@dagnut, mad, mad clip. seen it berofe, dear god look at the understeer at 2.20 and 2.230 after the puncture

imo most of the top boys today could not do that
 
here ya go,

youtube GREAT SCOTS - JIMMY MCRAE and it will be clear that colin didnt pick up his charisma or talent off the ground :?
 
Legendary clip. :headbanger: Foot to the floor. Unreal stuff, totally different from todays rallying.

What about the U-TUBE video clip at 1 minute, 40 seconds where he comes out of a bend slightly side ways and just gets it straight again to go over a bridge with big concrete walls either side. Amazing.

I have a Manta Magic dvd and it has that coverage and other Manta bits on it. It also has the 1985 Circuit of Ireland rally coverage with the likes of Stig Blomquist, Henri Toivannen, Ari Vatanen, Jimmy McCrae, Russel Brookes, Bertie Fisher, Austin McHale, Billy Coleman and Michèle Mouton drivin an amazing Audi Quatro.

Just wish I wasnt still a toddler back then.

Great dvd if you can get your hands on it. :D
 
Havnt gotten around to takin any photos yet but I found this old one on the net :computer:. Mad to get going at it now.
