Rally Cross

[Dod]

How cool is it? Is there a better form of Motorsport, I think not!!

Theres a show on Men and Motors occationally featureinf footage from Irish Show RPM that covers Irish motorsport and it usually features races from Mondello Park, Co.Kildare in Ireland.

WHere else do you see Novas beating RS200s and Ford Kas beating Lotus Elices?n (sp)

If you get a few minutes, check it out on Youtube. Worth a look.

See if you can find any Videos on Youtube, there is a fantastic track at Mondello. THe action is frantic and very fast paced and well worth watching.

I use to watch this years ago on eurosport when they used 6r4's and rs200.

[Dod]

They still do but fron last nights viewing, the RS200s and 6R4's were getting torn apart by Fiestas, Novas and Renault Clios!! Absolute quality entertainment and viewing.

Lol @ the nova pushing the V6 clio round the corners, guess its too big to corner properly then lol

[Dod]

No, its just the Nova has something savage like 600bhp.

the clio is pulling away on the straights though, nova catches it through the corners !

they show rally-cross on a fifth gear episode as a cheap motor-sport as you can buy a car and race it for under 2.5k so they say they sent vicki butler hendson round in a 205 gti wich was slightly modified from standard
