Rally should be shut down before Hicksy wins this thing

By: Scotty Beveridge

Loeb comes third in Japan and when you read some of the reports before the round and think back to the same situation last year, it makes complete sense. When Loeb only has to come third or less to seal the title, he will drive like Mikko. But alas, only David Hicks had the foresight or guts to go with this pick. And good luck to him too, because he has sealed the title just like Loeb. It is IMPOSSIBLE for any amount of seat belt time penalties or cancelled stages or mysterious selections for bonus driver by Boss Hogg or all Ford's getting five minute penalties for some bullsh!t infrigement at the end of a rally or the leading two cars to crash out whilst being 1-2 on the second last stage of a rally like NZ this year or a driver from the Munchi's team to stall it on the final stage to deny David Hicks the title this year. IMPOSSIBLE, I tell ya. So the interest now moves to the rest of the podium places. I reckon the springbok (Gert III) is going to be taken down in a big way. He'll be fourth at best after the final rally and possibly fifth. TEAM K (the new Hicksy because he's always the bridesmaid and never the bride) will take second and Adolf Warne will take third. Of course the way my predictions have gone this year, this will be proven wrong. Let's hope I'm not wrong, or else Hicksy will blow something up I reckon... Mumbai will come to Bray Park in a big way.

But now to other rally news. Loeb got a haircut, or so I've been told, or maybe I interpreted that text message incorrectly [copyboy note: you interpreted that text incorrectly] ... Anyway, vote now... Should this be shut down before Hicksy wins. Text Yes or No to 533115 now!! Lines are closed and this nummber doesn't exist. Charges are higher from a mobile phone. Also, please send any suggestions for rule adjustments to Boss Hogg now (admin@understeer-tt.com). Would you like to see bonus points scrapped (BTW: At last check TEAM K got 50 points more than anyone else in race bonus points alone), or any other thing changed or tweaked. Finally, good luck for the last weekend of underSteer for 2008.
