USRallycross should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Jenson Button

No this isn't in the wrong section! Thought the old timers on here may enjoy this.

I got to spend sometime with Jenson last night and we got talking about rallycross. He marvels at some of the cars his Dad drove - without any electronic aids - and also at how 'physical' his Dad's driving was.

We talked about the Fiesta's (and sorry the GRC) and he was amazed at the performance levels even bringing is engineer into the conversation (so that was me out of my depth). His eyes widened at the torque numbers and said he would love to have a run in the car some day (with 1000 contractural commitments allowing!).

Also told him to remind his Dad of his old rallycross friends (the Gibson's especially) and get him to come out to a Retro Rallycross event. We exchanged cards so who knows maybe John will come out in a the Beetle or Golf!
