Why doesn't the WRC have a round in the US?

vehicle emissions regulations.

have to go to Mexico if you want some WRC action.

Oh the irony.

vehicle emissions regulations.

are you being seious?

thats the most rediculous thing i've ever heard.
america has emissions regulations
i just always assumed there was no usa rally because of the sueing culture you have over there, plus the fact that there dosnt seem to have been a big enough following/intrest.
saying that though i'm sure there was a bid put forward not so long ago for a wrc round, dont know how i went though.

yep definitly PC as well, its a game you must have, CMR05 dosnt even compare when it comes to physics graphics etc.
and if you have the PC version you can download extra cars, there is a GroupB mod being made at the moment(6r4/quattro s1/205t16 etc), curently running a Lancia Delta S4(Metro 6R4 physics) at the moment.
friggen great game.
just remember though its a SIM, it wont be easy.

huh. i've got slipstreams on my civic as well. my 15" wheels are about 12lbs ea - great bang for the buck.

i think it looks nicer now tho

it's too low, on the other hand: i'm actually RAISING it back to stock height. suspension geometry is all screwy now. also the unpainted side skirts are ugly

Beautiful pics. Rally is one of the few forms of car racing that I find enjoyable.

whats the mod list like tosh?

 

[Toshi]

whats the mod list like tosh?

front mounted intercooler
VF34 turbo (mid sized, ball bearing) currently pumping out 19 psi
UTEC engine management
600cc injectors/255 lph Walbro fuel pump to feed the thirst
Tial 38mm wastegate currently venting to the atmosphere (loud! along with the BOV) but soon to be routed back into the downpipe
13 lb. flywheel + 3 puck clutch == hard to drive around town (but that's getting swapped next week)
STi RA gearset, which means 60 mph = 3000 RPM in 5th
Kartboy short shifter. also STi center diff (but not DCCD)
Nitrous Express N-tercooler (NOS shot to the intercooler for cooling on 85% throttle)
10" JL sub in the trunk and an iPod mount on the dash... plus a bunch of minor/appearance mods.

the suspension is the weakest point. right now it sits on too-low Tanabe DF springs and KYB AGX struts, and i'm reverting to stock WRX springs to gain some compliance and clearance. i hope to go to coilovers in the spring.

well the emitions is one of the reasons.
