Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

That's what I was thinking. Several looked like they were completely suprised by it.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

They wouldn't necessarily know what was happening, or exactly which corner was the problematic one.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

exactly, rally is really a 1 car show at any given corner, the only time the cars will see each other is the parc expose's, service, if one breaks down and cant continue. Many of those it looks like it was soft enough to roll em back over and they would continue

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

not, most of the time they havent seen the stage before, at least on that level of rally, the WRC guys get to recce the course a few days before to try and make some notes about where to cut, not cut, ect.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

That's part of what makes rallying so challanging. Not only do they have to dive on different surfaces (ice, snow, tarmac, gravel, etc.), but they are also driving by the seat of the pants with only codriver pace notes guiding them.
