Does anyone have or know of anyone with any pictures or footage of this event. In particular I'm trying to find anything showing the Charade GTtis in action.


Thanks

Hi Allan.

I have some good footage of both the '89 & 90 RAC rallys.

Coverage of the '89 event was very good from the BBC: I have all rally reports as shown on BBC2 on video. I remember footage of the Daihatsu, driven by Terry Kaby (who used to be co-driven by a chap I know well) if I remember rightly.

The '90 event coverage was terrible: the only BBC report being on Sportsnight a week later if memory serves correctly. I have this report, plus the review of the event from Duke Video. Again I think Kaby drove.

There is also some good Charade footage in the (I think) 1993 British series, when Scott Bradshaw campaigned the same ex-works car in the series, including some in car footage. Again I have the tape.

You can gladly borrow these: mail me offline if interested.

Yes, I was watching the British 93 championship video again this week and remember a few clips of the charade in action. I'll be watching the 92 season this weekend, so will let you know....

I too remember diving into a snowdrift near Chatsworth House as Louise Aitken-Walker's Cossie came thundering through, slightly sideways...

In my opinion the 1989 rally was one of the best. Certainly a lot better than anything in the last 10 years...
