    Rally Cars

    Any Rally racing fans? Im not a huge fan but i think the X Games are going to be cool. Should be cool because theres going to be other athletes driving the cars. Travis Pastrana is a big racer now days, Davie mirra is also. Should be good stuff

    I personally don't get rally racing. Though I am partial to some rallying
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    You've not understood my post I'm saying don't call it "rally racing"

    A rally is an event. You can't race rallies.
    Rallying is the correct term to describe the sport.
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    I think having bigger name athletes in the event really helps out. Seeing Travis Pastrana in it makes me want to watch a little more. We know how crazy he is on a bike.

    Actually the cars have become so good there is less action.
    The cars are so expensive that even factories can only afford to run a couple and most of the drivers are "buying" the seat and so there's less action from that as well.

    Want to see some kick ass action?
    Search F-cup or Group F or look up GruppH in Sweden, theres action in cars humans can afford and which are quite quick and there's 20-50 or more in your class.
    makes for LOTS of trying, and that's good for action.
