Ok maybe they are not that into the tecnical side of it but if the could get more expert commentatory with Robert Reid ore some one else, Robbie Head when he's not doing the BRC maybe? Do anyone know what the radio crew do for a living don't think they make money on this do they?

It's true they might lack a bit of knowledge, but overall i think it's nice. I like Colin, and i wouldn't wanna miss the end of stage interviews and the chat. No doubt it could be better, but hey, it's free and way better than just watching splits.

I don't see the problem with rally radio Mostly they know what they're talking about and get the latest news pretty quickly. Sure, most of the time I can tell what's happening on the stages by looking at the splits (whenever they work) and they take a while to get it, but on the whole I think it's a great service.
If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

I like Collin's irrational comments about passing barges, the weather, time control official and the colour of their pens.
If there was live coverage on tv, I would still want to hear the crazy Scot carry on.Happiness is using the side windows more than the windscreen
