Lancia Stratos was one mean mo-fo!



I'm sure this means nothing to anyone (except Brad) but man, the old Group B cars (and courses, and spectators!) was some crazy shit! You can just tell everyone involved was so coked up they could barely see straight...love it! I mean do you want to watch some ice-cold Brit spin a Ford Focus on a closed course or some comb-over 80's Scandinavian with coke-bottle glasses getting sideways into about 1000 screaming Greeks as flames shoot out of his exhaust and his co-driver does Hail Mary's. Honestly the death-toll among spectators had to be ridiculous, and the so called homulgation cars were a joke, The "civilian" Stratos' windows didn't even roll down and the drivers head is about 6" away from the engine, hot as shit in there. Besides for the Stratos clips, watch for the cows wandering onto the course. Pucker!

  3. Make that "co-driver/team owner" and as soon as I have 2 cents to rub together we'll get 'Team DTFRSMMALF' (Does This Flame-Retardant Suit Make My Ass Look Fat?)rolling for the Steamboat Rally! Start trolling Ebay for a $300 Subaru Justy stat!
