Hey Caged, if you're going to get into it, make sure you Americanize the sport for us..There has to be some old Dodge Darts or Valiants laying around up there in the Berkshires !! It's been done before, keep it going !! :wootrock: :wootrock: :D

Rally drivers have the most skills in my opinion. The way they make the cars handle is unbelievable. They are also featured on TV very frequently in the UK :thumbs:

Here's my thing: In that entire video, I saw 1 car. 1. That's not a race. That's a guy driving on the road.

Don't get me wrong - it was impressive. But to me, that's more of a demonstration of stunt driving, not a race.

if my understanding is correct, there ARE other cars on the track but the races are just so long plus i dont know if they are in a circuit or not which would obviously further limit the number of cars you would see in any given race.

and for the europeans...who wants to pay for me to come over there and watch a rally race :rolleyes: :D

Yeah, see that still sounds sucky to me. The reason I like Nascar is the tight, fender-to-fender racing...watching some guy drive a circuit, without having any one else there to really make it interesting...like I said before...it's just a stuntdriving demonstration

Rally racing is covered in the states on the Speed Channel, you peeps must be missing it or not looking in the right places.

LOL you guys.

Each driver sets off about 2 minutes after the last one. They all have to drive the same route and the one with the quickest time is the winner. There are about 50 routes split over many days for most races. The driver with the best overall time wins.

It's not meant to be racing like on a track. It's simply the quickest wins. And believe me these guys are super quick.
