There you have it, right from the ex-spurt! FAR superior... And he's done it all! I think he said he'd done "a few" road rallies when undergradute in England, so he knows all about why RWD is no good... I wonder why Paddon saddled himself with such a well know proven handicap? Does that mean he's even better-er-er than Klock cause he used an inferior car to win overall with? What's it all MEAN!!!!??

WOOOOWWWW faaar out maaaaan......Who would've thought that a top WRC driver in a car with similar power to weight ratio in fast flowing roads could be just as fast as mediocre drivers in newer machines?

If RWD rally were cool, Ken would still have his Escort. It's pretty obvious that if a global competitor like Ken prefers AWD, then for small-time US locals, RWD is not what we need. |

He does still have an Escort. It has just been reworked for other projects and is hidden away at the shop for now. -Brian |
