What car do you use for rallycross?

Oh, just a glorified VW

Is that their blood types next to their names? That race must have been pretty hardcore.

Having your blood type somewhere convenient is always a good idea if there is a chance of serious injury.

I've seen it on motorcycle helmets, and on more than a few race car helmets.

I've seen it on the car... On the helmet, and on the fire suit. Rallying ain't for pansies..

well they are making a "Transsyberia Cayenne". six speed and a buch of other goodies. I think they'll go for some where around the neiborhood of 87,000. I would love to get a Porsche, but not that one. There nothing wrong with it I just dont like it.

The Transsyberia edition Cayenne is very impressive, I checked one out at Rennsport last year, things a beast... available soon for 70K+ at a dealer near you... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTLBHwIwNoc phallus? maybe, but one that elicits a scream instead of a giggle..

Now that my VX is paid off maybe ill start rally crossing it...

Porsche has made a decent minivan with the Cayenne.

It's still an AMC Eagle rip-off though.

In the 80's when I used to Hang Glide, I had "0+ No Allergies" on my helmet and a medical release tucked inside. Whatever it is I need, please don't wait.

Call it young or naive, but I don't know if I would do that today.

most endurance racing has blood type badges, F1 had it in the 60's-80's, and rallying of all kind definitely has it.
