The next thing that will save rally is a new political movement!
 Grassroots rally. It's what I think about. |

BattleCross! Internext wootz!
Myself, I'll stick to things which actually involve racing on a closed road in the woods.

Anders , does it have to be in the woods? what about the desert? or the middle of a city/ town?
 
i think a mixed paved/dirt rally would be awesome, esp if it had some close streets stages ...

I keep thinking of mocking commercials/slogans for Block's new company, Hoonigan. "Why race again when you can hoon again?" "Hoonigan - Why race when you can pretend?" Things along that line... I actually was thinking a cool TV show would be something that shows youth with promise that you are much better off having a cool hobby and a rewarding job rather than trying to make a racing career only to fail and become depressed and give up. Kind of like a big brother program, but televised. I had this idea while sitting in a conference in Boston where I am sitting next to some of the worlds most well know biostatisticians and doctors from places like John Hopkins, National Jewish, and Harvard... Actually I started thinking about it while at the Foo Fighters at the Gardens last night. VIP passes and definitely observed that all the VIP people seemed to be the LEAST excited of the 20,000 people in the building. Also a recent post by a musician friend who commented, "you know you've been in the music industry for ten years when all your friends are bartenders" or something along that line recently. He builds guitars for a living now out of his garage. |

The rest of your post was too long to read...but there been several mockumentaries on the gymkhana series. Kyle Sarisin (sp?) did one a few years back and there was a Festiva one just a few weeks ago. Time for you to break out the 50 cameras you've got from your Max Attack filming! Have cars, will drive for corn fuel.

I consider the desert a forest of rocks.
The middle of a city/town? Targa Newfoundland style (where whoooosh! it just goes through the town) sure, super-special-sit-around-all-day-for-a-35-second-run... I'll pass.
