Oh Lord. I'm strapped so tightly into the passenger seat of a 560bhp Ford Escort that I can barely breathe. Before I can register any protest, the driver dials in five thousand rpm and pushes the launch control button. The exhaust pops out sporadic bursts of hellfire. Bangbangbangbang!! Waarrrp!! Bangbangbang!!! We hurtle from zero to 60mph in under two seconds and my kidneys feel as though they belong to a prizefighter, but a losing one. Welcome to Rallycross...
