Homologation Specials Explained: Motorsport’s Greatest Accident

Homologation specials weren’t designed to be great road cars. They were built because racing regulations demanded it. From the Lancia Stratos and Porsche 917, to the Sierra RS500, Evo VI, Peugeot 205 T16— these were machines created to satisfy rulebooks, not customers. In this video, we explore the full history of homologation specials across rallying, touring cars, circuit racing and endurance competition. Why manufacturers were forced to build road cars for motorsport. Why many of them were uncompromising, uncomfortable, and difficult to live with. And why that honesty is exactly what makes them so revered today. We look at: – How homologation shaped rallying from Group 4 to Group B and Group A – Touring cars, the DTM arms race, and the escalation into ITC – Circuit racing, GT homologation and Le Mans legends – Why modern motorsport has largely abandoned true homologation Homologation specials weren’t meant to make sense. Motorsport came first. Customers were collateral damage. And somehow, that accident created some of the greatest cars ever built.
