It seems to be dreamed up by an 8 year old in a sand box, with heavy input from sponsors who noticed the large surface area for placing logos.

You know I didn’t! Thought the idea of a race van had gone atomic. Perhaps some thought needs to go into course spectators then?

The rally support truck class is probably my favorite. I love the fact that everyone is racing!

Heyhey, no harm intended. Just trying to be light hearted. I agree about the spectators, always dangerous on open road courses for these events.

And no offense taken, I’m pretty clueless about many things, “fringe” sports included! Figured w/the TDU, Astana was promoting itself through some new medium; a souped up monster truck w/an insane driver. Besides, my family will tell you, I’m pretty obtuse regardless ;).

Luck or skill? I think a healthy combination of both.
