    Help with a video Rally car up Mountain

    Going back a few years at the movies before the show was a short film/add taken from a helicopter of a rally car going up a mountain dirt road, it was one of the best bits of driving I have ever seen, pure poetry in motion at insane speed . Any small mistake would have resulted in total disaster.

    I have a vague memory the add was for a European car and the whole thing was shot from the air, Might be as far back as the early 80"s, maybe even further.

    There must be someone else out there who remembers this or even better is it still around on U Tube.

    Sorry none of the one suggested so far, the whole thing was filmed from the air with only music and a small add for the car at the end.
    The pikes peak look familular though, it might even be the first vid filmed from a helicopter.
    Given me a few more clues will keep looking
    Thanks Andrew

    It would almost have certainly been the Pike Peak Hill Climb... Have you tried sticking Pikes Peak into the YouTube search engine and had a browse??

    Could it be Bobby Unser in an Audi Sport Quattro on Pikes Peak in the USA?
