    Favourite type of motorsport

    Did a quick search and didn't find anything so thought I'd throw it out here.

    What's yours?

    Moto GP is about the most engrossing to watch. Always on the edge of my seat by the end of every race.

    F1, when its good its really good. When its bad you get a nice sleep.

    Used to follow rallying a bit until it went epically now i couldnt care less, same with BTTC.

    No idea how any of you can watch F1 most boring thing on the planet nowadays, much prefer btcc, wrc or drifting personally.

    Good shout there

    For me it has to be tin top club racing. The close battles of things like the stock hatch, MR2 and single make championships can be fantastic to watch and prove you dont need raw speed make for good racing.

    Another fav is endurance racing for me. Alot of folk would find it boring but if you follow the tactics during a race then it gets you hooked.

    Drifting
    Touring cars
    rallying
    in that order!

    You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

    And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!

    1 - Local rallying (Irish tarmac and British championships), proper rallying with no slowing down for road position nonsense.
    2 - BTCC
    3 - Formula politics

    To be honest, id far rather watch older footage of proper driving or go watch rallying than watch any of the motorsport on TV today

    +1 for MotoGP....99 FTW (those of you who follow it will know)

    F1 is mildly amusing sometimes

    Can't believe nobody has mentioned FMX yet

    BTCC ... 3 races in a weekend, 1 normal, one carrying weight and the last carrying weight + a reversed grid.

    Plenty of over taking, nudging, "cheating" and races decided on the track

    stage rallying, it seperates the men from the lads, and the hot sweaty birds from the pristine barbies!
