Should be revealing!
Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom

    It's only a road car i think.

    I reckon Hoy could be leading at the end of the first 'lap' and will be overtaken near the end.

    As above, Hoy will get a lead over the car but fatigue will set in and lose some if not all of the advantage he has gained come the end.

    Lewis will be in a mercedes and Hoy will be riding this bike :lol:
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Will be interesting, personally I would prefer it if ROC has remained as Toivonens memorial end of season rally bash and on gravel. Would really like to make the trip down for it though.

    When they say Mercedes road car it isn't giving many hints. Mercedes have been used in long distance rallying in the past, and a rally car is by definition a road car. If they mean standard road car then it gets interesting as mercs are generally big heavy and rear wheel drive. The ROC track is a very tight Figure of 8. Chris' biggest problem may be in keeping the speed on in the corners and there isnt' much of a run up to the bridge.
    Do Nellyphants count?

    Well if Hoy's on a ferrari he'll probably just say something to the stewards before the race eh? :wink:

    *huge ferarri fan by the way*
    Note: the above post is an opinion and not fact. It might be a lie.
