Don't forget that Snijers drove GpB cars - everything will feel underpowered and too much grip after those.

The question though is which cars are the most fun to drive and fun to watch ? Rovanpera going to Ireland to drive an old RWD Toyota Starlet answers that one.

That was a reply to this, not to Snijers.

visually i tend to agree, "sliding cars" is more fun to watch, but im not the biiiiggest fan of these historic cars cuz they 'look slow'. some of them are incredibly beautiful tho, cannot deny that!

Rovanperä driving 4WD car all year is an answer to what?

Come on, this is a useless argument. Rallying is a sport. It's about being fast. It's not a driftshow.

Hmmm not much fan of any of them except Kollus' one. Compared to WRC Photo of the Year they all seem meh and uncreative. There is bunch of better pics I've seen from ERC

Yes, I would also vote for Kollus' photo. Good idea with this viewing tower and a good shot. From the jump shots I like Linnamäe's photo the most.
