Group B lives on!Codemasters have released a new trailer for their upcoming title,
DiRT 3.
The trailer showcases some of the legendary Group B cars in some sweet slow-mo action across some of the conditions you will see in the upcoming game. Rallying on snow, tarmac and pure dirt during the day and night, these ridiculously super-powered beasts will be being put through their paces, as players will have the joy of driving the Ford RS200, MG Metro 6R4, Peugeot 205 T16 Evo 2 and more!
But just incase you are not familiar with what exactly the whole 'Group B' thing is, Codemasters' themselves have a give a description included with the video:
Group B is synonymous with a short-lived period in Rally where light regulation and few restrictions on car development led to manufacturers producing some of the most exciting cars that the sport has ever seen. Group B cars have since entered Rally folklore since cars with their astonishing power couldn't have been developed during any other era of the sport. Sadly, these iconic cars were involved in an increasing number of accidents, which resulted in the banning of Group B Rally in 1986.
Here's the trailer:
