... it was Discovery Science channel on Dish ... yup, caught it! I knew
that the urq was coming ... it was quite apparent to someone who is familiar
with the car from the teaser shots of the rear quarter of a car taking off
...
They also had a sound bite from Roger Galvin ...
I agree, a show like this can only help values ... it was good to see
comments from Jean <Lindamood> ... don't remember her new name ...
I don't see the show listed at all in the Discovery Store, but the show is
slated to air three times on 11/25 (7AM, 12PM & 3PM EST)

Happy Thanksgiving to the urq fans in the USA ... and elsewhere too, even
though you may not be celebrating Thanksgiving ...
PS ... no big deal, but the Ford was an RS200 ... beautiful car IMO, there
was one at the historic races at Laguna Seca many years back. The car was
owned by someone who also owned an urq.

Did anybody catch the 8 PM "Ultimate Cars" segment on the discovery Channel
on Wednesday night about the top five road rally cars???
#5: Ford RS 2000 (I believe that was the designation)
#4: Mitsubishi Evo
#3: Subaru Impreza
#2: Lancia Stratos
#1: The best road rally car was---you guessed it--our (mostly) beloved Audi
quattro (1st to use AWD, 1st to use turbo motor, 1st to use a woman
driver --in fact a women's team in FIA rally--nice shot of the car, and of
Michele, and some words from John Buffum
We gotta track this video down and get DVDs for our records--definiely added
$$$ to sale price. It's not a great serious video, a bit tacky, but some
nice footage, and to see our favorite car classed as number 1 road rally
car, very sweet.
