Mark,

I have actually friends competing in the race but not with ISUZU of course. This is an amazing event! I love it!

I've seen most of the coverage, and I gotta say it makes me want to see Europe & Africa via VehiCROSS!:D Talk about "Go Farther"... I hope the Isuzu teams do well. I wonder how much factory support they get. Go Isuzu!

About five minutes into the Stage 5 show last night I got a glimpse of a vehicle from the side and rear that looked like a VX! I almost jumped outta my chair, but then I figured it had to be some other vehicle. I taped the replay today to get a good look at it. It turns out it's an OSCar. They're designed and built in Latvia for rally racing. It's got a BMW V-8. You can see how I thought it was VX. From the front it looks much different.

I must say, the sweeping lines and aerodynamic spare tire design are revolutionary. Wait a minute :rollr2:, why those Latvian SOB's copied all but the fangs :freek: Like looking at a illegitimate half brother or something :D Dayum nice looking vehicle :thumbup:
