Ledge,
One can never dismiss the skills required for each genre of motorsport. Personally I never understood drag racing, however those who do it have my respect.
What I liked about rallying is that encompassed all the good things about motorsport, it was pure. Big engines and big budgets didn't guarantee results, neither did big balls for that matter but they were certainly more useful
Sideways, flat out in 5th, down a logging road at the back of Bega in the middle of the night with a 100 ft drop off one side and trees on the other...priceless
Cheers
