GG is nowhere near these guys. Just my opinion, but hope I am wrong.

You may be right, but I hope not...it’s always good to see someone new come in and do something impressive. I like Greensmith, I doubt if he is the next big thing, but let’s see how he goes...and not write him off after 1 outing if it doesn’t work out. We have a few young guys to look forward to seeing in a WRC car over the next few years, Huttunen, Rovanpera, Solberg and maybe others...let’s hope 1 or 2 of them really take the fight to the establishment.
