Jesus H! I've seen a similar video to this, with a huge great wooden pole going through the windscreen of a car in the (thankfully unoccupied) passenger seat - I think I'd go straight out and buy a lottery ticket! Once I'd changed my pants.

That must be the sttest 'rally' car I've ever seen. Was it a 1 litre? And does he know you're supposed to lift off the throttle on upshifts?

Its a 106. Which is quite popular in the lower-classes.

Enlighten us, the closest I can get on google is Kurwa (we) which you probably don't want to admit to learning while on holiday. wink

Are you sure, looks more like the interior of a Corsa B to me?

I've said this once and I'll say it again "out of all motorsport drivers, rally drivers really do have the biggest balls."

It's used as a general swear word, in the same way we use fk or st.

Astra F interior for sure. And it didn't seem to go very fast. But it's all about the driving and the fun, not who has the fastest car.

I thought he was going to crash into the wall when they came out of the trees. Might of just been the camera not adjusting to light than the drivers themselves which made me think that though.

So it does actually mean we, it is just used for general swearing?

In my last job there were quite a few Polish colleagues, every third word was kurwa.

I just started typing a witty retort about how i reognised the glovebox from a 106.

I googled just to check before submitting the post...

Couldn't agree more. Looked good enough to me, but it was only the other week when we found out 50% of the PH audience could drift better than Ken Block.

If only we could finance a race team...we'd clean up.
