I remember watching one of the events a while back of the Irish road racing series.

It was absolutley bucketing down with rain and they were still going flat out. One dude excelled in it though and had a lead of something like 30 seconds ahead of second place and didn't let up through the whole race. Some of the best racing that I've seen.

Big balls of steel.

*I don't know anything about racing*

Is the Isle of Man circuit harder to memorize than the Nürburgring? I heard Nürburgring takes months to learn, but Isle of Man is more than twice as long.

Seeing as the track is about half as wide and your average speed is about 160mph? I would say its roughly 3 hundred billion times harder to learn.

Edit: McGuiness runs about 130mph average.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Man_TT pretty good read on the history.

I really wish that the WRC would revert back to rear wheel drive.

Much more fun to watch.

Also gently caress your 600hp turbo drift machines, have a 2L NA with what 250hp at the most throwing them around corners for km on end instead of a nice safe racetrack.

Tiny fire that really doesn't even belong on youtube, though I do find it amusing that a (relatively) late model Cadillac catches on fire idling. But it takes a turn for the odd about 2 minutes in.

There's a few in here.
It's a rally shell. Something like £30k in the shell alone and then same again in the suspension. Uses a vauxhall engine out of an old touring car. Properly rapid little thing.

I've seen that seems to be a bit of a trend nowadays. Swapping Vaxhaull twin-cams into them. I guess the Zetec/Cossie just gets expensive quickly, makes sense.

You don't happen to have this one at a desktop size at all? http://www.flickr.com/photos/iandgratton/5669055953/sizes/l/in/set-72157626481779689/

Features a huge winged RS200 piloted by a 60-year old and a 650hp Sport Quattro S1

I love how the Vaxhaull Astra is a FWD car and still keeping up with the Quattro.

The guy probably would have won too if it weren't for the overheat.

Does it seem like the audio doesn't match up to the speed of the car? Looks amazing, trying to imitate Climb Dance, but in places it just seems like they are just puttering up the straights and not even pushing the car.

Yes there is a fixed speed camera and its a 60kmh zone. No you don't have to slow down to 30km an hour just to be sure you don't get caught, driving through it at 60 is perfectly fine.

I love how they just turn off the lights at the end when they realise there's nothing that can be done.

By the time they turn around to try and chase them, they would be long gone.
