Post cursed cars
Crashed in Group B ending the series before it could achieve any success
Broke in imsa before it could also achieve any success.
these cars just weren't meant to be raced. their more remembered for Pikes Peak.
did Mercedes just forget aerodynamics exist in the late 90s?
>>28457573Leased to a rich wanabe that ought to stick to public transport.
DESU the writing was on the wall anyway.
>>28457674I wonder how many SUVs would pass the moose test. We don't have that here.
the mighty 3000GT. the most technologically advanced car in the world at the time. so advanced, that it came back around to hurting the car in both performance, maintenance, and reliability.
it was peak japanese economy bubble.
Does this count as a cursed image?
>>28457716I like the early ones with the pop ups, those were really the most problematic cars. At least Mitsubishi started stripping the doodads out with the MR trim cars.
>be Lancia
>always have Abarth the heavy lifting >cheat your way through homologation >build homologation cars as shitty as possible, cuz fuck 'em
>037 does okay against quattro, but see writing on the wall
>tell abarth to do it again, but this time remind them that you genuinely don't want your drivers to live
>delta S4
>decide roll cages are for pussies, so you should build them as worthless as possible, just like on the 037
>decide fire safety is also for pussies, so fuel tanks need to be as thin as physically possible and you need to place them directly under the drivers
>decide to double-fuck the drivers and save a few pounds by installing empty fire extinguishers
>car literally shakes itself apart and you have to rebuild it after each rally
>cabin always unbearably hot from engine
>composite floorboard constantly cracking causing the accelerator to get stuck
>an absolute difficult monster to drive
>have your best and most experienced driver crash and blow up on the rally
>be the actual deciding factor to kill group b
>>28457996Mega based, rest in power, king.
>>28457996>and after delta S4 oven job build most successful rally car in historyu can't be more based . It is such shame fiat retards did pull plug on Lancia rally program . Because Lancia was working on Delta HF/Integrale successor
>>28457873No, it counts as being fucking awesome and made of win. If Ford reinforced the fuel tank, and maybe made it mid-engined, then I think the Pinto legitimately could be a classic. Pretty big "if" admittedly.
