    Reading comprehension isn't really your friend is it?

    Dan's been building Subarus for a long time. He's saying that Subarus are now cheap enough that they're the new DSM.

    I say let block leave for WRC. It will open up the playing field for another driver to take his place in RA and im guessing it would goto someone like Mirra, but who nows maybe a young talented driver that is capable of more can fill in his shoes (kyle sarasin comes to mind but there are others im sure)

    Wrong way to look at it!

    Manufacturers are in it for the $$. You don't have to win to make money...

    We get it, you don't like him. Danica Patrick doesn't have to win to make money, either. Pro racing is marketing, period.

    you are right. I WISH YOU WERE WRONG, but you are right, it's not about winning for factory teams..... (Travis is good at winning though) it is more about entertaining, and Ken Block is an entertainer (car wrecks are very intresting):laugh:.

    You are right too, I shall stop.

    EDIT*** (for the record, I do not hate Ken Block, I just think he is not as good as everyone thinks he is)
