The legendary Group B has been banned for over 20 years now but it still inspires legends and respect. The cars that raced in the group are still among the most sought after and are hailed as icons of Group B. These cars included the 350hp Audi Quattro S1, BMW M1, Ferrari 308 GTB and 288 GTO, Lancia Delta S4, Porsche SC RS, the legendary 959 as well as a four-wheel drive Mazda RX-7. These high powered cars stormed down dirt trails and snow at insane speeds and in the process caused numerous accidents, a lot of them fatal. It was because of this reason that the FIA decided to ban Group B and in the process immortalised Group B as one of the most feared and respected world rally groups ever.

Here’s a tribute video to Group B, complete with engine and spectator noise. Click here to learn more about Group B.
