Rally crashes vid
Clicky
An hour and a half of the french crashing cars!
You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

A lot of those crashes are due to drivers not knowing the track

Nice thing to do with French cars  (just kidding!)
What i still don't understand is that folks still standing in corners and much to close to the circuit.

I do cringe when i see those Mk1 & Mk2 Escorts crashing. Infact all the historic cars. What a waste.

French people are funny.
The co-drivers must know when their rally is over, they keep throwing the pace notes out of the window.
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!

Err that's the big pull of rallying - not knowing the track, and having to rely on the co-driver to tell you where to go. Most club type events
use maps, but are moving towards pacenotes. These are sometimes more dangerous as the notes are written by a third party. His version of a fast right
may not be yours!
The crashes occur because the driver is going too fast for the circumstances - much the same as road driving really - or just plain incompetence (they
call it trying too hard!).

That's really bad! After watching a lot of WRC rallys, I've concluded that rallying in Ireland (and I'm sure the UK) is the safest
in the World. granted you don't always get to watch from the best pointsbut at least you always get to go home.

Not only the safest, but irish tarmac rallying is the best I have watched in the world too!!
Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion
retro car restoration and tuning
