Ford Fiestas take Gold and Silver in *both* ralley events in X-games 16! Yup, Tanner Faust and his team mate took Gold and Silver respectively in both Ralley-Cross and the ne Super Ralley Cross! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
So how come nary a word in the media and no Ford media release on it? None! Bizarre!
Ford, Fiesta and Faust dominate X-games ralley events! (http://www.autoweek.com/article/20100801/MOTORSPORTS/100809999)

Is it possible Ford has decided to not brag on this and risk appearing a corporate 'bully' in an arena (X-games) where big corporate influence might tend to be viewed negatively by the grass-roots history of the games other athletes? Dunno, but it seems astoundingly odd.
Maybe 'Zeek,' the X-games media release guy, is on vacation this week ;-)
