Loved the bit where he's driving straight into the sun with no visibilty, with only one hand on the wheel, the other hand shielding his eyes from the sun, & he's still not backing out of the gas, totally awesome. :)

LOL yeah that things like that and the utter pounding he gives that Peugeot the whole way up the hill (even on the edge of cliff faces) really sums up just how nuts group B rally was, i wish they had never stopped the group B events it was just completely insane.
and what a serve that bug copped on the bumper cam rofl
Slightly off topic but just last month Jeff Denmeade took his EVO over to Pikes Peak for a run at the time trial. Nothing majorly changed from standard. Dave Hinde (Merlin on this forum) went with him to help set the tune each day at Jeff's request.
End result = They won their class (AWD). Well done to Jeff and his team of Aussies. :beer
Jeff was quoted as saying - 'its the only time ever in the car where I've had to forget speed and concentrate on being accurate.'

Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.
