This is cool! Not only do we get Kimi Räikkönen in WRC this year, but Ken Block will also join the party in Mexico. Proof here: www.rallysweden.com/wrc/en/?p=67 Jussi PS. Did someone post this already or not?

I love that Block made this move, only because it is sooo pissing off the Subie fanbois

Well that new Impreza is useless in WRC, so if Block wants to have a fair chance, he needs either a Ford Focus WRC or a Citroën C4 WRC and as he is American, Ford suits him better. Jussi

Thats a name i havent heard in a while. Ive seen Bernstien race in person a few times at IRP(Indianapolis raceway park), years ago. Im more into Rally now than Drag racing. Your only 8 years younger than i Kasper! stig, when are you going to start Rally racing? That Saab might make a good Rally car!

How much do you want to bet that Ken Block mother called him Kenny when he was a young boy......

My Saabs wouldn't. Too GM (aka terrible chassis and weak suspension). Give me an old 900 and yes. But rally is mad expensive to get into...

Don't you have "Folkrace" over there? Entry level Rally-X for people who do not have too much money to spend on their hobby. Look: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FolkraceThe basic idea is, that all cars cost the same ($1000). You can put how ever much money you want into your ride, but after race, if someone wants to buy your car, you have to sell it for that price. Jussi PS. Wikipedia makes this sound like a Swedish thing, but it's actually from Finland.

Which I would love to try but I've never felt right about putting my daily driver through it, and the track car is toooo low (also why I ice race my 9-3).
