It's not often that a YouTube video stops traffic in the PH office, but this epic showing the best of the legendary Group B rally cars did the trick.
It's a 'Greatest Hits'-type compilation, with footage including the Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, Metro 6R4, a bevy of Audi Quattros and Lancias, and even a few clips of Porsche and Ferrari rally cars. This is another 'Pure Sound' offering, too, meaning no cheesy elevator noise to corrupt the music of howling exhausts, flying gravel and squealing tyres.
As well as stunning cars and brave driving, some of the more heart-stopping moments feature the antics of the equally-brave spectators, who in true rally-fan fashion appear to have little regard for their own mortality. We salute you!
This 11 minute blast from the past was posted by YouTube user 'amjayes'. If you like this one, his other rally videos are worth a look too.
(Jalopnik saw this first - thanks!)
