Re: turn left, turn left, turn left... zzzzzzzzzzzzz....
+gt 1.
did you ever see any old 'class b' rally videos? the restrictions were (i think): 500 production models and a stock grill (or something ridicilus like that). the Audi quattros DOMINATED it, one driver said that they'd go from 160 to 200 ON DIRT, like a production car goes from 20 to 30. my friend had a movie abouyt it- it was FAST. i'll look for a link.

here you go:
brief history
and some more... "The cars sometimes had 600+ Bhp engines and a weight below the ton mark." -take a look at the audi. heh heh... that's far lighter than a modern WRC car and twice as powerful.

Re: The Greatest Spectacle In Racing...

My only beef with Nascar is that I can watch the first 20 laps, then sleep until the last 10 and not miss anything too relevant.
