They're out and VW is starting with a Polo? This sport just died

Jason Brown Oct 16, 2012
Shelby, have you been to a NASCAR race and the pre-race events? If you have, then you will know it survives...

Oh great, Hyundai might dominate! Please dont let that happen.

William Downs Oct 16, 2012
Ford stopped backing the teams, the company that actually build the fiesta and races them are still gonna be racing for a couple years, fords just not supplying the money anymore

This is sad. Its because WRC isnt as popular as F1 and nascar. Personally id rather watch rally cars fly through the woods than a bunch of huge tubs go fast and turn left.

Whats weird is that little mirror. Its so far back

Jason Brower Oct 15, 2012
No, not really. The weight is on that tire, so any slide is going to wear that tire the most, especially if the driver is powering out of the corner.

Quinn Conner Oct 15, 2012
Smoking the outside tire? Weird.
