Mr. Bond… Your driving lessons are ready. 101 Cars, part 10

Lane Bailey - Friday, 21 November 2008 11:24

This is a two part post.  It first give me an excuse to showcase a car that I think it too cool…  The Subaru WRX STi.  All Wheel Drive, turbo charged power, a great rallying history, plenty of mods available.

It also allows me to talk about rally drivers…  These guys have skills.  In the US, they run roads without a preview.  They have a navigator and a details set of instructions…  In Europe (and anywhere else the WRC is run), the drivers get to pre-run the course with the navigator, but not in a race vehicle.  What it comes down to is that rally drivers have to drive in three dimension (they fley, too) on roads that are constantly changing (gravel, dirt, and narrow twisty roads with debris) in whatever weather happens.  These guys have skills.

Here is an example.

And here is another example…
