Ultra Red Megane 175
Took a road trip to Belgium last weekend for the Rally Legends Boucles de Spa, if you ever have a chance to go then do it! It's probably the closest thing you can get to recreating the legendary Group B days with f**king thousands of mad spectators from all over the place lining the stages. The atmosphere is amazing and puts most UK events to shame.
The only downside for us was the fact we had no knowledge of the stages (maps aren't released til the day of the event); and a couple of stage cancellations meant we spent most of the day flying around the Belgian countryside chasing the event. Good experience for next year though.
#1 - Former WRC World Champion Bjorn Waldegaard in a Group B Ferrari 308 [Drool]
^ If you're wondering why all the speccies are looking in a different direction, it was because local mentalist Francois Duval was right up his chuff at this point!
#2 - Current Citroen WRC star Thierry Neuville in Visa 4x4
#3 - Eric Van De Poele - Porsche 911 Group B
#4 - Former WRC star Francois Duval in an Escort RS1600
#5
#6 - Johnny Delhez in a Ford Escort Mk2 RS2000
#7 - Marc Duez in a Porsche 911 Carrera RSR
#8 - Didier Auriol in a Group 4 Escort RS1800 [Even more drool]
#9
#10 - Winners of the event in a Lancia Beta Monte Carlo (1/15th of a sec)
