What they call "rally" at the x games makes me sad. Hopefully the real rally competitions will get more press than that kind of abomination.

The funniest thing about that video is the description, apparently it's registered as a tractor (it's not uncommon to put a bed on a regular car and register it as a "work tractor", which means you can drive it at 15 instead of 18). That in turn means it has to be built to run at a maximum speed of 33 km/h.

EDIT: I never understood why the rallies are called 1000 lakes rally. From my experience it's 1000 bumps and hills rally

http://www.ymparisto.fi/default.asp?node=12335&lan=en posted:

There are 187 888 lakes in Finland. Lake is here defined as a body of standing water larger than 5 ares (500 m2). The number of lakes larger than 1 hectares (10 000 m2) is 56 000.

That's why. :)

I know it's the Veyron driver's fault, but if the idiot in the Corolla had gone forward after the car in front of them had gone, this accident would never have happened. Just saying.

How does your mind work if you own a truck, live in loving Colorado and don't have chains or proper winter tires?

I mean, it's bound to get cold and snowy there, right? Every other person here in Sweden have chains stashed in their car somewhere..

Subaru has released a promo video of their IoM TT lap (not the whole 19min thing though). The first 30sec is pretty wanky but stay with that. Highlight @2:15 for Ballaugh Bridge flat out. And that is one mean sounding Scooby.

I live in the town where this event is, worst loving weekend of the year.

I mean, a lot of the cars are really cool but god drat after 25 years of it I've had about enough. Made a thread about it last year, didn't even go watch any of the cars this year, even though I live in the city center.

Karting can be a crap shoot. When you're new at it, showing up and racing with just anyone is pretty easy. You're off line, they're off line. Everyone is spinning. No big deal. After a while it starts to look like this and you stop having fun.

Honestly, if you're the kind of person that brings 'racing' gloves to ride karts made for moms and kids, you deserve a bad time.

e: Not so much because you're a terrible person or anything, but mostly because you're in the wrong place.

It's 19 per 100,000 people in Russia, 12 in the US. If you look per 100,000 vehicles Russia is at 55 and the US at 15. But, I think the US has much higher cars per capita, sadly wikipedia didn't have stats for car accidents per mile driven for Russia.
