Default X-Games 16 - Rally & Rallycross

Not sure if anyone on here is interested, but X-Games 16 is this weekend. The last couple of years they've included rally (of sorts) as an event and this year they are adding rallycross as well.

This will be the formal debut of European-style rallycross in the US and, although its probably going to be contained for American TV, its still great to see the sport moving to the US. Its also going to mark the debut of the rallycross spec hatchback Impreza:



Godawful colours but it looks like a serious bit of kit under the bonnet, theres a pretty good article on building the car here:

Subaru have got some serious talent behind the wheel of their cars this year as well, so it'll be interesting to see how competitive the car is - if it does well perhaps there will be more interest in the car in rallycross in Europe?

ESPN will be showing the whole of X-Games over Saturday and Sunday, with the rally and rallycross schedule found by clicking here:

And for those of you without ESPN (which includes me! ) the highlights will more than likely appear on You Tube over the course of the weekend!

Brilliant, thanks very much! I normally wait for a week or so after X-Games as you can normally find a torrent for the rally, that looks like a better way of doing it though!
