      @@strahinjastevic7480 it takes a totally different bread to drive rally. It's the art of going flat out through a one way road with no shoulders and massive drops covered with anything but asphalt in the middle of the boonies is some eastern European country in a Fiesta with 500 horsepower and a roll cage. You can't be sane to do that.
