:rotflmao: Why do people continue with this? You can judge exactly how quick a car will be but it can give quite a good idea.

I'm happy to wait till the end of next year and we'll see who's right :laugh:

Yeah :-) That is great man!
I heard also that the split times page will be replaced with split point evaluation marks page.There will be one official in each split point and they are evaluating the speed of the car and giving marks. We can see their marks on the screen we formerly knew as a split-times screen. At the end of the stage the marks will be averaged and those averages will be compared with video evaluations :-P

EDIT: I hope FIA does not read this comment... who knows..

Sorry I should clarify this.

Some rumours say that FIA has been watching our forum quite closely for the last couple of years and few of our fellow forum members have been spotted as a "raw talent". No names have been published yet, but N.O.T. has a strong campaign going on here so he is my favourite for the available spot in WRC speed measuring board.

Cali, does he have a five year plan?

1st year looking at crayon drawings of rally cars to judge speed
2nd year looking at water colour fine art (might be problem with watersplashes)
3rd year watching youtube clips
...
9th year [well, we all know how these plans take longer than expected]

Or just take the Ford fan's route

1st year. This is our year, we're going to win.
2nd year. That damn Loeb, if he was driving for us we'd win.
3rd year. Don't be mean to Mathew Wilson! If Malcolm was your dad you'd do it too!
4th year. Matt's testing the new car! It's going to be a cracker.
5th year. Damnit, if Sebastien Ogier was driving for us we'd win
....
10th year Now that Mathew has taken over M-Sport we're SURE to win now!!!!

If Malcom's boys win this year it'll be a miracle.
