It looks crazier than it is I think. The bridges of El Condor are not wider, they just don't look so bad :)
Grab a beer folk, pull up a bar stool, it's time to begin the silly season discussions.
Did you hear the one about the Aussie journo who reckons an Irishman could replace a Welshman in a team from near the Scotland England border in 2016.

Just finished dinner and I'm lying in the sofa with my girlfriend and a fresh beer, and I'm watching this video as well.
Can't share my gf but the video yes.
Enjoy it. Cheers. :)

Anyone know some more details about how contracts between business men and drivers are made in the past. How payback will be done? Morgage or just interest rates?
If you´re not a lawyer it is not easy making up such document to be 100% coverage of a deal, if you get what I mean.

What car are you planning on using Ray?Quote:

Followed by the best of all a 1974 911 RS for the Historic Alpine Rally on gravel.
So a bit of a mixed bag, really looking forward to the Alpine Rally as we should be a top 10 car.

Ten boring seasons behind us... :P
I think they are less than ten... far less, the Gronholm-Loeb battles were nice and most of the championships were close, same goes with Hirvonen up to 2010. So its just 5 years, my prediction is we are going to have a few more boring ones unless Ogier forgets how to drive, latvala learns how to drive and the competitiors of VW learn to build proper rally cars all of which seem a bit hard to happen... but we will see.
Must say I agree with you. But also have to say that winner was known before the season had started except 2006 when citroen was kinda privateer... Anyway it started to be sleepy before every round...

Can anyone who was around at the time explain what the rules were regarding this?
Why was it allowed? and when was it outlawed?

Had a fun day playing in the new Subaru NR4 on Saturday. Awesome bit of kit. Ran as Zero car for State round here in NSW and actually beat Nathan Quinn on one stage, he finished 14th at Rally Australia.
The car is a bit of a weapon, built by Possum Bourne Motorsport in NZ, can buy from a Subaru dealer now, base model $38000 without cage and you can option up to $160000 which includes Reiger suspension. Will be interesting to see how they go against R5 cars.

AFAIK, the Organisers of WRC Rally Indonesia and some other APRC rounds applied to the FIA for special dispensation on wearing long-sleeve flame-proof overalls on the grounds of extreme heat inside the cars affecting the drivers. I haven't heard of it being permitted in recent years in APRC Rally of Malaysia, which is usually held in very hot and humid conditions.
$38,000 and only $160,000 more?Quote:

Any details of any technical junk-n-stuff? What's the cost of the gravel Reigers? Any idea of travel in those?
It is not permitted in FIA events.Quote:

Nah.. bar talk.. lets do it in proper way. I just had a prompt meeting in Athens for two days.. Is there any place where you can get proper beer in Athens? I was looking Acropolis and thinking about Acropolis rally and finally.. why noone offers good beer here? Or do you drink wine only there? I was so happy to get good beer today in the morning at 6:30 AM on Lufthansa flight :-) I wait suggestions for the next time, because there might be next time for me..
