Chris Harris - CAR - RSA Shootout 325iS vs Superboss

[anonymous-user]

Note: I've looked, can’t seem to see any thread for it, and not sure if CH plans to release his own video. I’ve briefly tried to contact regarding posting this, but contacting a “celeb” seems tricky. It’s gone live in South Africa, and is all over Facebook and Twitter, and decided to go with the “if it’s out there - share” approach. If there any issues regarding this post, delete this thread or contact me.

Chis Harris and Group N legend Deon Joubert in iconic South African shootout.

"Opel Kadettt 2,0 GSI 16V S, aka “The Superboss” and its rival, BMW’s 325iS".

It’s pretty special to me. I’ve made a post about mine before, where it sadly ended up burnt to a crisp. They are rather special cars that perhaps the non-South Africans will never “understand”. I’ve driven the yellow custard slice too in the video, and man what an experience. A testament to how well Chris Davison built it.

I knew all about the BM, didn't know about he Opel though. Fantastic!

Some great cars came out of SA back in the 70's and 80's.

Great video.

Saffa car I most want is a BMW E23 745i, with the M5 motor instead of the Euro turbo. Interior was almost totally covered in white buffalo leather.

Some great beemers to come out of our trade restrictions. One of them being the 333i. BMW SA took the motor from the 733i/533i and slapped it in a 2 door E30. Mate of mine has one with a little NOS in it - fairly wild.

Chris seems tired/bored at 4:50

Thanks for the link! Will watch this video tonight.

The most surprising thing about this video is that it shows how good the normal Drive/Neil Carey vids are.

This was just a tad dull and Mr H looked like he was having to make an effort.

Judging by the way Chris was blinking and stretching his eyes I would say he was extremely knackered.

Interesting couple of cars though

They were involved in a MASSIVE track shootout that day/weekend. And I think they also had a heavy night out - not sure if before or after.
