Rallycross vs. .....uh rallycross

Alright, I'm a little confused.

I've read about local rallycross events (I guess there's one in vicinity of Cincinnatti), but it seems a bit different from what I see here (WRC.NO website) and have seen on the Rallisport2 XBox video game. I guess it boils down to tarmac and dirt vs. just dirt.

This looks like the mostest fun for the leastest dollar and the possibly a tremendously novice novice like myself.

Thanks

btw, if you haven't seen the videos off of the website I posted above, they are some of the most exciting I've seen.

Actually the difference is that some Rallycross in Britain and Europe is wheel to wheel circular track racing. The tracks are also permenant.

Here in the states, rally cross is more like autocross, but on dirt. Which mean, the organizers find an empty dirt parking lot, setup cone and everyone drives through the course one at a time.
