Ari Vatanen was alway a great hero of mine in the MkII Escort Days, he was so committed (or close to a big accident) on Tarmac.
I think it was at the start of the TV coverage of the Manx Rally one year when his Black Escort suddenly lunged into view, totally sideways with huge slick tyres totally filling the wheelarches of the car.
As you say, Tony Pond was another one, and also now departed, Pentti Arikkala (especially in the Chevette HSR) was another good one.
