Only the first hour is rally. Thank goodness, I couldn't even listen to myself for 2.5 hours. *grin*

Grassroots rally. It's what I think about.

The second hour isnt to bad. No more S2000 in the ERC replacing it with R5. There doing away with N/A and replacing with 1.6 turbo! There also starting a Rwd class and giving it more tv air time.

WRC is banning all cars from getting split times. Penalties if they find teams informing the cars of splits.



First rally 2013
Rally car type AWD subaru
Total rallies as driver 6
Total rally cars built 2
Total rally cars caged 3
Total rally cars repaired from offs 4
Total years racing exp other then rally 19 yrs

Now that's actually interesting to me. I've always thought that was a crazy advantage that someone further down the pack would have. Can really fine tune your driving aggressiveness when you know where you have to push and when you can back off.

Actually treating the 2WD class as a legitimate class of its own and not just a step up to AWD will save rally.

We've been doing that for years.

I stopped counting at 38 classes for SCCA Otter Cross, and that didn't even include junior classes and ladies' classes.

One Class Per VIN will save rally!!!

Toyota announces WRC plans

Here is a link to Best Car magazine in Japan. You can see the cover of their next issue, which is due out on Monday. The headline says something like
"Toyota confirms WRC participation!!"

http://twitpic.com/2c1wcw

I will attempt to find a copy, tomorrow.
