Default Worlds Top 10???????

Racing Lines have done an article on the Worlds Top 10 drivers - Hirosaka isn't No.1 ??????? How can this be???

None of the guys even listed Matt Francis in their picks and he won 2 off road worlds in 2wd EP - isn't this one of the standout classes?????????

I think these characters have inhaled to many nitro fumes

Ill defend RL to the end.. why? For a lousy $10 per edition, Racing Lines is the ONLY thing motivated Luke to exercise his poor reading skills and dramatically improve. Would have cost me a BUCKET load more to get a tutor.

RL - Keep em coming... need to grab a copy.

Crazy Lines Top #10.

#1 Constantine Rod
#2 Tom Tightline
#3 Fred Spectrum
#4 Peter Block
#5 Frank Shaft
#6 Brock Bearing
#7 Benson Button
#8 Elmer Plug
#9 Barry Maniglow
#10 Steve Flameout

Seriously it is one of those thing that you will always overlook someone.

There are good arguements for many drivers!

Hi guys,

Looks like a few people have read the article so I hope you enjoyed it and it provoked some thought into who you would rate as the best.

Thanks to the guys who participated in the article for putting their opinions on the line and out to public scruitiny. Give them a hard time and question them extensively on why they selected such and such and isn't so and so better than XYZ haha. There will always different opinions and with the sport becoming more mature there can only be 10 spots in the "A Final". Maybe Matt Francis was a close BQ??

Is there anyone else out there that we missed or who you think should have been up there?

Look out in 2010 for the list of Australia's best drivers - will your name be there? I think DazC's might be!
