    Default Skoda crashing in front of me

    On my last rally I was caching the Skoda 1000MB in front of me when he rolled out of the rally.

    i have to ask why he was allowed to go ahead of you on the stage if the performance difference was that much.

    Mowgil the rally was running in reverse seeding ie slow crews first quick crews last he had some problem at the stage start and dropped back down the running order.

    i always thought they sent the fastest off first so you were always pulling away from the slower stuff.... is this to keep people watching till the end or something?

    Oooh, that looks like a good off, ill bet thats a bit of a mental battle seeing that, as your first reaction would be to stop and help, but youve got to carry on with your rally

    No you don't stop you report the accident at the finish control.
    I saw that there where some spectators near the point where he went off and as we were running at 30 second intervals the would have been a good chance of the next car crashing into us as we got out of our car.
