Thanks, good to see some articles on these monsterous Group B rallye cars, specially the lancia's which seem to be overshadowed by the current stars the EVO and WRX.
Shame that lancia no longer has a proper replacement for the Delta Integrale to take the battle to the EVO and WRX and Focus RS. The pure dominance of the Lancia will never be known to rally fanatics these days and its encounters against the Celica GT-4, the Ford Cosworth during the Delta days, and with the Quattro and 205 Group B cars with the 037.
Wonder if EVO will feature on the rather unusual Lancia Stratos, the ferrari engined rallye car.
I had an old photocopy comparing the Group B Rally Cars, the Metro, the Monte Carlo, the 205 and the Citroen. Sadly the copy is badly smugged (over 12 years old!!). It was from the FastLane magazine (an UK mag no longer in circulation I believe). Wonder if anybody has that article.
