marv the master of finding unseen rare footage

I was born in 1997. I hadn't even heard of group B until Top Gear covered the life of Lancia years ago. Even then, I thought nothing of it. I played racing video games as I grew up, starting with Forza and then broadening to other games. then, I started watching gameplay of DiRT Rally 2.0, specifically of the Audi Quattro S1. I was fascinated by it: The noise, the speed. So, I decided to find it in other games I played, mainly Forza Horizon 4. I fell in love. It was incredible. Bombing around dirt tracks at insane speeds, winning race after race, all from the comfort of my own home. I was hooked. I tried every car, the O37, the 205 T16, the 6R4. And after testing them all, I found my place behind the wheel of the Lancia Delta S4. I loved every second of it. I drove it everywhere I could. I was infatuated by the thing. Yet, I wanted to know more. It only felt right. I looked up the car's specs to make it all true to life as possible. I learned about the car's history, about the mysterious Group S cars, about every car and driver that raced, the roads they raced on. About Toivonen, about Mouton, about Rohrl. Before, I only knew about how dangerous it all was, like a child being taught about the "scary" next-door neighbour. Only to find out he was harmless later in life. But now that I've absorbed it into my life... Group B is possibly my favourite motorsport *ever*. Just the sight, the sound, the spectacle... all of it gives me such nostalgic joy. I was never alive when Group B lit up the racing world. I was never there to see Toivonen die. I was never there in '83, when Lancia defeated Audi, in a last defiant hurrah for RWD rallying. And I was never there as Michelle Mouton broke the mould and became the world's first successful female racing driver. but, I can still feel the drama, the excitement, the fear, the sadness and the joy that those lucky few in the 80's would have experienced as they stood by the track and watched these heroes of steel and rubber go by in an orchestra of engine roars and turbo squeals. Group B still gives me chills. Group B makes me so incredibly excited. *Group B is like watching a dream I never had, but deep down wanted to be there so, so badly.*

Thanks for all the love on this video guys (and girls) !!! I did not think it would be this popular. It just goes to show that Group B has ascended the limits of time and made itself immortal. Loved and respected by the old being discovered by those too young to remember a time before mobile phones and the internet.

S4 Extraordinaire! A Dream! or a Nightmare either! What a BEAST ! ! ! and what a beautiful Martini logo!

Ah, WRC of 1986! This is the era of the legendary rally cars! Amazing work man, definitely deserves a like!

20:58 That speed of the Lancia Delta S4, almost unreal! >:D

4:11 works like an F1 pit stop...amazing ! Thanks marv for this Masterpiece video

a better world with all meanings. Feeling so nostalgic

Oh death in life........The days that are no more. (Tennyson) Thank you for your videos. You have shown what real rallying was to the younger generation.

Wow! Massive thanks for this video. Remember watch group B at the age of 14. This was a truly great era for rallying. Hats off to the drivers back then , so very skilled but completely bonkers to drive them machines. The S4 was insane and at the same time a dangerous monster . RIP Toivonen & Cresto

Bellissimo ed emozionante per chi come me ha nel cuore le splendide gruppo B Grazie tante per queste meravigliose immagini

Only place to go on YT for Group B. Can't get enough of your videos man keep em' coming!

Fantastic footage, history of rallies, and a wonderful commemoration of deceased fans in Portugal Rally - 5.III. 1986 (R.I.P), and Henri Toivonen and Sergio Cresto (R.I.P), Rallye de France - Tour de Corse - 2.V.1986...Amazing job You done, THX.
