I think they actually call it rally racing over there, not off-road. Maybe it's spelled "rallye", too. Silly English. :rolleyes:

Right around 2:45 the marshal throws a buggy pretty freaking hard. It ends up in another lane, but those cars really are fast.

No, we call it offroading, not rally (which isnt spelt rallye! we not french!!!)
- There just 10th 4wd buggys, on varous grass tracks, and the dirt track at tiverton.

Also, evaderstman, if you look closely at that bit i think you'll see thats not the car the marshall picked up, but one that ran over it while i was moving it.

Yup i see what your saying now, but from the camera angle it looks like the buggy got tossed hard.

Well at the IFMAR worlds, they had carpet on their offroad track. It wasn't covering the whole course, but carpet actually makes things difficult because you can see rocks or bumps that might be beneath it. It seems to be more popular in Europe however.

Cool vid :D
