Jake, joined your thread, and changed this one to more of a WRC theme.

Mark.Yellow.Series.3, sounds like fun, but sounds scarey as well.

370 is a sick amount of HP.  That is more than real WRC cars.  There is only 300 in the Subaru STI.

I like rally racing, because they are about the closest thing you can have to what is on the road.  Obviously F1 cars you can't take on the road, and Stock Cars aren't real road cars.  But WRC cars get license plates and run on the streets.

Bush Tucker Man:
Formula 1 is just so boring, all that practicing & timing fuel stops so your driver gets advantage <yawn>

WRC is sadly going the same way, with the involvement of big-bucks TV,still it has proper action & the constantly changing surfaces certainly show which discipline has the better drivers


Australian Touring Cars are a blast though :D

beast5680:
well i like wrc but dont get to see much as they dont show much on the telly that i can get, i follow F1 mainly as my brother works for the Honda team, and when presented with the chance i will gladly sit down and watch the aussie nutters :lol:

Bush Tucker Man:
TVR Tuscan racing used to be good

I definity like to watch F1, my wife is trhe big fan, at her request I took her to Silverstone last year - Sheer hell!. Shame it won't happen this year but she will be 8 months by then.

I know a lot of people who knock F1 but ALL the innovations in raod cars (or 4x4's) heve come from F1 at some point: Radial tyres,disk brakes, dual brake systems, streamlininig, ABS, traction control, Fuel injection, engine management, advanced suspention, crumple zones... You could go on forever.

Basically money talks and F1 has the money.

For the record I have always been a McLaren fan and Wifey likes Kimi who it has to be said is the best 'racer' on the grid.
