i think so... not the old iroc that they used to show after indy races but the euro one with the f1 and rally stars competing against each other.. i think it was this past week....

tanner foust was reppin usa since travis pastrana was hurt or somethin. i read that david coultard won but im not sure. curious if they show this on tv? i recall catchin it a few years ago on speed but i wasnt as serious about watchin it as i am now (i became an f1 fan recently)

curious if they are gonna air it? obiously not as important as nascar, i cant miss an episode of monster jam or truck u lolol (crap redneck speed shows) jk

they dont show wrc anymore huh?? they need to mmake a international motorsports channel lol

If you want to see a dirty driver look at Millen himself. The brake checks the hell out of every one but Dai.

lol. since when does strategy = dirty?
if you ever watch kazama or kumakubo drive they do stuff like that all the time! like nailing the throttle to pull away, then shedding a ton of speed really rapidly to force whoever is behind them to spin or go off line.

being super aggressive =/= dirty.

But remember how hard Millen cried last year at Sonoma when Dia Ebrake initiated and millen couldn't adjust and lost. lol

i TOTALLY agree !!!!
Here in the US, people think of using technique to throw your oponite off as dirty. But it's completely one of the tools you need to use in drifting.

c'mon stop trying to save face... a dirty driver is a dirty driver.... just stop, you can't just call a woman a whore and expect her to take it as a compliment.

In the racing world, we usually avoid hip or trendy terms and stick with the common terms for the last 100 plus years.
So a good driver makes sense.
A dirty driver is a cheater.

IROC was best when they used the fluorescent colored Trans Ams. I caught an IROC race way back in 2003 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Jimmie Johnson won I think.

IROC is different from ROC
Race Of Champions / 14 December 2008 (http://www.raceofchampions.com/)

I still think Foust repping the USA is pretty weak..

This was on TV for me. Fuel TV or whatever the station is called on my digi cable. Was neat with the buggies and cars and the stuff. Tight course!


Coulthard did not win. I'll leave it at that...great effort though from him!. I don't want to ruin any surprises on who did, for those who didn't see it
