Watch Rally Legend Stig Blomqvist Wheel A 1984 Group B Audi Quattro At The Race Of Champions…Yesterday! Rally History Lives Here!

Stig Blomqvist is one of the greatest names in rally racing history. He was the 1984 Champion and is widely recognized as one of the best ever. Just this last weekend on the island of Barbados the international race Of Champions was held and during the weekend Stig was let loose on the course with a Group B Audi rally car. The results are a little bit more than a clinic on the fast way around the course and how to handle a rally car like a complete boss. There’s some great sound and a bunch of great scenes here, especially the Scandinavian flick that he performs at one point when you are about sure that he’s going to clip the wall but instead takes the car perfectly up the hill and through the corners.

The turbo four and AWD are still in  perfect working order and it shows because Stig gets after the course and gets after this car hard. While a 30 year old Audi would probably have trouble hanging with the far smaller and lighter cars of today (not to mention more technologically advanced), we still think that in the right hands, these monsters could be fun to watch with the newish stuff. Being that this is the race of Champions, we could probably rope a pretty good lineup to take swings at these guys that I know.

The right car in the hands of the right guy and on the right racetrack is something that we could watch all day. Thankfully we’re using that phrase as a figure of speech because the legit part is that we could destroy a whole day just loving this Audi!
