Forest Rally Stage

Group B rallying class

Among the many past categories of motor sport, few are more fondly remembered than the short-lived Group B rallying class. These off-piste supercars competed for just five seasons but left an indelible impression on all those who witnessed them being driven in anger and the 2011 Goodwood Festival of Speed is honouring these mad, bad and dangerous to know mid-engined machines on both the hillclimb course and the Forest Rally Stage. Cars such as the iconic Audi Sport quattro, Lancia Delta S4 and MG Metro 6R4 have all been out in action today, providing a vivid reminder of why we loved them first time around.
