Rallying in Korea?
I have a friend over in Korea at the moment who was asking about rallying recently, and it got me wondering if there are any rallies over there. Does anybody know?
I've searched on google, but all I can find is that there will be a F1 race starting in 2010.If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

AFAIK,
What they call rally, most would call rallysprint.
The cars compete on closed courses, no public roads are used.
I know this much because one car, an A7 Hyundai Coupe, came to Rally Hokkaido in 2002.
It was in Castrol colours and its entry was supported by Hyundai and one of the two Korean ASN's. Anyway, there was a lot of drama in bringing it here to run as first it had to be registered for the road in Korea! It seemed well-built but was not competitive and suffered electrical problems.
I later mentioned its existence to David Whitehead who acknowledged that MSD had supplied parts and/or technical support to the team.
The ASN's name is KMSA. Perhaps a google will yield more details of their 'rallies'."Racing is life. Anything before or after is just waiting." Steve McQueen

Thinking a little outside the box, there is a round of the Chinese Rally Championship around Chang Bai Shan close to the North Korean border. There are flights to Changchun from Seoul & maybe accessible to Korean fans.

Endearing terms
Bernie was invited to his friend's home for dinner. Morris, the host, preceded every request to his wife by endearing terms, calling her Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart, etc. Bernie looked at Morris and remarked, "That is really nice, that after all these years that you have been married, and you keep calling your wife those pet names." Morris hung his head and whispered," To tell the truth, I forgot her name three years ago."----------------------------------Looking to buy wow gold? Do you look for cheap wow gold?
