    Our car no.70 started to suffer like many others just after Ole Poles over the swampy Suswa.Red mud soils were waiting for us after it rained within Longonot Limuru slopes and we got bogged down.It took us almost two precious hours from the quagmire and on reaching Kisii town had already lost so much time and the car was quite tired.We limped back to Nairobi tired and disappointed and for more rallies later.

    This rally was dearly loved by all kenyans... You couldn't find any hater. It was such a thrill they would drive for 3days thru Easter holiday

    Racing in blue jeans, shorts and tee shirts. Got to love it.

    It was a good video.
    Lancer driven by Joginder Singh
    As a child, I have seen it in a dirty state as it is
    How hard the safari rally was
    I was amazed at my child's heart.
    At that time in Japan you can watch foreign races
    Because I could not do it, what I saw at this age was
    I was really happy.

      Singh raced a Lancer for Mitsubishi and it looks like he was still in an earlier model like 1974 because of the straight up tail lights. I am making a copy of his #46 car so that's how I know. I think he was a Lancer dealer at this time too. I think he won in 1976.

    Modern rally cars couldn’t last a distance like this with all the obstacles and conditions.

    Jean-Marie Balestre killed this best in the world sport prematurely! Every racer understands the risks involved and sign up to it!

      Rally has been watered down to accommodate the soft and mummy Boyz of this generation
