No biggie. I just wanted to label them out for myself since it is so hard to find info on the CIVT series in which the 155 GTA competed.Originally Posted by awestun
The Nissan gets a definite 10 as it was the best gas powered (and therefore best sounding) vehicle of the 2009 Dakar.
1968 Corvette L88 Scuderia Filipinetti Le Mans Racer
of course the vette gets a 10. The L88 imo was the best vette yet.
That's WTCC champion Ivan Muller. Sadly after that pic was taken, a truck hit him and the car burned down. He was fine but the car, not so much.
Next...
olive garden 550. Wasn't that car notorious for breaking? 10 for a ferrai.
It was an Italiaspeed car. Not a Prodrive so I'm assuming so.
Back in the days when Indycar was right there with Formula 1. Penske vs Reynard vs Lola and Andrettis vs Mansell vs Fittipaldi.
1997 Penske PC26 Mercedes (The last Penske Indy Car)
I remember seeing one of those cars in "Scariest crashes of all time" at Indy.
Therefore, 9

98 Subaru Legacy GT
89 325i. 400hp hoon-mobile.
e31 race car, 10. If anyone gives an 8-series less than a 10, they know nothing.
I never even knew they raced the 8-series. Amazing.
10 for the Dakar Lancer.
I may have posted this before, so if I have, forgive me.
8.7 for opel.
Oooh. This is a great one. I remember seeing it a while back but never found the info on it.
BMW X5 gets a 10. The whole team had Colin McRae badges.
8
I just picked up a Colin McRae memorial badge for my bimmer too. Coincidence.
Speaking of Colin:
I love the Metro 10!
here's Rally Cross legend Will Gollop in his twin Turbo 6R4.
^10 for that turn!

Can't see in the original but i got it.^10 for that turn!

I've never seen that before. So it is a Fiat Doblo. What is the event?
Here's the new Camaro that will be used in the Swedish Camaro Cup.
9.5 for the Camaro. Very nascar-ish lol.
Fiat Brasil designed it for the Rally dos Sertoes (Dakar type race across Brazil). It's always in July so a lot of the Dakar teams race in it for testing purposes. I guess I should have typed what it was.
Carlos Sainz won it this year, I think the VW Toareg was posted earlier in the thread but oh well:
Can you use photobucket or something? I can't see pics from that link.9.5 for the Camaro. Very nascar-ish lol.
You are right. Camaro is too Nascar-ish for me.
Post something else.....the VW was like 6 before.
Here's the next one to keep it going.
10 for lanica.
10 for the car. The teams actions are being looked after they ran 3 cars at Zolder. Probably to block the Vette teams.
1959 Porsche 550A Spyder 'Durlite'
most Porsches deserve 10 so I'll give this on just that.
6 cause Renault hardly uses it outside the Belgian championship. They need to make a Prototype or rally car since they don't have a sports car currently.
Subaru F12 Minardi that never raced.
subaru f1 gets an 11/10
Not the Msport one but this is Ford's WRC future.
TVR 5000M - The Final TVR built in Blackpool.
^^
that is nice
tvr = 9/10
Can't but give good grades for the 911. 9.5/10
Mega Glace
Three-time French Andros Trophy champion between 1993-1996.
Prototype of a four-wheel drive, four-wheel steering ice race car powered by a 300 horsepower central front turbo engine.
Complete vehicle design and study providing the full manufacturing drawing (powertrain, chassis and suspension, 4W steering, bodywork, cooling), bodywork master building, choice and control of major sub-contractors, initial assembly followed by supervision of the assembly at Mega.
10, I love custom ice racers.
Reply #666 is for me so i'll get one of AC/DC's singer Bryan Johnson's race cars.
He's at the Mitty at Road Atlanta every year!
1970 Royale RP-4
Go Bryan!
that episode of top gear was awesome. 10. Good choice.
10 for the looks and engineering compared to the standard.
I could have sworn i posted that before but it was just the Dakar rally version. That one went on to be used in Rally cross.
Here's another one from Mega. The Mega Desert contested the 2000 Dakar.
If you did, I'm sorry. It's hard to keep up with all the cars that get posted in this thread.
Anyways, that mega looks tough. I'll give it an 8.
Here's an 800whp WRC inspired focus.
Basically it's a Ford Focus body, with an Escort Cosworth drive train, and a tube frame chassis.
More info on that please ^. 10 for sure.
About the Opel. That's the thing, i didn't post it. I was reading about the Group B 4x4 Opel and saw the pic. I posted a Dakar version instead.
Here's something i saw for the first time ever today. From the Argentinian Turismo Carretera......I really don't know what to think. They look worse than COY and COT Nascars.
I have no more info sadly, I saw it in a thread on piston heads.
I think that is one of the ugliest race cars I've ever seen. I'll give it a 2 just for being a race car.
btw, I loved that episode of top gear in your sig.
100/10
Now i did post that one before and you'll be happy to know the engine used in that car is a DTM/ITC Opel Calibra V6 developed by Cosworth.
^10 most any Ferrari is a 10 in my book..
gt2 ferrari gets 10.
here's one I know none of you have ever posted.
^8
If you dont know the car dont rate it lol.. Dahlback Golf. AWD 800+ HP depending on the boost per track. Awesome videos on youtube.
what drive train does that car use? I'll give it a 9.5
Prost lost in 2009 but he'll be back for 2010. Prost gets a 10.
Dahlback Golf. That was the first ever Eurotuner issue that i bought.

For my post, a bike hasn't been on in a while.
After GP bikes, the 70-early 90's endurance bikes are my favorite.
It usaes a 5 cylinder Audi drivetrain.. The Dahlback company have had it dyno'd at 850hp at 8500RPM before the Dyno read error codes. The cars redline is 11000RPM and pulls harder as the RPM rise. They clain it should have 1200AWHP. There is a great article that tells a lot about the car and the amazing setup it is running... The Dahlback Golf gets a 15 out of 10 in my book. You need to check it out on youtube and read up on it if you havent seen it before here to understand why this car quite possibly be one of the nicest race cars ever built.
Here is a link to the article.. http://www.eurotuner.com/featuredveh...gti/index.html
Oh you better believe I will. the endurance bike gets an 8.
