For those that have never seen this:

Clicky
That is of course Walter Rohrl...

You can't wonder why they tightened up the spectator rules...

Nice footage, the camera pan to the driver is cheesy though!

Have you all seen this with Ari in the Manta 400. One of the best bits of incar I think I have seen.

That guy is "riverdancing" on those pedals. How man here would have the confidence to GUN IT through sepectator strewn streets?

Probably not me.............

Awesome on so many levels.

That kind of footwork surely cant be just learned, there must be a hidden talent there as well from birth.

Watched a DVD recently called the Vattennen Touch about his life in rallying. Amazingly chilled bloke and lucky to be alive too.

Some of the best footage was of the Pikes Peak challenge in the US when he drove for Peugeot in the 405 Rally Raid car. Absolutely trounced all the US entrants who were trying to scrabble up the hill in lardy assed muscle cars and RWD buggy type efforts. I think Pug did it just to prove a point
