Mind you, its such a half hearted squirt round a tiny corner of the country these days I can see why they don't bother. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START >: --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/mad.gif ALT=">:"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START >: --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/mad.gif ALT=">:"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Rally

I know what you mean. I've most of the 'Top Gear Mobil 1' Britsh Rallies on tape from a good few years back and they're fantastic featuring Sierra Cosworths, Subaru Legacies, Pug 205's etc... All the stages are covered and there is in-car footage and great camera work. Is it me or are the modern rally cars just too advanced to be any fun to watch? I reckon there should be a motorsport show covering the classic car rallies / hillclimbs held throughout the year - surely there'd be millions who would like to see that<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Tinweevil it's sad to say I don't even know which rally you are talking about. (Triumph 10 Countries?) Truth is making rally videos is hard (as they go everywhere and last for days ) making circuit videos is easy as they go nowhere and last for minutes (...ok hours sometimes.) <br>
<br>
When Dave Richards headed for F1 the onus seemed to come off it and now I rarely seem to catch even the Channel four stuff (supposing it still exists!!) <br>
<br>
See threads elsewhere on Roger Albert Clark Rally in November - much more like itS but still only on Sky in the middle of the night or on small circulation DVD. <br>

Finally worked out what you are on about. Caught two minutes late at night on the telly. I think it is on again today. Nice to see McRae back in the seat (driving seat not the bad spanish car.) <br>
<br>
Others may laugh but I was quite impressed at how quickly your car was put back together.

I was very nearly on TV on one of the stages, I think if you slowed the video down youd be able to see my legs, thats my claim to fame <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
