Thirty years after the end Group B rallying, Helmut Deimel is now launching a film on rallying’s wildest era. For “Riding Balls of Fire”, the Austrian has delved into his archive for the best action footage of the 500 bhp Group B supercars in order to show the ultra-fast development in the sport from 1983 to 1986.<br /><br />As is typical for Deimel, the chronology of events is broken up by special features such as the failure of the high-tech cars in Africa, the fight for glory on the Race to the Clouds at Pikes Peak, and a preview on the planned Group S formula. Apart from the action on the special stages, “Riding Balls of Fire” also highlights the technological developments and the heroes of the supercar era. For his homage to Group B rallying, Deimel has spoken to all the important characters including the four Group B World Champions plus Walter Röhrl, Michèle Mouton, Ari Vatanen and the former team managers Jean Todt and Cesare Fiorio. <br /><br />Although this 100-minute documentary also deals with the tragic accidents, Deimel always focuses on the fascination of that era. “Riding Balls of Fire” is not a blood opera. It is a rally film that gets under your skin. Deimel’s review only throws a few critical stones at Group B rallying, rather preferring to strew rose petals in its wake in memory of a very special time. <br /><br />We're on INSTAGRAM: http://bit.ly/2evtvsg<br />Like us on FACEBOOK: http://bit.ly/2dKA2eQ<br />Follow us on TWITTER: http://bit.ly/2evt6Gv
