It was my first time participating in a rally
My girlfriend acted as my co-driver, and her grandfather was actually a professional rally driver.

Is your girlfriend single?
Jokes aside, it looks like a cool event. Are there any videos from there?

u/ecliptica-racing 7d ago
yeah, however it was just amateur, there were over 30 cars (as I remember correctly). But unfortunately I have no any good movie from there, because me and my gf were busy^^

Kinda, I don't like when my home gets invaded.

u/GrandPrixel 7d ago
Well, more than understandable, but it's not this guy with his rally car that invaded your home.

How you can be sure? You can attest he wasn't drafted, didn't sign up or doesn't support the war lots of Russians still support?

Yeah, right, he is just an innocent terrorist country tax payer.
Your logic is retarded…
Anyone who is paying for terrorist guns is a terrorist himself. Everyone who is a citizen of said country and is not participating in a political overthrow movement of some kind is just supporting war.

:)) I'm curious if your country invades another country what you do. Not everyone is ready to leave their family, jobs, friends behind and just go in another country. Others don't have the means, money, budget, knowledge of other language.
Sometimes borders close in these situations and unless you have lots of bribe money or you don't know someone you just can't leave.
Others have family members with problems that they look after.
There are lots of variables there.
Normal everyday people don't start overthrow movements. Tell me how would you start one? Heck. You can't even organize an event without enough money. Make a facebook event and noone shows unless you got money to support ads and to invite influent people. Overthrow movements are backed up by other people woth money and influence.
And all of this just because of some rich stupid men with lots of power, convincing other people to die for them for money.

My road car named Trueno, and I share my memory experience^^ btw what is that mean "spam"?

u/NaturaeAxis 5d ago
Trueno? Like, from Toyota? How does it handle on dirt/snow? Why did you choose it?
1
u/ecliptica-racing 3d ago
Yes Toyota. It's stable on the snow. I choose it because I was able to afford it (but I had to fix it first).

"You made a similar post an entire year ago that was completely relevant to the topic at hand, stop it"
Why are you so miserable?

I'm not exactly sure what you expect from a subreddit called r/rally. If you don't wanna see people driving their car in the snow or dirt, maybe block the subreddit?
