>Dirtfish trying to ride the Taka hype already talks about him being a title contender (LOL)I love Taka and Dirtfish but DAMN this is next level dickriding if it was not an article written just to generate clicks from nips zoinked from huffing hopium
>>153986662Badass clip. Badass thread
>>153986263Holy shit I’m hyped for Croatia! Cars are meant to fly through the sky
>>153987004count me in
slightly pissed Japan was moved to Mayand speaking of that, it's going to be Paddon there again yes?
>mfw we have our own bread nowbest thing we made, this is cool
>>153990147kek
>>153990338travel wise it would make sense, but IIRC Sordo did Japan a few times already so he has fresher notes and experience there
>>153986662he did it in 2023 and had the fire in 2022. I guess maybe it will depend on whether Sordo wants to do it or not like at Monte where neither Dani nor EP wanted to sit in the car so hyundai was left with paddonThe next rally with Lappi will be Estonia afaik
>>153992165i still pray ott is doing his yearly rally in estonia in the yaris and absolutely mogs every other toyota driver
>>153992137>>153992165I was thinking that Sordo would do Canarias and Portugal plus maybe one of the rounds in South America. still not sure about Acropolis, I think it's going to be Sordo there too since he last competed in 2024?sucks a bit because I was looking to get an autograph from Lappi and Enni but I can make peace with it as long as it's not Paddon
>>153992188Lappi will definitely do Estonia and Finland, and he won't do any other flyaway rally as far as I know, but ofc he was in Kenya so the flyaway bit already got broken
im so mad that I want to attend rally croatia, its in our fucking neighbour, and life throws sg every year so I can't.I really hope next year I can get there
>>153991215That's new.../Indycar/ does it, so why not ? Not sure if will last, though.Still love motor/sp/ort, it's my (our?) home.
>>153993119for some reason the board slowed a bit as a whole so it can live, and soon ERC will also start , ERX as well, and the local rally scenes so there will be definitely habbenings. it's the offseason where it possibly will die
Daniel Elena is getting involved in the politics side of motorsport according to his recent Facebook posts. https://sports.auto-moto.com/wrc/france-la-ffsa-en-pleine-crise-daniel-elena-pousse-un-coup-de-gueule-contre-le-sport-auto-et-pense-a-se-presenter-a-la-presidence-30538
>>153993606>for some reason the board slowed a bit as a whole so it can liveWith the CL coming back next week, it will need a miracle to stay alive.Also>ERXThis thing still exists ?Also also, nobody saw that Loeb won in Portugal in W2RC, last week-end. Sad.>>153998345And he's right. FFSA has been a disaster since the last 2000's
>>153993606there’s a regional rally this weekend in Arizona. There should be some race footage on YouTube from a few of the teams. https://sneakattackrally.com/ARACombinerThing/entryList.html>Prescott Rally in car from one team running a Honda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYLR3pq23Xw
Rally du Touquet, this week-end>Bonato vs LefebvreOnce again.
I thought it was weird how the rally folks disappeared from the thread all of a sudden.>>153999309I'm team Lefebvre all the way.
Markko Märtin btw
>>154000199noice>>154000024nice>>153998468w2rc is another 1 race championship sadly
>>154000232>w2rc is another 1 race championship sadlyYup, Dakar or Don't care...
>>153998345https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xa3ahoaHere's the interview from yesterday (in french... ...And it's dailymotion, so no translate. Great...)Basically, he's saying nothing. He's a great guy but definitely not fit for that role (yet)
>>154001333>he’s a great guy >but he’s not ready >yet>maybe No matter the language dragging your fellow man is universally felt lmao
>>153999309Beautiful scheme.>>154000024Nice >>154000199Badass. Black and gold never gets old
seeing a Martini livery on a Porsche feels refreshing somehowI have always liked the non-Martini 037's better desu
> I'm working on it trust met. Malcolm
>>154002029the alitalia 037 and the black gold (totip maybe?) are kino
>>153999729Baseado
me looking at discounted 1:18 wrc die casts
>>154002040tasty word salad, but I think I got food poisoning from it.
>>154002602She thinks “can you afford me”
Delecour goes up against Latvala in EHRC in a 306 Maxiwhat a time to be alive lol
>>154006019Holy shit, it's real
>>153986662sr2 is so fun, the 10 year mode in the home port is alright, a lot more fun when you get the classic cars
>>154007099sr2 what?
>>154007259sega rally 2. it's ok, SR is like the 2nd most common acronym in gaming only behind AC
>>154007259ah sega rally2 im a retard
I can never watch live, but I always watch every stage.
>>154013145not even the sudaca wrc rounds?
>read or watch something that piques my interest i for a specific season or crew on a forum>remember that I will have to rely mainly on written race reports than anything else, especially if it's a season before the 2000s>lose all motivation to engage with the sport as a whole until the next eventthis must stop
habbening
>>154016011mmmm and potentially a rally in the US next year
>>154017288Beautiful
>>154016011yeah it's defo replacing us, we're about to enter an economic crisis thanks to the commies from the last government, and the chuds from the current one not exactly helping either, any funds that went into that will be slashed

