    Now were talking That McRae car was Y9FMC i have competed in Y6FMC :50:>>nice cars all of them , however i think the Audi wins here , it had to have all sorts of Aerodynamics just to keep it planted in the ground had it not it would have flipped due to the power :86:

    Same here, very rarely see the highest specs though, they must set the Americans back a few-bob.

    really ? wow. A knew that it was the first 4 wheel in Rally (is that right?) thats what made it such an achievement and a landmark really.

    The focus is a class car, just got so many memories of McRae in it. Legend.

    btw, whats the difference between y6fmc and y9fmc, first i have ever heard of them but i take it is the class of car ? the power of them ?

    I prefer retro box shaped cards. Like old BMW's and VW's.

    Yeah, that's the look I like. I'm not very knowledgeable about cars so I'm really just going for aesthetics here, but I'd love a car like that.

    the integrale was a special piece of kit ..Lancia Rally team created a monster that was never rallied as it was too fast !! it was turbo charged & Super charged it produced a whopping 800Bhp ..It was too fast for rallying and was just a memory for the test driver
