hello ... I'm in New Zealand ...

every year na-nonood ako ng WRC dito, and sa totoo lang ... mas-realistic ito kaysa sa F1 *bleh*

ok, dito ako pumupunta para ma alam ko kung saan ang next rally ... www.wrc.com

as for rules and regulations (as per request by someone :D)

simple ...
- cars should not weigh less than 1250KG dry
- 2L, 4cyl engines only
- all cars have a 32mm (or 35mm) restrictor to the turbo outlet (to regulate air flow kahit malaki ang turbo)
- the car shape or body must be a production car of at least 2500 units (even if they dont have 4wd in real life like the Citroen, Ford, Peogeot)
- all cars should have a Cat converter
- they all use control methanol for gas
- max of 300hp for all WRC cars (also for Group N and A cars)

and, if you want to make one for yourself (engine bay rebuild, electronic diffs, 6spd semi-auto gearbox, etc) it will cost at least 500,000 UK Pounds each :D

well ... kailangan na lang nila mag-pullout ... like Toyota hahaha :D SUBARU FOREVER!!! :freak:

kulelat na sila ever since lumabas yung Evo6 eh, bumigat ng bumigat ang kotse nila or hindi na maganda ang handling kaya mabagal

Skoda, dapat ang pagmasdan ninyo (by the way, Rally Finland this weekend!!!) coz sa tingin ko mangunguna ito after like 1-2 yrs, VW ang may hawak sa Skoda kaya maraming datung

Oo nga...masmasarap manood nyan kaysa sa F1..hindi nakakabore!! masmaaksyon pa..

MIchael Schumacher actually rode with Petter Solberg of subaru last year.

Pag baba nya sa oto he was jumping up and down. Hehe, he even said:

"THESE GUYS ARE EVEN CRAZIER THAN US"

wala raw ka safety safety, etc.

iba naman ang type ng pagdadrive kasi eh.
momentum at inertia ang rally eh ang f1 grip at horsepower.

para kang walang control kapag nasa gravel na.
mas nakakatakot kapag nasa snow.

the track also makes it more scarier. In a f1 circuit, if you go off track youll find yourself either in the gravel or go straight to the tire barriers.

In WRC WALA. either you hit a rock, tree, snow bank, spectators, other rally cars na nag stall, etc.. . Nakakatakot talaga. Nakita nyo ung car ni markko martin sa argentina? running at 174kph on a slight uphill. bumanga yung rear tire sa rock and the car flipped.

Yep, the driving makes it more dangerous. Drift driving requires delicate control and proper technique. Konting mali lang game over.

According to petter solberg theyre physical training is much tougher than what f1 drivers undergo.

yeah actually totoo yan. last time na nag wrc rito sa NZ ang gagaling nang mga driver.. typical na back road ang mga dinadaanan. miski sanay na ako sa ganong kalye nakakatakot parin kapag mabilis.
pero masaya..
