.

RX-7 racing in Group B

Posted by kopok Monday, April 12, 2010 0 comments

There are million reasons why Group B still raises dust and still is great to see in videos nowadays, although it was cancelled 14 year ago.

Group B started in 1982 with very few limitations. High tech materials were permitted, cars were as light as possible and there was no restriction on turbo boost pressure, so cars turned to have astronomical power output. It was also most dangerous competition in the history of rally championships. Spectators were watching races as near as possible to the road, very often they were standing in the middle of the road and moved away from the racing car last moment. Due to many deaths among drivers and spectators, Group B was cancelled after 4 years of existence and 1000hp rally cars became history and drivers became true heroes.

Video of Mazda RX-7 in action, crazy RWD monster, great respect to who ever could control this beast. If you think anything about electronic devices to help controlling the car… You can forget about it, those were low 90s:)
