.....0! i haven't seen this one yet. it's really funny and exciting. i don't see how NASCAR or F1 is more interesting than seeing cars take down bird nests and eat bush for their last meal! it's also funny how the engines rev high while in the air and then rev back while the car is flipping 10 times.

i love how they laugh and cheer, but then all of the sudden the cheering and laughing all together turns to panic simultaneously in seconds before the accidents ever happen!!!!

the yellow car at the beginning is funny. HAHAHAAH.

definitely Finnish. these are from local rallies as even the locals push the limits. in Poland, local rallies are just as interesting as the WRC but it isn't possible to destroy your car as bad because the roads are super narrow and are overgrown with tall grass & meadows so if something happens the cars are slowed down right away with nothing in the way. here's an example of Citroen-Sponsored Russian Evgeny Novikov in WRC Rally of Poland 2009:

(I didn't go because I didn't want to fly over only to see 2 Manufacturers compete) ahh such beautiful unspoiled un-urbanized countryside.

I like rally and GT racing, not much into anything else. More into the GT racing though.

i don't watch GT, or Le Mans, or none of those but this was pretty awesome: <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OL2HF-sFLnc"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OL2HF-sFLnc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> i don't even watch WRC because the 1990's were so great and today it totally sucks. but supposedly every rally is supposed to be televised on the Discovery Channel in HD next year.
