Nothing but racing...

So its now 11 o'clock at work and im sitting in my office this monday morning trying to figure out how in the hell to keep myself awake.. Why am i doing this you may ask?? well its because i just came of one of the craziest weekends ever and id thought id share it with you... Saturday was the all important STPR rally in wellsboro. Left my house a little after 6am, got to the meeting spot at 7 and went to the rally. After watching the best rally racing i've ever seen, it was time to call it a nite. I returned home about 11 o'clock. I then cleaned up (becaue i got a mudd shower at colton point) and jumped in bed by 12. I then proceeded to get up a 1:45 am so that i could leave by 2 to catch a 4:30 morning bus to Dover, DE for Bank of America 400 nascar race. It was a 4 hour bus ride so needless to say i fell asleep on off for no longer then an 1/2 hr at time. I then spent all day at dover, walked around to the different stands, picked up free stuff, then watched the race (even fell asleep through it for 47 laps :lol: ). We then left Dover around 8 o'clock after an incident that involved a wasted guy, the wrong bus, a fight, and police. I finally arrived at home a 1 a.m. this morning. Got back up 6 hrs later for work. Its been crazy, but i wouldnt have it any other way...
So after all of this (all my blabbering) i've definetly decided that i love rally racing and that nascar is still not intersting to me. (only reason i went was because it was for my bro's bday and it was free for me) Dont get me wrong, the cars were fast, the wrecks were cool and there were some action packed parts.... but i cant even express the the fun of watchin rally racing and how i pledge to do so every possible time that i can... enough blabbering from me for one day... i gotta go grab a redbull.......

I agree - NASCAR is a joke compared to rally. NASCAR is only episodically interesting, whereas rally keeps you glued. All it takes is to watch a few "Pou" compilation videos from the last few years of WRC and your are hooked on rallying.

so, the long waits between the passing rally cars makes you excited?

mmmmkay




(yes, i think rally>nascar)

[redlegacygt]

no the waits arent the greatest, but its made up for when they come flying around a corner at breakneck speeds, while flinging mud everywhere and looking like they have no control of the car at all (when the really do)and only being 10 -15 feet away from all the action.....

It depends on the course, you can have almost no waits on some rally courses (like the small Rally-X courses).


but I mean, c'mon, it's not like NASCAR isn't the SOS (same old *shit*) every time, and you can't hear yourself talk at those events, at least you can talk racing & cars @ rally events.

Yeah holmes, rally is amazing

as fun to drive as it is to watch (ive been obsessing over wrc this year)

ive been takin my leagcy to hell, and i kinda feel bad, but awd off road is amazing, i wish there were real rally courses (5km+) here in PA, or just rally in general in the US
