The History of Le Mans | Part 2 (1982-1998)
333WATCH Part 1 - https://youtu.be/tUKWi0Dw07Y
A decade, brimmed with innovation. Speed, more than ever before. Extreme fashion statements, new wave music, the first launch of the Space Shuttle and the continuing allure of Concord. A peak in arcade gaming, and the introduction of the GameBoy.
We had fire-breathing Group B rally cars and turbo-powered rocketships dominating Formula 1. And, amidst this golden era of motorsport, we had Le Mans prototypes with downforce, unfathomable acceleration, noise, flames and speed. Ridiculous speed. I am talking about the 1980’s.... I am talking, about Group C.
Join us on a journey through the '80s and '90s at Circuit De La Sarthe. Through the magic era of Group C racing and the initial domination of one German manufacturer, all the way through the late 90s and the short but sweet emergence of GT1.
