Lada Minx, 1967.One of the rare WRC cars of the time.This turbo was known to put out 2,000hp at 80lbs boost.Only had one gear,fourth,as the other gears didn`t really work due to the awsome torque.1,200nm by 300rpm.God those were the days.It was said;when the clutch was dropped at full revs (5oorpm)the Kremlin would move 3mm towards the west.I remember sitting in one and putting on the leather skull cap that driver Izzy Knickinoff wore in the 68 Siberian rally championships and I could actually smell the racing fuel,though later on I realized I was actually smelling Izzy.Apparently he never washed his cap.The car was only ever beaten once by a team of Tibetan yaks but they were disqualified for illegal race fuel,cocaine and and indian green curry leaves.I`ll just go see where I put those black and whites.........
