TWO RISING STARS OF JAPANESE RALLYING ARE SET TO MAKE THEIR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP DEBUTS AT NEXT MONTH'S LOTOS 72ND RALLY POLAND AS PART OF A YOUNG DRIVER DEVELOPMENT SCHEME BACKED BY TOYOTA.

Amazing! cool! I think scientists should study this amazing phenomenon......See I was under the grossly erroneous impression that driving a rally car or rally-cross car required a certain rather hard to attain skills-set, and some evidence that the person getting Press Releases writyten had aquired those skills...and stupid me thought---due to my limited experience in motorsport----that you get the skills and the experience and prove it in years of increasingly "higher level" competition..

Nope..120 million people and the guys best suited is amazingly the son of some ex-PWRC cheery picker.

I never knew driving skill and especially experience was transmitted purely thru genetic means but once again we see there's nobody better, more deserving, shows more potential. than...some washed up guy's son.


I wonder if these people choosing these little children who look so obviously immature, who don't even need to shave yet, so innocent---ever wondered if, when they decide to give a ride---and make big world-wide press release about it---

if they realise how the have ruined the credibility of the various race series by proving that those you are watching
you are watching because not who they are, but who daddy was (and how unfulfilled his dreams were).--not what they've done or know..

Genetics is so amazing..
