Good - finally some guys from the US that aren't Nascar drivers that lose out in the first round. I've watched the 'ROC' the past 2-3 years!

Pound-for-pound the announcers usually agree that WRC type drivers usually have the best car control skills of the group.

 

Don't forget 2002 when USA won the Nation's Cup with two NASCAR drivers

When it was at Wembley Arena in GB. I heard there was a pre event that "us club drivers" could competed against each other to win a spot in the Champion races with the pros.
