    If I remember right Henri was driving one Costa Smeralda with Porsche (which he won) with his other foot in plaster and used crutches to move around.

    same as loix in sweden a few years back...and he also did very good for Loix standards....i guess plaster makes driver foot heavier on gas ....

    REVELATION !!!!!!!

    that was a wake up call for sure....
    Why such a negative attitude ? No one posted "REVELATION" nearly as spectacular as you want to prove . Surely noone is surprised that the C4 is faster , but I am personally very much impressed by how much faster it is ( the way the power is brought to the ground , how much later it brakes and how MUCH faster it climbs up the hairpin - the 037 looks like a Trabant compared to it ) . So am I an idiot because I am impressed ?

    I think there is a lack of surprise at the difference, largely because the 037 is a two-wheel drive car and the C4 is four-wheel-drive.

    Yeah, the lightweight 037 Abarth was only 2wd but still, they fairly (tightly though) defeated a multi million DM unreliable Audi Quattro armada in the 1983 manu championship.
