The World Rally Championship kicks off today in Monte Carlo, or was supposed to. Spectators apparently don't have the intelligence to STAY OFF OF THE COURSE so shakedowns were cancelled. But, it will get going sooner or later. I completely look forward to it getting on a roll. I only wish it were televised on Speed Channel or something. Until that day happens, I will have to just use WRC LIVE and get up the minute info and standings.

Yeah, it's pretty damn annoying that no one is carrying the races on television over here.

Did they stop showing it now? I think it was on last year here on the speed channel. I LOVE THAT STUFF! I would love to be a driver in the event but holy crap would I lose, or roll LOL. And since when did people get off the track? It seems they like to treat the rally cars as bulls and wait till the last split second to jump out of the way, those observers are nuts!
2001 Ironman Daily Driver... 3.5" suspension lift (OME912 springs and 1" spring spacer), ball joint flip, 1.5" front diff. drop, 33"x12.5 TrXus MT, 16x10 Eagle Alloy rims, Interceptor, PV muffler, K&N air filter, Alpine Supercharger, Bilstein shocks, and some trimming.
2000 Ironman Project LS-1 VX... very slow progress but someday....... ohhhhh someday......

Speed Channel isn't carrying WRC this year. They had to make way for more sprint car and NASCAR races, as well as pointless tuning shows.

Speed, the NASCAR Channel, that is their logo isn't it!
Haven't gotten my annual dose of the Aussie V8 supercar series either, the DTM's and BTCC has been entertaining and only 58 days, 6 hours and some minutes till the F1 season kicks off.

Well, with no TV coverage, about as close as we get out here is the Pike's Peak Hill Climb. Better than a kick in the plums...
Go Team Roo!!!!!!!!!!!
