[WRC] News & rumours (part III)

[N.O.T]

Hehe "Stupid is what stupid does"

I was thinking more in the lines of Group B, but I guess You think that Group B rallying is the lowpoint of the rallysport

There are three very important factors that suggests that lowering grip/friction is a good way to go:

1) Safety (lower cornering speeds)
2) Longevity (the tires and cars of today creates so much grip that they are very tough on the roads. This destruction of the roads, both in the WRC and in local rallies (we are of cource talking about gravel) translates in to it being more and more difficult to find roads to arrange rallies on, and more and more expensive to hire/rebuild the roads.)
3) Show (for obvious reasons)

So you want more power but lower cornering speeds.... that makes sense... why you want more power then ?

Longenity of the roads is just a joke to use as an excuse... and again how exactly more power is going to add to that ?

And as for show you can visit local village road shows if you consider drifts "show".
