Twas the night time earlier than Christmas and all via the home, not an engine was stirring, not even… Okay I assume it isn’t the night time earlier than Christmas, however the official marker of vacation season has lastly arrived. Crack open the ‘nog barrel and be a part of the refrain.

These purveyors of wonderful previous race vehicles, Girardo & Co., launched their annual vacation video. In line with custom, there is a badass rally automotive ripping round and loads of smiles. Certain it is an advert for his or her providers, however I can converse from private expertise after I say the individuals who run the place are a few of the most-devoted rally followers you will ever meet, educated about these basic machines and deeply related to the individuals who constructed and raced them.

The belle of the ball for 2024: An ex-Works Ford Focus RS WRC that Carlos Sainz Sr. drove to second within the 2001 Monte-Carlo Rally. (In a pleasant coincidence, the newest VHS Rallies video covers the 2001 season finale, which did not finish nicely for Sainz or his Focus). 

Simply to listen to and see the previous Focus WRC being labored, irrespective of how quick the clip, is a joyous factor. Get pleasure from.
