2 - 1984 RAC Rally - Chatsworth

3 - 1987 Malaysian Grand Prix (Bike/Car) including Honda step through racing! If I remember correctly the RX-7s blitzed the touring car race, and when they fired one up in the pits just as local Prince arrived it totally drowned out anthem and associated announcements! What a noise!

Magnus,

Great photos. I would be interested in getting more info on car if you have any other links. I will have a look round myself as well.

I also remember seeing a great promo video shot by MRTE detailing their rally season for 1985. I saw this at MRTE presentation of GpA 323 car at Mazda Dealer in Bath prior to 1986 RAC Rally. Has anyone else seen this or even got a copy of it?
