    she was an absolute legend , I have a couple of Group B Videos around the house somewhere , let me see if I can upload it to Youtube ? She is unreal to watch.

    The more I read about Walter Rohrl, the more impressed I become. He was two times World Rally Champion, competed in the Le Mans 24 hours and various road racing events. Niki Lauda is quoted as saying he is a genius on wheels!

    Found this interesting quote:
    Walter Röhrl - head test driver at Porsche AG - is driving a Ferrari 599GTB on the Nürburgring (Germany) for evaluation. He’s driving along “swiftly” and notices he’s slowly catching up with another well driven car up ahead. … He gets closer and closer… And he notices it’s another 599GTB! … Now he’s at the other Ferrari’s bumper and when it’s driver makes an error, Röhrl takes him on the inside. … A bit later, in the paddock, the other car stops next to Röhrl’s. The driver lowers his windows and shouts: “LUNATIC!!!”

    Well… Apparantly M. Schumacher can be a bit of a bad loser sometimes.

    In his defence, he was beaten by the ‘ring Master’! At 60, Walter still has what it takes to set dazzling times on the clock and to make a car dance.

    This is amazing to watch!!!

    To see him drive across a corner, intentionaly drop a wheel into 14,000ft of nothingness,,,
