            absolutely worth watching! despite the fact, that they mixed the engine noises with the wrong pictures.
            so be prepared for peugeots with I5-sound

                Awful watching the crashes where people died, but surely to **** you don't stand on the outside of a corner and have your child stood next to you.

                Bad management and stupid spectators were the death of Group B.

                  Great programme, brought back the memories.
                  Saw the group B monsters in the welsh forests every year, nothing compares before or since. Never forget the sound of the S1s at full tilt splitting flames. Crazy fans,Crazy power.

                      I heard the crash was the reason for the end. I'm astonished by the spectators though!

                          unbelievable by todays standards. Balestre really was an A1 prick, that really came out in the Senna documentary too.

                          Great program, brought back memories of watching it with my dad when I was 5 and 6.
                          Now the Mrs understands why I love turbo charged 4 wheel drive cars so much, and she even commented that the quattros sounded cooler than all the other cars

                              I reckon we would still have group b had it been better managed in terms of crowd and car safety.
