That classic C-Coupé at 01:32 is my fav car, maybe it's already close to 50 years old just like me, and it still can keep up with the others.. also squeezing 330+hp out of a naturally aspirated 2,4 CIH is just WOW ! The driver of that Skoda Fabia RS Rallye2 at 17:02 showed some bad-ass skills, tossing that hot hatch around corners with ease using the rear brakes, chapeau 🖤
Skoda Fabia's driver is the best. At 290 hp & 1200 kg car faster of Porsche (500 hp & 1230 kg) and almost so fast, as 900 & 700 kg Fiat cars - it's something incredible. Sorry for my English.
@@joe125ful Would pick either of the two over any of GT3 units for hillclimb racing given how nimble they are and how they move through those corners and on other hand,Huracan GT3 would be for circuit. At least that’s my approach to it.
@@hillclimbracingfan5821 I really dont like that design of that Fiat..Eeewwww!!! Yes they are fast but i prefer brute force of hard tuned Evos,many times they prove power is better. Ofcourse on race track GT3/Alfa 4C/SuperFast SLK will be great show.
Ghezzi,Zanolli,Ticci and Dondi were mesmerizing with their performances,showing how it's done and i also very much enjoyed Tortora and Freitag's way of attacking the hairpins and Aragona's Golf is such a wonderful machine,taking proven TCR chassis and combining it with four wheel drive and Audi's 5 cylinder turbocharged engine,showing how effective it is. Trento Bondone delivered again with action.
I’m a VW guy and the Golf is really cool, can’t ignore the X1/9s though. Absolutely love these little MR beasts. I would love to see a mk1 MR2 similarly tuned having a go.
Owned a X1/9 for more than ten years, but with no modifications. Did some Slalom with it and went top the Nordschleife. Great that they are still racing and be such successfull🤩
Wonderful congregation of machines, most of which haven't been seen this season before. Almost impossible to pick, but that Ferrari X1 still stands out for me - look, sound, and onboard were brilliant!
Crazy to see what a good suspension will do. That skoda had half the horsepower of the porsches while being the same weight and essentially getting the same time.
Exactly, and is what I love of this sport, as a progessional who have participated many times to the modification of some cars for this races in the last 15 years as the ECU calibrator, I can say that my dream is to some day, build a car or mine in the E1 class, hoping to do so in the next 5 years, budget permitting.😊

Fabia rally2 proving that a rally car can be competitive at any discipline, but not vice versa. And that's why I love rally cars, and unfortunately that's why they are so expensive. 😅❤
Absolutely! The two X1/9s were flying and Dondi is always amazing. But Zanolli in the low power, relatively heavy, and tall Skoda was getting everything out of that vehicle. Masterful performance! You could see it from the in-car footage as well. Smooth composed accurate driving while pushing so hard he beat all the high-power GT3s.
Wow, that corse upossed as a challenge all the cars had to slow down a lot witch is good we get to see these cars get tested to see how they preform, except that little blue fiat at the end I didn't see it slow down one time, that car is just ridiculously fast, A ton of cars and were to start, Judd V8 sounded so good and every car after that was just getting better, and what's the deal with that little neon yellow fiat and gray ferrari chasing each other they were some fast little cars, now my personal pick was that white BMW GT the one that looks like one of those new Mercedes-Benz AMG that there racing in GT, love those Benz sound nasty and look sweet and that BMW just like it a lot, so lots of great car's and the driver's I noticed some good driving skills they all did great almost if it was all about who had the best car wins, yeah I enjoyed this upload big thanks to all behind the whole process putting this together, good job and looking forward to your next video.
I would like to see a race series based on typical "spirited civilian driving", in other words staying in your lane but as fast as possible. Here in the mountains of Western North Carolina (and other parts of the USA) Miata and (the rare) Elise drivers push it hard, but they stay in their lane to be safe for other drivers, so taking the absolute "best line" gets altered by quite a bit. It can be a huge challenge to drive hard but within the scope of general recognized safety and it's a real skill. I drive a Miata and I back off in many areas that better drivers are maintaining steady momentum all while in a single driving lane. Watching a great "public driver" on a great "public road" can make you nod and smile. Maybe even more so than watching good track drivers. It could be a good race series for even the novice to aspire to. Hill climbs or timed road courses with just a 10' (3m) wide track.
Finally those ''litle'' fiats appeared again, too pity Carl Schagerl's Golf and Reito Meisel's Mercedes were missing, maybe in the future P.S. In this particular race even if they participated I don't think they would beat Dondi's time
The 106 is like a go kart inbtight curves.impressive with the turbo. The hard engine Sound of the old c Kadett is mega. Glad that there were not only these modern boxes like the rs3 lms. Very boring in comparison to the racing stuff of past times
Interesting questions...doesn't the ariel atom v8 use the hayabusa v8? So 2.6l v8 (without big bore ofc) ...custom bottom end with which transmission...hmmm...

That just danced up the course!
handbrake sensei!
with the right differential too
very smooth driving skills
That red Cadet was being steered by that man's right foot!! Damn!!

Flabbergasted with Manuel as always. He seamed just 5 seconds faster than Gianluca but holy shet at almost 20s faster.

@@Will._Power the engine question is easy , its just a big bore kit or stroker kit or both , the transmission is the big mistery here.
@@rolha666 I'd love to know as well. Looks awesome
how did the yellow 500 and the X1/9 get so close together at the end if the X1/9 was so much faster?
A hillclimb purpose build EV would kill it
