Why rally drivers are my heros :)
Found some footage I hadn't seen in a while and thought I'd share, enjoy.

The last part is the best. I thought he was losing control until I realize, a second later, that he was setting up for the hairpin. WRC is so full of great driving like these, and I don't understand why it's not that popular over here.

I love WRC. Those guys are the greatest. When I was in Wa, I almost bought a WRX specifically for rally. Had a friend who was going to teach me the ropes, he raced in the amature league (forget what it's called)..., then I transfered out here and fell in love with the 8... maybe I could have one of each. :D
Beautiful drift, can't believe the control they have. Plus the italian woman/co-driver sounds hot.

Ike....awesome video!! I couldn't agree more with you. WRC/Rally drivers are something special. IMO the best, most skilled drivers in the world. From dirt to snow!! I'm also very fond of F1 drivers. Both very different, but both amazing.
Thanks for sharing!!

They really are amazing drivers, I used to watch it when I was at school. It used to be on every Sunday night on speed channel, haven't looked in a while though. Its too bad there isn't much coverage over here because it really is amazing what those guys do.

Another vid of a factory rally driver (can't remember name) driving an EVO. pretty cool, you can see his footwork and it also shows the tach sometimes.

The window takes a while to load, but it's worth it!
