John Cleland - Remember watching him growing up in the BTCC and just beeing so allways remeber the 1996 championship as well with him in the last of the cav supertourers

Rossi - Simple, hes by far the best, and knows it, but the way he goes about it makes him a favorite

Chris Walker - some people may question this, but there my ledgends, Just IMo one of the most talented riders, also never forget the Bsb championshsip with him and hodgson battling it out, and also the wildcard entries that year in the WSB at donington

Nori Haga - another rider, so so talented and scary

What about John Surtees? F1 and motorbike world champion?
Surtees was good his record shows that but deffo not in the class of Hailwood simply no contest. As a F1 driver he was very average remember Hunt 'The Shunt' & Damon Hill were world Champions but would not make the Top 100 F1 drivers. Moss never won the title but was a supreme driver winning races in un-competative cars. Being Champ aint a guide im afraid.

You'll find this was '95,

Cleland is one of my favourites, always seemed to give that little bit more

McCrae in New Zealand '94 and '95, being 30 seconds faster over one stage than anyone else was awesome, and also his comeback on the '95 RAC. I was at the flying finish of the stage he re-took the lead, 21 seconds faster than Sainz

Mansell is in my eyes the best F1 driver. His self belief got him to the top

Yeah I got the same video of the rs200 mate

He was unfortunatly killed on a rally stage in America driving a subaru two or 3 years ago. The accident happend about 300 yards from the start of the stage. Something happend and the car hit a tree at very high speed. Mark and his co-driver where killed instantly

I have a video of him setting off the stage. You can hear the engine in the distance then nothing. Very very eiree
