Hi folks

Thanks a million guys for letting me know the existance of the video since it brings me back very great memories; actually the truck was supposed to compete and beat not only the truck cathegory, but also the main cars such as the group B based and official pug 405 Turbo 16

However, the project lasted very little time since through the first attempt one of the trucks was wrecked as you can see on the video, and therefore it was banned the truck cathegory; even the next years the trucks were only alowed for supplying the material for the cars and bikes

Finally the truck didnt have only 1000bhp, it even had 1200bhp; moreover, the year before Jan de Rooy competed in a more weighted but at the end of the day in a 800bhp monster

Btw...is Raphael Sperrer a multi austrian rallying champion who has competed already in a renault maxi megane or a seat cordoba WRC among other cars?
