High quality video of 1st gen rally action

Jalopnik had an article with an embedded YouTube video featuring the sights and sounds of Group B. I was watching it, and was like "holy ****!!!!!!!" @ 2:13 in. Sure enough, it's a full blown FB rally car. I don't think that the FB was ever a Group B contender, but I think this is, to date, the best Rally7 footage I've ever seen.

That may have been Rod Millen who had an SCCA open class rally FB but took it to some groupB races. It was a 4x4 as well.

Heres another:

In Europe, and on the WRC circuit in general, they let spectators do almost whatever they want because they figure that the people are competent individuals who know the risks involved with their actions.
