Cali you are not relying on statstic, you are relying on emotional words...
Patience and consider what I say...
There is a terrible amount of what I call "fan boi based exaggeration"..
Loeb was good...but when the gap after 3+ hours of SS ti,es is 5-15-30 seconds you go and do the statstics, the % difference and I think you will see that 0.3% difference between Loeb and Grönholm is not "CRUSHING!"
Crushing is what Happened to the American "rally God" Ben Klock when even after 4 years he lose 2-5 minutes to the real guys per SS. That is crushing. When after 4 yeats spending 4-5 million a year he gets his SS times beaten by 2 guys in Golfs and 1 in a 940 Volvo in the Swedish class Grupp H...
THAT is crushing
...3% time difference is beating, 0,3% is enough but!!
And everybody talks this absurd way except...except..
serious drivers.
Now come on do some work with the calculator, stop sh!t-talkingLast edited by janvanvurpa; 30th January 2018 at 08:46.

You will be surprised, but yes, they heard. And they didnt liked it (not all of them of course) and were fighting against it. Thats one of the reasons why this category was killed by FIA...
