from 1986 onwards very strong competition from Jaguar and later Sauber Mercedes showed up as well as japanese cars of Toyota and Nissan those were very exiting times, not to forget the cars themselves brutal monsters with no electronics, classic H-shifter , those were real drivers

agree, well porsche dominated all 80's up to 1987 but porsche big advantage was to have a lot of cars in grid with at least 2 very strong backed/work teams, in general I could resume group C in:
early -> mid '80: porsche
late '80 -> 3.5L rule: TWR jaguar vs sauber mercedes vs porsche
3.5L early 90's: peugeot
