You Might Not Like Nascar ---but

world rallye racing is t dangerous to have multiple car courses. look at how many cars roll and flip and break **** during the course of a single stage, of 15 - 20 total stages.....look at marcus grunholm, last year's champ....he rolled 2x last year on ONE ciruit....maybe the most dangerous of the racing, but a close second in the most skilled racing has to go to the world super bike racers......consistent triple digit speed on 2 wheels......too many turns to list, lefties, righties, embanked u-turns....you name it....

each type of racing requires its own set of skills. I dont think there is any way of really showing one is more skilled then the other. Normally drivers like to do what they do best, so its unfair to put a nascar driver in a rallye car and expect him to kick ***. . .

The Michelin Race of Champions is a pretty good rating of how good a driver is a pretty neat event that is a decent test of overall skill. Team USA won, pretty wierd to see Jeff Gordon behind the wheel of a rally car. The full article is better in the magazine.

The best race drivers turn right. And left. And do U turns. In the snow. And mud. And rocks. At night. At triple digit speeds. Period.
They most likely can ALL outdrive me... I don't argue that NASCAR drivers are good... But they crack me up on the road course...
