I'm #23 I think. I thought the CRX was an STS car? Do the V700's put it in CSP?

My Civic is in STS

The CRX is a 2 seater and cannot go into STS. it is either stock CSP, SM2, or the other prepared class.

I'm #25. Surprise! My only autocross for the month even though there are 3 scheduled. Sucks to miss it, but I'll be England for the RallyGB

aaahhhH! you lucky bastard! take a ton of pics please! petter solberg in the scooby is the one i'm rootin' for. only a point back from the championship going into the last race. it's gonna be crazy.

I'll be taking PLENTY of pictures.. I JUST bought a new digital camera (as in this morning), 4mp, 10x zoom, 128Meg card. I'm bringing the laptop so that I can upload the stuff daily.

I'm rooting for Sabastian Loeb. I told my wife at the beginning of the season he was going to be the next big one.

Next year should be an even better championship. The new Peugeot 307 will be out as well as Mitsubishi's EVO VIII.

My tickets for Sunday are on the last corner, of the last stage!

cool cool. i think it's great that 3 different drivers have a point difference and they're all from different manufacturers. Next year the manufacturer's championship should be even closer also as each team will be limited to 2 drivers/cars.

Loeb is the asphault guy right (as well as Panizzi)? if so, i think Solberg might have the advantage, but you can't out rule Sainz experience either.

it should be a great event.

Actually, you've got 4 people with serious chances at the championship. Currently in 1st is Sainz and Loeb, with 63 points, both of Citreon. Then you have Petter from Subaru with 62 and Richard Burns of ,Peugeot with 58. A first place nets 10 points, then 8,6,5,4,3,2,1. SO, if Richard places 1st, Loeb and Sainz, and Solberg can't place better then 5th.

Panizzi is definatly a tarmac specialist, but Loeb isn't. He really is a good driver all around. Sainz hasen't won an event this entire season and Solberg has only 2 events in the WRC, granted both of them this year.

I wouldn't count any of them out, that's for sure! I'll be wearing rooting for Loeb to win the championship. But I'd personally like to see McRae win because the last few seasons he's been plagued with shitty rides.

i forgot that Loeb was also Citreon. I get Loeb and Burns mixed up b/c they look alike. I don't think Burns deserves it, b/c when he's behind in a rally, he doesn't even try. that's just not a good spirit. Even though Sainz hasn't won a rally this year, he's up there b/c he's consistant....eventually consistantcy pays off. As far as Solberg only having 2 wins in his career, he has 3. He does have 2 this year, but he also won the GB Rallye last year Last year he also placed on the podium a few times. He's a real fast learner....just like me

It's going to be exciting. and btw, don't tell me the results when you get back, I want to see it on tv, which is i believe a week late.
