GotCone.com has gotten a makeover of sorts with a brand new site design for 2010. The gallery has been redone so that less scrolling will be necessary to see the photos, which hopefully will help the overall experience on the website. If you run into any issues please let me know by posting a comment below. I tried to test the site in a wide variety of web browsers, but there are some many varieties it is hard to get all of them. Please let me know what you think of the new site design!
Discovery HD Theater is continuing it’s coverage of WRC again this year. Last year they played coverage of the complete season’s events in sequence beginning near the end of the season. It appears this year they are going to have coverage much closer to when the events occur.
Coverage of Rally Sweden will be televised on Thursday at 9 PM (central). Sounds like there was some exciting rally action in the snow a couple weeks ago in Sweden, so should be a fun watch.
Ken Block will be joining the World Rally Championship at WRC’s next event, Rally Mexico. He will be driving a Monster Energy Drink Ford Focus RS for the rest of the season. Here’s a pre-season interview from the WRC site. Ken will also be completing the Rally America season including this weekends 100 Acre Woods event in Salem, MO.
There will be mud…
Switch supermarkets. Eat cardboard. Do whatever it takes to find a few extra quid a month. Because Prodrive has just launched this Impreza Group N rally car and for the first time ever, you can have it on a monthly lease plan. Then, after two years when you’re the new Seb Loeb, it will be yours (after one final and probably rather fat payment).
Or if you’ve got a spare £120,000, you can buy it upfront. Prodrive reckons it’s almost as quick as next year’s WRC cars (when the championship switches to less ballistic regs), while costing half as much.
The key, we’re told, is the air restrictor – its diameter has increased by, erm, a whole millimetre. With the new set of lungs, some high-flow fuel injectors and a tickled ECU, you get 20bhp more than the old car. It also gets new dampers with more travel.
And if you go for the lease-plan option, Prodrive will throw in a free auto insurance policy. An auto insurance policy like this is useful when you hit trees and goats or other cars, and for legal coverage you can hire an auto accident attorney. When this happens though, you may need to contact a personal injury lawyer for claims if you are injured.
Welcome to the all new GotCone.com blog, which will hopefully provide some tips and discussion of ways to make you and your car better. And we all want that don’t we? I am hoping the blog will become a great resource for all things autocross, rallycross and racing in general.
