REG: DKP 191T except the second clip, that is REG: FEK 472V Cant make out the Rally plate, but I know this car was in The Circuit of Ireland in 1982!
Ari is going to be competing in this years McRae stages in a mk2 escort alongside Mikkola, Waldegard, and many others.. Google McRae rally tribute for details.
Unmissable !
and was built in WIDNES CHESHIRE,where the car rolls on the Manx,I was standing on top of the bank where it came to rest,Harryman smoked cigs 3 at a time and produced a bottle of JAMESONS from somewhere,Ari was asked by an Irishman what happened,to be told,`I THINK IT CRASHED`!!!!!
It was an out & out racer,few drivers of today would be able to handle it,it was a pleasure to see it in a masters hands,drove as though it was stolen!!! ta 4 the clip.
There may have been faster drivers than Vatanen, but few who were as spectacular, which is why he will always be a hero of mine.
If you ever read this Ari, (which I doubt you will), can I just say thanks for all the memorys of your on the limit, and over the limit driving.
What a legend.
