Oh I forgot something slightly important. Our first local rallycross was last week. Since my car is disabled I got to drive a Focus.

The cool thing was it was at a speedway with a dirt circle track. The organizer invited all the dirt track guys to come run for free. With enough support he is going to try and organize a European style Rallycross. For any not familiar this is door to door racing through left and right turns on both tarmac and gravel.

His goal is to get some rules set so the dirt trackers and rallycrossers can both run. He wants to have 4 cars on a mixed gravel/tarmac course at a time. Some safety regulations will obviously have to be worked out. If this is a go, then I am definitely building my car to compete.

Here's some rallycross pics for fun. No shots of the Focus though :<
