I am a fawkin Genius!

You're on to something. I'm going to get to work on my WRC, GRC, ERC, CRS, NRS, RA, CARS, and SCORE disappointment announcements.

Once sponsors see how many series I don't have time to compete in, they will realize how in demand I truly am and will be bringing dumptruck loads of cash to my house.

You guys are being to hard on him. He has obligations to those that crowdfund his racing. I mean he has Motorsports figure skating to attend to afterall.

I'm a step behind. Seems the Subaru crowd is already in on the dissa-nouncement.

We are very disappointed to announce that we won't be participating at the 2014 Rally America championship to defend our title. Rally and Subaru is our first love but we have to take a break and maybe different directions.

As an English major, will you be racing the 2014 RA series?

Did I write that properly?

As an English major, no, I will not.

I have no idea if it said what you meant, but it was grammatical.

The last time I laughed at that kind of joking, I fell off my pet thesaurus.

This dissa-nouncement thing has legs.

Followup from the Blue Subaru, and after announcing they won't compete, people knocked down their door with a dumptruck full of cash...and now they're in.

There seems to be lots o drama with the entry list this year. Only 2 less national teams then last year. A bunch more regional teams. New faces. Only 7 unpaid entries and Im 1 of them still yet to pay. Kind of a missed the first 10 so wait till last minute.

Team Oneil will likely be bringing out a new fiesta st R2 with a stronger trans and a turbo.

Just seen on FB that Higgins will be in an all new 2015 STI hatch starting at snodrift.

The loss of Block at a rally he doesnt like is the worst of it all. AND there is still a chance we may see Pastrana in Higgins old car!

Crazy to see all the hate in a sport we all have grown to love!

All the hate? I've only seen disappointment? It might be that I'm just bad at the internet.

Disapointment is a better word. Not hate disapointment!

Its crazy to see all the people disapointed in a sport we all have grown to love!

I still cant figure out why sponsors dont think there is a ROI in rally? I almost think it may be because every body in rally says there is no ROI. Doesnt take much google searching to find people saying US rally isnt good for sponsors. Most investors I would think would have some body do some research on the sport before dropping big cash. If all the research google produces says rally ROI sucks. Who will take the leap?

Even ESTD ended on a bad note making you feel like rally is to expensive to even test the waters. That movie should of ended on the up swing of the good things about rally.

To me it seems more and more people are discovering rally in the US and at least think its interesting. Not competing but at least following there locals.

Im not a numbers guy but I believe the total followers who buy products because of rally is as good or better then other sports that get big sponsors.

Okay I get it. After typing all this barly readable drival I am disapointed to!

The mental-visual to this statement made for a genuine "LOL" on my part.

And I do not "LOL" easily.

No, not easily at all....
