Another "why the phokk didn't we know about this before?" sport

Race car driving in snow.



This looks even more exciting than k-mad driving to the train every morning. But instead of this, we get endless hours of @ss#oles playing cards.

Yeah. Rally racing kind of puts all other racing to shame. You actually turn the car in both directions, you drift, slide, power turn, drive on macadam, pea gravel, sand, snow and ice. I am fascinated by how the co-pilot can shout out turn distances and radii and the driver seems to take it all in.

It is far more interesting than Nascar which really involves drafting, which is an aerodynamic phenomenon not visible to the human eye. Why watch something you can't see?

If you haven't been watching Rally racing you have been missing out.

My question is: are there fiery crashes and drivers running around with their heads aflame? That would be my reason to watch.
