Hillclimb Delta Integale making shotgun noises

Yes please!

Jesus that's amazing. You need to fix your shotgun though....

I've got to be honest, i'm getting a bit bored of retro rides as a forum, seem to have to trawl through loads and loads of mediocre threads to find a gem hidden. Really would like to see it how it used to be, with fewer threads and cars of a higher quality, rather than a bazillion 'how do I get paint off my hands?' and 'any good postage companies to ferry a trim clip from the outer hebrides to the centre of the amazon basin?'

to make up for my minor rant, have some more integales -

Heres a few more for you to drool over ;D

Oh the Felix Pailer 'grale, loooong been a fan of that beast. Posted this on the YouTube thread a few months ago:

S'funny been playing exotic foreign hillclimb cars Top Trumps on another forum today, can't get enough of them!

I don't actually think is it anti-lag as there is not popping and banging on overrun, the banging is the ignition interrupt system for the flat shift gearbox.

Another vid of the mighty Pailer 'grale. from what I recall, it's an ex WRC car (well duh).
At this point in time - 2006- it was 'only' running 520bhp, now in the current season it's nearly 800 brake:


And as I'm an E21 fan, one of these:

Oh yeah E21s 3:16

And the Nic Mann (he of Minor fame) with his purpose-built hillclimb car: where is that helicopter? ;D

This used to be owned by Tom Hammond (of Hammond interiors - Hinckley), i was lucky enough to see it in action back in the late 90's on a sprint at the MIRA prooving ground. If memory serves that had anti-lag/ huge chattering wastegate and abot 700bhp.

What an awesome car with such pedigree/history and though sadly i doubt it'll be use in anger again.
