KartRacerBoy Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Discuss all WRC and related rally topics here! Sticky, please! BTW, Subaru wouldn't have pulled out of the WRC if they hadn't stunk for the past 3 years plus. Citroen/Loeb domination stinks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryLitho Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Oh, I just started a thread on the Subie WRC pull out LOL.

Spoonwacker Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 So, how about US rally events? Videos from the 2009 Doo Wop Rally (yeah yeah, I dislike the music over the motors, too, but I'll take what I can get): [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eLQVMA4sY8]YouTube - Doo Wop Rally 2009[/ame] Untitled on Vimeo sorry...this forum practically blows goat nuts so im not always on here.Team Pony Express POSTED FROM MY COMPUTER USING A WEB BROWSER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Some classic cars too! I like that! I agree that it was too much music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonwacker Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 John Lane's blue '76 Volvo is an awesome machine - he's putting down 500+hp and nearly 600lb/ft of torque to the rear wheels! He's been pretty successful in the local rallies, but he'll need to do some work after this one: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4COfIwsQ9p0]YouTube - 2009 DooWop CRASH John Lane/Jason Grahn Smith Creek West[/ame] sorry...this forum practically blows goat nuts so im not always on here.Team Pony Express POSTED FROM MY COMPUTER USING A WEB BROWSER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) An oops... Not too bad though... That should probably buff right out! What kind of engine does he have in that? Not the standard B20 (if it was originally a 240 L) or B21... And I know that the V6 of the 260 is prone to self destruction if you try to push it too hard.

Spoonwacker Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I was able to dig this up (http://www.dmcnews.com/Techsection/performance.html) Looks like it's a built PRV V6 with a T04E turbo. WARNING: This combination has resulted in my breaking EVERY part in the drivetrain downstream of the engine. sorry...this forum practically blows goat nuts so im not always on here.Team Pony Express POSTED FROM MY COMPUTER USING A WEB BROWSER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 That's amazing - he must have replaced everything inside that alu block. Last one I heard of that turbocharged that V6 left a conrod in the pavement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonwacker Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Yep, sounds like he had that problem... I have learned the hard way that the standard connecting rods are not up to the task. When it blew up, all the rods except for the one that made shrapnel were shorter by one to two mm. Too many parts were missing from the broken rod to guess how much shorter it was before it expired. Yikes!! Forced induction will push a LOT harder on everything. :eek: sorry...this forum practically blows goat nuts so im not always on here.Team Pony Express POSTED FROM MY COMPUTER USING A WEB BROWSER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like It Sideways Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 John Lane's blue '76 Volvo is an awesome machine - he's putting down 500+hp and nearly 600lb/ft of torque to the rear wheels! He's been pretty successful in the local rallies, but he'll need to do some work after this one: He certainly knows how to drive...amazing car control.

2BritsRacing Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 If you're looking for WRC coverage you should check out JMLatvalaFan on youtube. He always has the WRC European coverage up on there pretty much as the event is going on. There's great coverage of the most recent events.
