QFT, but more generally:
Doing, not whining, will save rally.

Why doesn't someone should be replaced with 'how do we.'

i did, then got told after i stated over a year ago i was building a crx not to build a crx, that stuffs killing rally, not getting responses from people when trying to make the steps as well, luckily a fella from aussie land scored me some proflex dampners, waitng not being my strong point. i will however build a gen2 integra chassis because shoehorning stuff into a crx doesn't translate well to quick service stops if stuffs break.

more rally anarchy less rally argument will save rally.

it was interesting wasting my time here, although i learned alotta good shite.

see you on stage canada in 2015 crx or integra.

Rally America is not looking for a buyer. I don't now who started the rumor but its not accurate. Heck, I'm just starting to know you folks and I believe together we will bring Rally to the forefront of Motor Sports in America. If I didn't believe that I wouldn't keep investing in its future and I wouldn't continue to ask our sponsors to keep investing in our growth. We have the best sponsors, strong competitors and a compelling benefit to those host communities we race in. I also know we have to make many changes to accomplish our goals. Some of these will be difficult and unpleasant but others will deliver immediate positive results for the sport and the Rally America National Championship. Continued expansion into media development and distribution is critical to the overall effort. We have said that from our first season until now, we all benefit from being seen in the media by our current fans and those racing enthusiast who have not been exposed to rally yet. We are working hard to deliver and our team feels strongly that we have learned a great deal from our first season of filming for TV. Our organizers are committed to our vision and they have worked together to complete a schedule for 2015 and they announced it with RA way ahead of schedule. Our communications are getting stronger with every season and our combined resources will continue to be focused on growing awareness of the sport. As always we can't do it without our army of volunteers that help to support all of us by bringing efficient operations and top notch safety to the fans and competitors. Thank you to all of you and especially those that are on the organizing bodies that begin planning for the next year as soon as the current event has completed. I have a lot more to say and I will but this morning I simply wanted to touch base and let you know, full steam ahead lets finish 2014 strong, enjoy the holidays and look forward to 2015. Bill Sr.

That works for me. Parts are vague but telling us why the tv deal went wrong has to be a hard paragragh to write! Wish we new more but at least he said he will tell us more. Guess thats part of what you expect by buying your license.

Apparently us good for nothing Scots aspiring to become an independent nation and rid ourselves of the morally bankrupt twats down south has caused the pound to drop in value....

Meaning it could soon become financially viable for North American continent rallyists to travel over to the Un-United Kingdom and compete in the many rally events we have here.
There will be a choice to drink warm beer (admittedly even from a Scot it's still better than the pisswater you guys have) and eat eels at English events. Or tuck in to some Haggis and real beer and whisky whilst attending the events in the superior north wilds of Scotland. smileys with beer

Political and financial meltdown might just save rally! thumbs up
