Phoenix Gold Phorum

My lack of WRC coverage is getting to me now. This is a 10 min clip of my favorite driver in the FIA WRC, Sebastien Loeb. Overall, this is my fav form of racing.

So, who wants to take him on?

ahh the sound of screaming strait cut gears ! but with a flapy padel gearbox

not big enough

Even if someone only watches 2 mins of this video, you'll still get an idea of how insane these guys are. On another video they were getting up to speeds of 200 kph on roads more narrow than that of some of our driveways.

I LOVE WRC watching driving. i have always wanted to do that, but the last thing i need is another ridiculously expensive hobby

No not me. What is even more amazing is that speeds usually look slower on video that they do in person.

Why WRC when you can Group B

Good in its/his own right, but other than death defying orange cones, where's his balls?

The pylons were added later to keep drivers from constantly dying. The cars were TOO fast.

However, I will up the ante. This is the ballsiest rally video I know of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmhb4kHfAgc

I LMAO. That's more like it. "Oh....Dear God!" In the last Rally of 2005, Loeb came around a turn only to find a cow in the middle of the road, at 130 KPH on a gravel road and didn't miss a beat. Didn't freak him out at all. Props to you on that clip. I loved it.

Notice how the spectators put all thier faith in the drivers, being so close?

that's my new hobby, rallying

believe me guys, you better have very thick wallets and a banker that would let you rob the bank without calling the cops

Here's one where he actually hits a cow.

I'm still looking for the one I'm talking about.
