Video: How did I miss this?! The wildest rallycross ever?

I see a CAPTCHA.  Not sure if this is a my-end issue or not.

That was fun, thank you. WRC fans will recognize the last name of the second place driver.

I knew these cars are spicy, but I had to look it up. There was no such thing as full throttle in this race!

The top-level RX1 Supercars division use 2.0 L, turbocharged, four-cylinder engines, which produce approximately 570–600 hp (430–450 kW), and between 620–680 lb⋅ft (840–920 N⋅m) of torque,[16] while using a 45 mm (1.8 in) intake restrictor.[17][18][19]: 5/41 [20][21][22][23] The engines run 50 psi (3.4 bar) of boost pressure,[24][25] and completely unrestricted, are capable of making about 1,000 hp (750 kW) and 1,100 lb⋅ft (1,500 N⋅m) of torque.[26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] They are four-wheel-drive, and use a Sadev 6-speed sequential gearbox. They use launch control, and are capable of accelerating from 0–60 mph (0–97 km/h) in under 2 seconds; which is faster than a Formula One car. Fully prepared, the cars weigh about 1,300 kg (2,900 lb), including the driver, and with oil and fuel.

Reminds me of ice racing on mild days.  Lots of water and deep slush. But there was way more grip than on the ice which made for some fast fun!

Might as well be I-4 when it rains. Just needs more people flashing their hazards. 

In reply to Keith Tanner :

Some of them are dual-powertrain electric RX1e cars including the one that won the race in the video:

This is my favorite; the first race. Guy won with a broken toe link.

Great cars and driving, only damaged by one seriously annoying announcer.

All that engine technology and no one has figured out how to make windshield wipers better.
