    Jimmy is Colin's Dad. The McRae's are a rally family. He has a brother Alister who also rallies.

    Did you notice Malcolm Wilson was also completing?

    I believe that is some form of FIAT or Fiat derivative. Sounds like a 2 cylinder at the end of the video as he is sitting there. That video made me smile. :D

    Fiat 126. I used to have one exactly like that. 2 cylinder, 650cc air cooled 76 BHP 4 speed RWD 70mph top spend 0 to 60 in about 2 minutes if you're lucky. Interesting is both pistons go up/down together with huge counter weight on the crank. Changing the clutch was a 45 minute job with 2 persons. I got pulled over for doing 70 in a 30 zone in the UK but the cops let me go with a caution due to they were laughing so much. I bored out the carb and had a K+N filter and a straight through muffler. Best part was you started the engine with a lever between the seats.

    And I thought he was keeping his foot in it because ... rally! Turns out it's the poster child for momentum cars and you have to keep the revs up to keep the counterweight spinning or end up having to restart your 2 min run from 0 to 60. :D

    Regardless, I still say he looks like he's having more fun than nearly any rally driver I've ever seen.

    There is a lot of truth to the old adage, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. Momentum is your friend. :arf:
