Here are the latest versions of top 10 rally seasons 1973-2010. This “project” was on hold for over a year but I thought that if I started it, I’ve to finalize it at some point. When I started again, I made so many click, click…. that I lost all the power from my right hand fingers and had to have a couple month of break again.

Both files include a main page, from where you can choose the year to browse. Clicking on the “year” button takes you to that year of “drivers” or “cars”, “drivers points” or “manufacturer’s points” and “rallies 1973-2010” where you can filter by “year”, "position", “rally”, “driver” and “car” or any combination of these.

Both files also includes tables for “driver-cars” which show what cars a certain driver has driven and a table “cars-drivers” which shows the drivers of a certain car.

The file “WRC cars 1973-2010” also include wins of “make-evo”, “make-model” and wins of a makes.

If someone doesn’t have Excel, you can download an Excel viewer from Download: Excel Viewer - Microsoft Download Center - Download Details

Download links:

WRC drivers 1973-2010.xls download - 2shared

WRC cars 1973-2010.xls download - 2shared

At least year 1983 was a peculiar year because they’re where several drivers far outside top ten that got WRC points. For example Mike Cameron got 2 points in NZ with a 27^th position and that’s was because it was the first year only group A, B and N cars & drivers scored championship points.

I hope we could have this thread also as a general discussion of rally history regulations, when homologations where taken in use etc. because there’s already a thread about history results.

Crazy project !!

Thank you !!

Yes, it was. If had knew how much time it will take I probably wouldn’t have begun doing it. Only to get cars & drivers in some sort of order I had to make 2*39*3 = 234 sorting (Excel can sort only 3 columns at time) + to get the cars and drivers combined whit each other in the cars and drivers spreadsheets. Begun whit Access but then I remembered that Excel has Pivot tables and it was more easy to do it with the Pivot tables.

But I think I will update the files with the 2011 & 2012 seasons at the end of the year or beginning of next year.

Great stuff! Does it work fully with Openoffice's Calc?

I have moved these posts into this thread because the regular contributors said they only want to have one Rally History thread.

Thanks for the info. Could you please notify a moderator of the WRC sub-forum to either delete the threads “WRC results 1973 – 2010” or change the link to “Rally History (part III) for the first thread and delete the second one. I don’t know how I managed to make a double post of that thread.

No. Everything else seems to be working except the buttons choosing the year. Only way I’ve got them working was to go to Tools – Macros – Run a Macro and [+] for WRC drivers 1973 – 2010 or [+] for WRC cars 1973 – 2010 and then [+] for Standard and click on Taul1 (cars) or Taul2 (drivers) and choose a macro to run (CommandButton1_Click = year 1973, CommandButton2_Click = year 1974).

Not the easiest way to choose the year. Maybe faster to go to the spreadsheet and search the year to be browsed. And don’t anything about Open Office and haven’t use it much, but maybe here’s some member that knows more about how to convert Microsoft Visual Basic to the corresponding Open Office “Visual Basic” if it’s even possible.

Thank You, EightGear !
I have the top 10 of each of those rounds but thank You anyway

Best regards
Jorge

I noticed that the command (year) buttons doesn’t work in Excel Viewer either.

The only solution for those who don’t have Excel is to download Open Office from:
Apache OpenOffice Downloads

I found the tools to “reconnect” the buttons to the macros.

The Open Office files can be downloaded from:

WRC drivers 1973-2010.ods download - 2shared

WRC cars 1973-2010.ods download - 2shared

At least the buttons works with my 3.2.1 version of Open Office

Have fun.

Thanks, Jorge!

I made one mistake. Co-driver of Ari Vatanen at 1976 Tour of Dean was Peter Bryant, not Terry Harryman as I wrote yesterday. Sorry.
