Rally 'round the WRX
<The ones done for the WRC cost about $500,000 a piece!>
Did you see the Cyprus rally? One of those Subarus caught fire and TOTALLY burned up! (not Burns' car) Yes the ones they race over here seem to be very close to stock, if I understood the program correctly.
The thing that gets me...and it makes it hard to watch those rallys...is the SPECTATORS! One error entering a corner, and a car could wipe out 50 people.
I heard somewhere, that after a rally last year, one of the cars completed the stage just to find someone's FINGER caught in the rear spoiler......
....I guess everything is digital now.  Don
