What would you as long term guy around this sport like to see?
What's wrong with long onboards?! Still remember Latvala's maybe 10 minutes long onboard from Jordan. I don't like JML but enjoyed the ride.
Does anyone have the full onboard for the rally argentina el-condor(ss4?) with JML? I'd love to see the tarmac section of it again but can only find the cut-down version!
You can go on youtube/wrc and put request for that onboard.
I can look at maps on Google maps if I just want to see a narrow view of a road.Quote:

In car I see s strip of road and thats it, or even worse medium close ups of drivers' impassive face.
I don't have some vaguely homo-erotic longing to see these guys faces, they're just guys, I want to see what their decisions RESULT in what the CAR does.
So no dirt flying, no car action, I just cannot get excited.......it's probably lack of imagination on my part since I spent from 1967 to 1997 on dirt and gravel.
Here, change the car---maybe---and this is what I want to see:http://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/f...e=heinakuu.jpg
not a little section of road from between the narrow strip of windsceen.
Still we know nothing about how WRC Rally will look and how this will evolve into the future.
Currently I see for 2012 not much improvement.
Will SWRC look better than those few wrc cars with a pair of the same drivers?
I think the FIA would have done better to use the S2000 as WRC car for some years!
More brands and participants would be intrested to be in wrc in my opinion.
The two teams who did not want this after the 2009 season are now thinking differently because economic problems or leave the WRC within two years.
I see several post in this thread that actually do not belong here.
To read som news we have anyway the NEWS THREAD.
I thought In order to watch video, we have other threads to see that on this Forum! ;)

Can’t disagree – the FiA should have waited until 2015 for the new regs. Until then have S2000 as the top class; look at the Manufacturers of these cars; Peugeot, Ford, Skoda, Proton, Fiat-Abarth....and there are more. Unfortnately, Ford & Citroen got their way, rather than the WRC’s long term growth. And now look were we are; only 2 extra Manufacturers have signed up.
Ford still haven’t committed, Mini need more budget, NorthOne are having ‘troubles’ – it’s not looking great, is it?
Personally, I’d downsize for a year or two – make it a 10 round series, using the best events that show the sport in it’s best light, and see were that takes us. This isn’t F1 – In how many countries is Rallying a Top5 sport?? A handful, if that.
