Thanks for sharing. Brought back fond memories of being a kid sitting at knickerbrook watching Cleland, Rydell, Menu etc coming down the hill into that chicane
Idk about that, I never think about Volvo when it comes to racing, at all ever. When I think of the 90s touring cars I think of Nissan, Renault, Peugeot, Alfa, Audi and BMW, never Volvo.
Man, just think, this stuff is consigned to the history books. Soon, a droolworthy engine bay will be replaced with a cylindrical electric lump and the spine tingling sound will be replaced by the sound of xmas morning in the early 90s and scalextrix.
Adrian Matthews so true my friend look I got amazing videos on channel would you like to have a look and subscribe I would be so grateful u know PEACE ✌️
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. The soundtrack to this vid is perfect. No stupid music, no stupid commentary. So many vids on here are ruined by awful bloody music & terrible commentary by some dullard who thinks his ‘Insights’ are worth listening to. Oh & the Faberge capri is *chefs kiss!
I wish they had used the V40 chassis as well as the S40 Volvo with that 5 cyl motor...!!...oh wait it does exist..I did it..I swapped my 1.9 l 4 cyl T4 for an N/A 5 cyl (V70) in my 2002 Volvo V40.....and it"s a marvel in this light car...Volvo should have proposed the S40/V40 cars with that engine...!!!..oh well...
Sa me rappelle quelque chose sa ce trouve j y etait aussi parce que plus jeunes j allais dans beaucoup de courses public auto en plus moi je drift de mon coter sans savoir qu on apeller sa du drift moi je deraper c est tout
@Adrian Matthews I see. Thanks for that. We have the same limitations here in South Africa. Originally our group 1 cars ran slick tyres but now I'm forced to use semi slick road legal tyres for the historic group 1 championship i race in.
Absolutely hated Rydell because he was so good and kept winning all the time in that era and my dad was selling Nissan's when I was a kid. When Nissan won the Championship back to back they were touring a white SRI around the country plastered with decals to make it look like the Championship car. My dad brought it home on a Friday after work. Cool at the time. The GT with the flip paint was cool as well. Hate Nissan's now pure junk, sadly.
Clicked when I saw that 850R on the thumbnail
Fantastic video. Thanks for letting us take it all in and not ruining it with music and commentary!
That Volvo S40 pit garage knows how to party
that 5 cylinder S40 absolutely sings!

Mad to think that Volvo was only used for 1 season but its the 1 we all remember

Btcc 1998 best touring car series ever! Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
Aguantee
This is proper touring cars n.a. power. That f323 sounds evil along with the Volvo. Miss these bad.
Ahhh fantastic memories of watching the money no object proper touring cars of the 90's and early 00's.
What an absolutely wonderful sound from those V6 Capris. Fantastic!
Escpecially that Cologne Capri with Cosworth GA V6 engine: The oldest, loudest, fastest and the most beautiful of them all! :D
2014→2019
Hermosas máquinas a pura potencia, que marcaron distintas épocas del turismo 👏👏👏👏👍😃
I was expecting an Audi A4, a Honda Accord, a Peugeot 406, a Ford Mondeo, a Volvo 850, a BMW 320i, a Alfa Romeo 155 and a Toyota Carina.
All these cool cars, their looks, their stance, all those cool center lock wheels, man... This is a dream to be able to drive on the road lol
John cleland and the cavaliers were my fave
The music of that Capri and Rover were wonderful ! .
Never did a better sounding group of car grace the track together at the same time.....epic.
Bar non one of my favourite UK tracks to drive in sim racing especially in classic race cars like these. The bumps, the blind corners, the speed 😁👍🏻
Man those Volvo battle tanks were cool AF weren’t they?
Wonderful video. Amazing machines. Thanks for sharing
That 850 wagon is so sexy! Where can I get a custom roll cage for my wagon like that?!?!.... wow!
i got goose bumps when the btcc 1999 cars were racing ...
Love the sound of that heavily modified N/A engines!.
Great video thanks for sharing!
Just fabulous sights and sounds.
The last true touring cars!
Year 2000 was the kast year of true BTCC
Best TH-cam soundtrack ever. Thank you from New Zealand.
Great film of a great weekend!
the sound of the s40 5 cyl is sweet, the rover v8 a the alfa gtv 6cyl are pretty cool 2
Epic to see these racing again , properly fast with no music like others do , brilliant video !
What a cool video. Miss seeing the old touring cars
2:57 thats attention to detail. not only having the machinery from the 90's but also the music
Impeccable fitment!
This video is great. Love the sound of this old cars

Si y avait le tunnel sous la manche j ai pue y être mais pas de souvenir trop loin ❤😂
Could watch this vid all day. In fact I probably will.
Awesome love it I prefer those cars than the ones of today where the politics are involved that was the real races I still miss them very much..
Adrian Matthews so true my friend look I got amazing videos on channel would you like to have a look and subscribe I would be so grateful u know PEACE ✌️
Back when racecars looked way more familiar to their road going versions. Much cooler imo
Nostalgia!
Nissan Primera crew in the house
Awesome!

best. racing. ever. 🤤🤤🤤love the 850 estate
cracking video!
I know they weren’t all racing, but what cars would have made quickest lap times there? E30 M3, Laguna? RS500?
Beautiful video!….
That Renault Williams Laguna still looks stunning.
Dear god bro, this video won you a subscriber right here. Awesome footage!
Cool video!
I do question why Cleland retired when he did, clearly still has it.
Awesome the Volvo is cool
850

Loving the Volvo pit
No fuk given party time
👍
Those were the days…
Are those e30s widebody ?
Sa me rappelle quelque chose sa ce trouve j y etait aussi parce que plus jeunes j allais dans beaucoup de courses public auto en plus moi je drift de mon coter sans savoir qu on apeller sa du drift moi je deraper c est tout
5:57 drums !! racing??
Why do the old group 1 rovers, capri's and the other group 1 cars race on crossply racing tyres when they used slicks in period?
@Adrian Matthews I've seen it when the whole race has been bone dry
@Adrian Matthews like at the goodwood members meeting they all use treaded race tyres now instead of slicks be it rain or sunshine
@Adrian Matthews and in this video the rovers that do have slicks, like the yellow one, aren't group 1 cars, they are later touring cars
@Adrian Matthews I see. Thanks for that. We have the same limitations here in South Africa. Originally our group 1 cars ran slick tyres but now I'm forced to use semi slick road legal tyres for the historic group 1 championship i race in.
0:23 can someone explain these rings to me? Is that just a grab for a center lock nut?
I think these are replacing the original nuts so they can tie the car down to those rings on the trailer.
They were there to prevent the wheel nut from undoing itself while racing if memory serves
BTCC 👑
J ai vues tellement de courses cher plus 5 ans non je pense pas ❤😮 est aujourd'hui d être bloquer ici sa me rend fou 😊
Renault Laguna..!
El R .Laguna , Mazda y el Volvo s40 muy lindo
Need a team to get engine started
When men were men.
I guarantee no woman has watched this incredible video. Those sounds, those cars… fucking incredible
That Volvo S40 is gorgeous. When cars were actually sleek and badass. Not these disgusting fucking Chinese crossovers we have today.
Nice video, too bad You are shaking the camera. You should have a drink 😉
Absolutely hated Rydell because he was so good and kept winning all the time in that era and my dad was selling Nissan's when I was a kid.

Unfortunately once Nissan got involved with Renault quality went down the toilet
There seems to be liquid in my trouser leg
Lap times please
@Adrian Matthews thanks
