I follow the WRC quite religiously. I'll be posting entertaining WRC related videos/images in here.

1000000000 times better than nascar or f1. still kinda boring unless it's on top gear.

Was it TSN or Speed that was showing the events ~midnight Sunday a couple years ago? Best racing around.

inbeforenascar, oh wait. But srsly, wrc is still good, they introduced some weird rules a few years back and I believe 1 or 2 of the manufacturers were at least threatening to pull out cause it was getting stupid expensive, that's kinda when i stopped watching it.

Now world super bikes, that's where it's at, ducati, honda, ktm, bmw, kawasaki, suzuki, and aprilla. It's a really good series, and gets decent coverage on speed, weird hours, but at least it's still on.

Back on topic, stupid linkz not working, but http://www.stormloader.com/groupb/index.html, group b is the best no questions asked. Group B (rallying) and Group C (road racing) were the best evar no questions axed.

WRC is good, I used to watch it a ton but now just once in a while due to crappy coverage in NA. I loved Subaru back in the Makinen/Solberg days.

World superbikes, MotoGP, F1 are my three main racing favs. I do watch Indycar once in a while but miss the Champ car of the 90's/early 2000's.
I used to watch AMA superbike too, but that series has gone to crap this year. It's laughable how stupid it is. One example, they allowed 1125cc Buells (Harley owned) compete against the japanese 600cc bikes. PArt of this is because Buell's are v-twins vs inline4's, but the Ducati's are v-twins and only allowed 800cc. Blatent american favouratism. Now they are also letting in a race only version of the 1125cc bike, when the rules very clearly state only production based bikes that anyone can buy in a dealership are allowed.

Sorry for going off topic, had to vent.
