CAR CONTROL DEFINED

I’ve always regarded rally driving as the purest form of motorsports. Over a season, rally drivers and their navigators compete on a variety of courses in every conceivable road condition including snow, ice, rain, dirt, gravel, smooth tarmac etc. From start to finish a team must race against time. Since the driver and the navigator races on the course alone, there is no opportunity to block other competitors just to maintain a position. A team only knows their position after the race leg, requiring that they drive on the very limits. What amazes me most about rally drivers is the incredible car control that they posses.

I've attached a clip below to give our readers an opportunity to appreciate their skills. Enjoy.
