That's cool @mclaincausey - have you watched them start the race from the bottom? I'd imagine it would be an intense energy during a race session.
Good insight @NickD. What rally destinations did you visit?
-
@Bridger Almost all were mainland UK rallies - some of my family and family friends were competitors so I helped out as a mechanic basically - service crew in rally parlance. I did it on and off from the mid '90s until about 2012 or so.
Most events were gravel rather than tarmac, and the cars were Mk1 and Mk2 Escorts - the Mk2 was the ex Roger Clark '77 RAC rally winning car . I've been to the Isle of Man rally a few times, and a few events in Belgium.

Sounds awesome @NickD. I love the old Escorts, a couple of my friends had them and a neighbor restored one in Sydney in the 90s that must be worth a fortune now. Love that terrier / staffie bulldog look. A bit like the early 70s Alfas.

Are cricketers more skilled than rugby players than football players etc etc etc.....?
Exactly.
That said, IMO ice hockey has the most impressive assortment of requisite skills among the major team sports that I’m familiar with. Got to have incredibly fast reflexes and hands, be able to deliver and take massive hits, oh and you’re ice skating.

@Giles sounds like a hate crime

Not been yet but I’d love top and bottom (Shut up) and I bet there are some good switchbacks along the way.

Too funny.
But good to be open to options!

Yep, sometimes you just need to enjoy the ride
are we still talking about @mclaincausey's top and bottom?

@goosehd said in Motor Sport:
it’s not always the destination
It was for Pike, he was always looking to peak

@mclaincausey you know better
But maybe you were asking for it.

@goosehd you know I was. Any time I can take it blue you know I will
