What times are people setting?

This year at Lydden, when it hit the blocks into turn 1 I believe. Big mess!

Last time I saw that car it'd been completely destroyed!

@tbtstt Who's Volvo is that?

Very expensive...

Think it might be a bit too extreme on the power side...

Yeah there's certainly disadvantages to sliding the car a lot, drivers like Solberg used to destroy tyres really early on in the weekend - and that hurt them a lot later on. Also powersliding every corner is actually not very fast at all. Generally speaking the smoothest rallycross drivers are the quickest, just look at what Kristoffersson and Ekstrom were able to achieve, they don't rotate the car half as much as some of their rivals. You can watch footage of them online, pretty interesting to compare styles.

Not 100% sure. I did do some research and it'd be a big overhaul to get the car into World RX, so I'm a little sceptical!

Haven't they massively shortened the wheelbase on the 2019 car? Can't remember but I heard it somewhere.

Yes, although he didn't win the race, Eriksson's steering broke and he crashed out. Went from celebrating the championship to nothing painfully fast...

He was called to the stewards because scuffle had taken place involving his team members, mandatory that he went.

Tierp damaged the cars way too much, Oliver Solberg lost a wheel from it. Needs refining!

Robin's driving is definitely better than his Photoshop skills 😂 His and RX Cartels instagram posts are gold.
