2003 WRC Highlight video
 
Has anyone found one yet? If so please post a link

Here's one

Was there one for 2002? The one for 2001 was great, much better music than for the 2003 vid.

Some excellent video there, but the music pretty much sucks!

There is a 2002 version with file name - rallywrc-2002 (12.1Mb). I've got it but not sure where you can download it. It is very good, nearly as good as the 2001 video. Awesome music by Stabbing Westward - "Save Yourself".

Ok--that was freakin awesome--where are more of those?

Found it, thanks Curt. I love that song but I still like the 2001 vid best. It's a work of art as well as a great tribute to the WRC season. The integration between the video, the music and even the lyrics ("...I put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go...") are almost perfect. It brings a tear to my eye everytime I watch it...the intesity in Delecour's face, Bugalski nodding his head urging his car on with gritted teeth, McRae kicking his car after it let him down on the Monte, the Subaru sailing through the air and speeding off down the trail in Finland (?)...I could watch it over and over (yeah, like I didn't just do that :)).

Here are the other two:

2001
2002

Turn the volume up!

Try Rally Planet as well. They have tons of other vids, too.

I like the part where the steering wheel is coming loose and they tighten it up while driving.

cegerer 02-06-2004 12:06 PM

Yeah, that's great isn't it? I also like the clip in the 2001 video where the guy (Delecour maybe?) snaps the shift lever off and graps the stub to make the next shift like nothing even happened. Those rally drivers are some of the best, bar none.

Yeah, and he doesn't even look at it to see if he can make it work, he just grasps what's left! They definitely are quite amazing (crazy?) in their abilities. It always amazes me how they control these cars, taking corners at 200 kph on loose gravel. From the in-car camera it always seems that the cars are only barely in control, even going in a straight line they are often twitching around from side to side. And when things go wrong it's rarely armco they hit.

I'm usually quite glad I'm on this side of the TV picture (although tarmac rallies look like they're a blast. Targa Newfoundland anyone? :) )

Ah, very nice site. Found another 2003 vid with better music ;)

Any Pelican ever been to O'Neil's Rally Driving School in New Hampshire? Roundel had a review of it a couple months back and raved about it.

It looks like it's a blast, but it's a bit pricey.
