So, I don't get it? I rally across the bay area all day and only pay for the gas? The winner doesn't get any money or prizes.... What's the point? Maybe it's worth it for all the places you stay?.. maybe they pay for your gas?

It held up perfectly fine. There are a few paint damages on the front of the car, but it has 24,000+ miles on it. The only damage I know of from the rally was a crack in the winsheild when it was being shipped home.

You meet a bunch of cool people, nice hotels, clubs, etc. I cant explain how fun it is doing over 100mph with 4-10 other cars at a time. FOr 2005 there will be prizes/awards, food, and stops at race tracks.

Just finished watching it. MTV picked two sucky cases to follow.

The RSX team was crappy. What, they didn't think they would get speeding tickets during a rally? And using a show car?! I cringed everytime I heard that exhaust as their car pulled out.

The Audi team was a lot of boo hoo too. The spoiled fresh out of HS kids get a brand new Audi. And one is scared of getting a speeding ticket because he'll lose his car. What an a$$hat. I bet he still has his car because his parents didn't have the guts to hold up to their threat.

I like the two girls in the M3 though. They should of got the "Spirit of the Rally" award if there was one. They stopped to help fellow rally drivers, sight seeing, and drove like mad women

So SuboobaruWRSEX, get any tickets?

Just saw the show. That Suby in the beginning doing donuts in the parking lot was great!
Those chicks on in the M3 were crazy, especially the white chick, she looked crazy. If I was there I would have tried to hook up with that chick in the RSX crew, she has a nice ***.
Looked like alot of fun I wouldn't mind entering if there was a rally starting in CA.

They featured the wrong cars again!

That wrx doing donuts waasssss TTTTYYYYTT!!!! it sucks that there will be no prize at all in the 2005 race. $3000 just to speed from philly to miam, not worth $3000. oh and yeah, that RSX exhaust sounds ugly, and the rims sucked, that's why they got a flat. I'm in MN and have to drive all the way to philly for the next race. Whey dont they have anything like this in the Mid-west????it would of been better if they followed better cars, and crazy *** drivers that speed the whole way... now that's what im going to be doing. CRAZY !!!!!!!!!!
