Makes up for the demise of group b. Our consolation prize.

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.

You're an absolute Saint for uploading these - the perfect distraction at the moment. Thank you

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 😊

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

“Who’s driving style is nothing short of absolutely sensational” bless him old Murray.

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.

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 😂

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

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!!

That E30 is one hell of a machine. I just read details about it, absolutely insane. Love these old vids! 👍

that 700hp awd e30 m3 was spectacular to watch, brutal power being transformed into molten rubber, smoke and flames. so entertaining

Rallycross was a different thing back in the days xD

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!

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.

Love this epoc thanks for sharing, the gold years of motorsport

2 minutes in and I have the biggest smile on my face 😁

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.

Great entertainment. Gollop v Schenche battles were just the best! Thank you for uploading!

Old school rally cross was the best. Just pure and aggresive racing without gimmics and joke lap.

Every time I see tiff racing he drives like this, his aggressive driving style is deffo suited to rallycross and BTCC.

Took me straight back to the Saturday afternoon’s of my yoof. Great stuff

Tiff has skills!

I used to go to all these meets at Brands, thanks for the memories !

Bloody brilliant! Thank you for uploading. 👍👍👍

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.

Good old Tiff...only man who could overtake cleanly! You can hear Schanche had a miss fire in the A Final...

The golden age of everything

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

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.

I had the pleasure of driving one quite regularly in the early 90's. Another great Ford to drive.

what a masterpiece of cars and driving!

"Lahteenmaki having been well and truely blown off by Tiff Needell comes in 3rd place!" 🤣🤣🤣 - Surely this has to be up there with the Murry Walker classics? 21:50

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!!!!

That was absolutely enthralling all the way through. Thank you for this rallycross gem!
