Well it’s Friday again, and that means its time for the weekly edition of Lap Of The Blogs. I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekly racing videos. I’ll get right to it as I forgot my battery charger at the office and the battery in my laptop is on it’s last legs! :)

This Week’s Racing Video
Rally car drivers are amongst the craziest (and most skilled) drivers on the planet. This video is a compilation of some WRC Rally Cars (highest form of rally racing) making some big jumps during the course of competition. In case you didn’t know: there are no practice runs in a rally. The driver and co-driver can do a very slow speed reconnaissance run and that’s it. Yeah, these guys are crazy!

Thanks for the link Preet. Have a nice weekend!
Wow! Where is that Rally race held? I’ve never seen anything like that in California.
Hi Jagdu – I believe every clip is from WRC rallies from all over the world. WRC – World Rally Championship. To my knowledge they still don’t have a WRC rally in the States, I think the closest one is in Mexico.
Just do a google search on WRC rally and you’ll find tonnes of info.
