I have nothing against that (I actually really like short-course racing) but to me it isn't rallycross.

If the rest of the circuits this year are similar I wonder if some teams (specifically thinking JC Raceteknik) will last. The first two rounds must have already cost them a fortune in repairs.


With more ground clearance it looks like a Dakar car.

This weekend I was wondering if the Subaru's are specially built for these extreme tracks.
