You have to travel, if you want to watch a quality race you gotta travel to the good locations. Its like saying you go to the amusement park go kart ride and except to drive a F1 car.

Yeah... I believe WRC drivers are very skilled and also completely nuts. You gotta have a lot of courage going 120 mph plus with a very deep drop off right next to you.

WRC > all other forms of racing.

Traction is overrated.
