[s-cars] NAC-World Rally Championship Withdrawl

[manuelsanchez at starpower.net]

Liability, sure. Ther is the Rally of Mexico in March, a bit closer than Dubai. Hmmm we had a Dubai client that I suppose I could hand deliver the package to next time....

I'd settle for watching it on the tube somewhere.

How's that Evo running anyway?  The PCC Chapter is having a school at VIR in April that I'm going to, any chance you'd bring that thing down south? That may be the closest I get to my Rally fix.

It's been a whole year since NASCAR TV (I mean Speed TV) dropped WRC, and I thought a few months ago I read that someone was going to pick-up WRC events this year. I think the '07 WRC is in it's 2nd or 3rd event already and I have not seen any indication of a telecast anywhere.  Has anyone on-list seen a '07 event broadcast? If so where -- pray tell.

The rear yard is a prefectly ice glazed surface, in fact, I have still been unable to break through the layers of ice when walking across it with my own weight plus 3 shovels, a pick and a baby sledge which if used to try to free some of the cars on the street.  I pulled out the 2 RC cars we have, Petter Soldberg Subaru and Sebastion Loeb Citroen and had a backyard ice rally. Tons of fun with the boys and wiping out into the trash cans due to carrying too much speed in the turn only required a little racing tape to fix the body work.
