Colin's feat from Argentina 1998 when he bent rear suspension arm, fixed it roadside with a huge rock, almost exceed maximum lateness before next stage and drove fastest time on that one.

Armin Schwarz in 1997 Safari where his Ford broke throttle cable but ingeniusly used co-driver Giraudet's shoe laces to operate the throttle for the remainder of the section.

Markko Martin's bonnet flying up in Greece. Markko and Beef carried on regardless, despite nearly suffocating.
Speedqueens website is offline while I rehome it, but it will be back, and much bigger than before.

Carlos Sainz @ Argentina 1990
This has to be the craziest moment in rallying. Remember Luis Moya shouting out the notes like a machine-gun? In Rally Argentina 1990, he turned over 2 pages of his pacenote book instead of one and the notes he was shouting out to Carlos Sainz bore little relation to the rapidly aproaching scenary. Carlos promptly crashed his Celica and rolled 3 times. Remarcably they got themselves in motion again an went on to finish second to Biasion."Nada pode me separar do amor de Deus"