>>154024791What a piece of shit.
>>154018467oh shit:(
>>154027166Toni
>>154024615Silver looks so good >>154024791TOTAL>>154029653The car feels like the mid 2000s and I love it
was CER the least memorable event last year?

>>154031598same sport, but american rallies have a bit of a Galapagos syndrome about them
>>154034552Worst example were the official factory Toyotas being a group of Toyota RAV4s.
>>154031598Wow, a Focus. Cool
>>154029653The 307 is such a beautiful rally carAnd I really liked the astra livery
>>154030442well it was memorable because Kalle got really into the head of Ogier and it seemed if he does not get the puncture he would have drive off the road sooner or later anyways
>>154031598one of the few good things about our hyperconnected world that its easier than ever for grass roots or less mainstream championships to have some kind of broadcast
>>154034572rare
>>154002029
>>154034878>>154034572there was a privately homologated Group A KIA Sportage around 93-94 used in the greek rally championship https://historicdb.fia.com/car/kia-sportageBut there very little info about it on the english side of internet
>>154024615Maybe it's because I was a kid then, but I love the early World Rally Cars, especially the 206 and Mk.1 Focus
>>154002029>>154034918Mean machines
>>154047695back then the only wrc I did not like was the bugeye, but I was a kid easily influenced by the media. Now I know better and don't listen to car journos
>>154045599I don't know anything about the car but one of the navigators was alongside "Leonidas" when he won a ERC round in 1988.there are two different license plates for the Sportage, I'm guessing they had to go through some hoops to standardize them or something.
BRAAAAP
BTWCouldnt the sound difference between Rally1 and Rally2(and therefore Rally1 2027) solved with a different exhaust?
>>154050409What a great shot and dare I say good looking Suzuki
>>154047695
>>154050409>>154054693
>>154056453actually sick.
Good morning rally fans
Serdi won a local rally :DDD
i watched this once and it was boring. i just sit at a meadow and a car goes past really fast. i prefer actual racing even though new f1 regs are cucked
>>154057548sadly it was literally sickunderunded and underdeveloped only ran for 1 season then the market crash happened and suzuki pulled the plug
>>153987004Its a huge cope but to be fair when the contenders outside of Solberg are Evans and half schedule Seb then who the hell knows who will win the thing. And heck, maybe getting that first win shakes some of those choke genes off Taka and he completes more events without binning it from the podium.
>>154056411>>154056453>>154058568>>154059096Good afternoon to the men with taste
>>154059096based happy for the man
>>154059420yeah its either Evans or Solberg, there is no cope big enough to make hyundai a contender

Where is Turk Anon?
>>154068319in the last few years he really disappeared and only posts a few ones on rally werkends

>>154071498The wheel work at the 10 minute mark. Video has me hyped up
>>154071498wow what a based video
>>154071972Must’ve been a great party back then
>>154077788BRB going to buy cigs this car twisted my arm
>>154071972I have always liked Occelli a bit better than Giraudet - both are cool but the latter's pace note delivery is not my cup of tea. the on-boards with Schwartz are especially painful to listen...do we know any details regarding their split?
GUUUUUUUYSis this the hypercar moment of wrc?
>>154082778or just a fucking april fools joke?
>>154082778very unlikely
>>154082790yes
>>154085093>>154084919pretty sad bc the car actually looks good and legit
>>154085217legit in a sense that it looks like something the rules would produce
>>154085217>>154085226that gave the economy a subtle boost with their April fools joke. Sick fucks
