Timo Makinen in one of those was the first stage car I ever witnessed. Nice.
Other than Henri Toivonen, Timo's my all time hero in the Austin Healey 3000. I had a long chat with his regular co driver, Tony Ambrose.
He said without pace notes, Timo could go flat over crests, with no knowledge what was on the other side, but confident that he could deal with it. Mostly he did. Normally when he crashed out, they were leading.
Apparently, even at 80mph full opposite lock on snow, he always steered with one hand. The other was naturally for holding his fag and gearchanging.
Ambrose also said that they often swapped seats at full chat, without stopping the car and that Timo was a lazy sod who only wanted to drive when they were in danger of losing an event.
