mmm, I'd have to drive either a Peugeot or a Lancer Evo. As far as surface, I like the loose stuff when it comes to rally type driving; definately snow.

I've always been a Subaru fan...but I think any of the WRC cars would be hella fun to drive! I wasn't too happy to see all the trading teams this past year with Burns going Peugeot, Tommi going Subaru, Markko Martin going Ford...etc, etc...

As for road surface...I'm with transient...Loose stuff makes for fun driving! Snow, gravel, dirt, and mud...WOO HOO!

I like it light and fast. So:

Mazda 323 GTI-R ( 2400lbs 400hp)

Another choice might be ford escort cosworth <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I LOVE Rally, and there are so many great choices in Rally cars now. I think I would have to go against the grain here and choose to drive a Focus. They are so UGLY they are almost cool.

As for track surface I like dirt/gravel because I'd have to try to tame Pike's Peak as soon as I could

Rallying is awesome. &nbsp;I'd wanna race on on dirt or snow. &nbsp;My choices for cars are the EVO I,II,III or something old school like the Lancer turbo(lantabo) &nbsp;or the Starion.

i would definitely roll in a Pulsar GTi-R, &nbsp;since i am a big SR20DET fan. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

rally looks like fun. &nbsp;those drivers have no fear! they slide around on dirt inches from falling off the cliff and they dont even flinch!

Let's see...I get to drive a WRC car? I'll take the Scooby please... :drool:

Something a little more local? Perhaps my uncle's rally Saab, since it's the only one I may ever actually get to drive <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

(Not to toot my own horn, but you can see his car on page 56 of the Dec '00 issue of SCC. damn, I sound like a glory hound for pointing that out, but I don't care, makes me proud <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>)

Rally looks like a lot of fun, but a lot of danger too. I would prolly go with a Celica GT-Four or a Tommy Makinen EVO. The best of course is Snow, gotta love snow drifting, and Ice looks even crazier too.

hopefully this winter if I finally get a car I wil go up to wiconsin with this MR2 guy for some Ice Trials, in other words AutoX on Ice, lol sounds like Lion King on Ice. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

I would want to drive a lacia Delta s4. Those cars were awd and a supercharged/turbocharged 4 cylinder engine pushing around 400 hp. The place would be greece at the acropolis rally or on the Island of cyprus because I would want to win and do it in front of my people. Much love for the greeks &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
