If that is for a fact, it's a huge shame. I hope it'll be done and published anyway.

Previous books that have been given the title of official book of the wrc have usually died the year after!

Saw the previous years edition and havent purchased it as it wasnt for me.

Shame about World Rallying though as having a complete run and knowing the main photographer pretty well, it feels as though something will be missing from now on..

I got comfirmation for this too: no Holmes' book on this year unless a new publishing deal surfaces. Really a shame. Pirelli World Rallying has been fundamental.

Searching and buying all the original books and mags of the Group B wouldn´t be cheap either, and in the end it still wouldn´t be the same thing as this. So instead of searching all the books out there, I´ll propably settle for one good one.

Newbie posting here.....just wondering if there was any further verdict/review of the Group B Owners books ? I am thinking of 'investing' in a copy but it is a LOT of money for a book.... Interested to hear more Miika if you would be so kind to advise ? I have quite a few books in my collection, Rally, Rally Cars, M-Sport books etc and wonder whether it is actually worth the money......

anybody has the new MaRae bookazine from autosport and MN? comments?
