Nice vid!

For anyone who isnt familiar with Group B, in 1984 (iirc) Henri Toivonen did a lap of Estoril in his S4 I think it was, that or an 037 and lapped the circuit so quick he would have qualified 6th for the formula one race of that year. Gives you some idea of the amount of power, and when you picture these cars on tight winding gravel tracks
