Champion Fogarty Tribute Edition

An in-depth tribute to the legendary Foggy including the complete Champion Carl Fogarty-licensed video packed with action footage of his early races in Britain, his TT and NW200 races and the World Superbike series which he has made his own. Additional features include freeze frames, extra footage filmed during the 2000 WSB season, recent, exclusive interviews with those closest to Foggy concerning his retirement and attitude to racing and a complete rider biography. There’s also detailed fact pages on his race history, championship wins and bikes.

Champion Kenny Roberts

Nowadays he's a mentor and manager but here you can relive the unique flair that made America's ‘King’ Kenny the sensation of the late '70s international GP scene.

Kenny Roberts arrived on the GP scene after winning the American Grand National Championship two years in succession. In his first year he won the 500cc World Championship - and then went on to make it a hat trick with overall victories in '79 and '80! (Note: approximately half the content of this tape also appears on ‘King Kenny - the Grand Prix Years’)

Champion Geoff Duke

Six times World Motorcycling Champion, six times TT winner, 1951 Sportsman of the Year - Geoff Duke O.B.E. was the name in motorcycling in the 1950s. His extraordinary riding talent and almost scientific approach to racing established Duke as probably the first true professional to grace the pages of motorcycle sport history. During the fifties he had such a following that 400,000 people - a record to this day for any GP - turned up to see him do battle for Norton with the mighty BMW team in Germany. In this first and definitive video biography Geoff Duke personally recounts the story of his remarkable career.

Still Too Fast to Race

Even more from the full story behind the awesome Group B Rally cars, featuring mind-blowing contemporary and archive racing footage of these fire-breathing rocket ships at blistering speeds!

Declared “too fast to race” at the end of the 1986 season, the Group B cars changed the face of rallying! The Lancia Delta S4 could accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2-3 seconds on a gravel road, and Nigel Mansell is reputed to have said that the Peugeot 205 T16 could out-accelerate his F1 car!

All were built to reach at least 400bhp, so we pushed these super-charged beasts to their absolute limit to see what else they could do, with legendary ex-World Rally champion Stig Blomqvist behind the wheel!

This sequel to the highly successful Too Fast to Race showcases even more of these turbo-charged machines, including:

-Audi Quattro Series 3-winged monster

- Lancia Delta S4

- Ford RS200

- Peugeot 205 T16

- Lancia O37

- MG Metro 6R4

You may never witness them on the World Rally stage again, but the entertainment provided by these supercharged monsters remains, to delight fans old and new.

Here is another priceless opportunity to see them restored to their former breath-taking glory! A must for all rally and fast car enthusiasts!
