TORAcast Theme for the next season. It has to be. This is just the one.

Used in BBC's coverage of the RAC rally, and also used for Channel 7's ATCC coverage. I think.

It's a real life video-game race!

8 cars for 5 laps around Zolder.

Fujitsu Series racing!

''This is the same knob I won races with''

Whats actually quite interesting about this is that Nigel makes a point about the ''unusual'' features, such as the ability to refuel the car, adjust the car through the cockpit and adjust the front wing during pitstops! Things that Formula 1 inherited from Indycar!

Oh how my Catholic RE teacher would rip this apart like a Lion to a Zebra.

the morning news channel i watch while i get ready for work played this too. Hilarious, but at the same time a bit pointless to be shoving religion down everyone's mouth when they watch a nascar race. when i do happen to catch the pre-race coverage, i mute the entire thing when some 'reverend' starts this dribble

...AND ANOTHER!

Dickie Davies to begin with, but then hands over to TV's Mike Smith on commentary duty (!?)

Little known fact, Mike Smith auditioned for the ITV F1 Presenting Job that eventually went to Jim Rosenthal at the end of 1996.

British F1, you just could not do that these days. But it is a shame that more championships don't use Formula One regulation cars (Although, BossGP, one of my favourite open wheel series does let old F1 cars in..)

Some great classic Top Gear. Jezza's reputation was forged long, long before the current iteration of Top Gear. This is classic Jezza!

Ken Block helmet-cam footage from Rally Deutschland.

As well as something interesting I found.

Here's a video of the New Brighton Promenade Rally 2011 which i went to last night and today, this video is from their 30th anniversary special stage, the first ever super special stage to ever be held on public roads outside of the WRC!

Even Carlton Kirby can't ruin this. FIA GT, in better times, with better cars.

by nickyf1 Tue 8 May 2012 - 1:55

Also, while I'm here. Here is an interesting comparison.. Notice how different an F1 car drives in 1997 compared to 2011, not to mention the difference in laptime.

After almost a year, it's about time I revive TORA's greatest thread. I've lost touch with motorsport over the off-season, but I'm up for a good bit of nostalgia to get me back in the mood!

2003. The days of V10s and a tyre war. F1 cars had never been faster. This was probably one of the best seasons in the 2000s, with Raikkonen, Montoya and Schumacher gunning for the title! We also saw the emergence of Fernando Alonso as a real talent, and Ralf Schumacher was actually quick!
