Rallying or Real racing?

[Mk 1 Mark]

I'm surprised, I assumed most of you Escort owners would be rally biased as thats were the majority of it's motorsport history lies.

 

Circuit racing - and my favorites would have to be the Zakspeed Escorts.

[Muzz]

Gotta be Rallying, just got back from the Tempest and the MK2's sounded the nuts!!

[diffed]

Rallying all the way

 

No room for mistakes

has to be track but wot about a tarmac spec rally car they are basically a track car but with mudflaps and a co-pilot

[Johnson]

circuit cars look low and loud. but there is something about standing in a freezing cold woods watching a forest arched mk2 scream past at full chat. an it take balls of steel to skim your prid and joy past trees and ditches. anyone who losses it on a track just needs to brush the gravel off. all though i do like a good bumper to bumper race. im undesided. good question mate.

rallying every time, nothing wrong with circuits but nothing beats the sight of a gp4 escort slightly sideways with a front wheel in the air.

 

mines certainly staying on the stages!

[Guest markb__s1]

circuit racing for sure.

rallyin all day long, any 1 can drive on a nice wide smooth race track, takes somthing else (most rally drivers are missin somthing up there) to drive at high speed down a narrow forest road and gp4 mk2 sounds so much nicer than zakspeed mk2

 

 

Oh yes! The rest of ya that chose circuits should be ashamed of yourselves!

From last weeks' Kingdom Stages

 

Rallying all the way!

Personally, id much rather see overtaking... Alright seeing an escort dancing its way through a stage is a site to behold... Its much nicer seeing ten of the bastards fighting for position!!! And escorts on stilts and nobbly tyres look PANTS!!

the way I see it, rally cars always look like they're going fast, like they're actually working for their living. The black stuff boys always look like they're out for a sunday cruise in a picture!!

(that's my opinion anyway)

[Morley]

But the blackstuff boys have got to overtake... Whilst still driving fast and smooth! The only time a rally car has to overtake is if someones wrapped a car round a tree!
