Well...Marcus Gronholm rolled his focus about 9km into the 4th stage in Mexico today and broke the driveshaft and remained stuck in a ditch. The SupeRally regulations will more than likely eliminate him from returning to the Rally tomrrow and ends his chance for a third win in a row.

Marcus and co-driver Timo were both unharmed in the rollover and may drive with a second car tomorrow for mileage and notes. They will ,most likely, be unable to score manufacturers or drivers points!

Solberg lost his power steering on the last stage and lost the lead to Loeb - excellent !! Too bad for Marcus - he admitted he made a rookie mistake !! Pushed too hard.
Strive for that moment when you're only a slice of pizza and a hooker away from paradise.

I'm cheering for Gronholm, was last year too, and the year before that etc...

Petter is fun too. Loeb is boring.

Loeb is boring because his too good!
Civic's sucks!

SEX is like math: add the bed, subtract the clothes, divide the legs, and pray you don't multiply!
