@africankat1 : I have lots more SA motorsport coverage of those days, but not sure whether there is any more Group 1 - I was a Formula 2/Atlantic addict then, before we lost those cars at the end of 1986! I'm (very) slowly converting most of the collection to digital and if I find any more Grp 1, you can be sure that you will find it here.
OMG, i was looking for Group One video for such a long time, thank you for uploading. Do u have earlier footage of the season involving the XR6 Intercepter driven by Serge Damseux?
@africankat1 : I never knew that the Ford team were also mucking around with the regs - I remember the big drama when the Alfa's were called to scrutineering after one of the Kyalami races and always thought that this was the ultimate death knell for Group 1.
@photovideo270 i'll be watching your channel closely looking out for new vids :D preferably Group 1 or Group N, i loved the older Production Car Championships. Do u mind if i ask how u got these videos? I tried awhile back with the SABC but they were clueless really :/ ps. the XR8's in this race were later found to have had illegal cylinder head mods - then started the collapse of Group 1 :(
@photovideo270 Yeah i recall the Alfa drama :), when the XR8's were found to be illegal Ford pulled out and that was that really. IMO i think alot of teams/manufacturers from that era might have bent the rules a little such was the desperation to win.
Aweseme stuff, loving all this SA motorsport history, these drivers were hereos all of them!
Thanks so much for sharing!
