The only thing wrong about the pyramid is that it's missing on more level.

Rally.

Find me another motorsport where dodging cows at 120mph over gravel on a course you've never driven at speed before happens twice a month. Where wrecking doesn't mean you have to wait for the saftey crew to pull you off the wall or out of a sand trap, but where wrecking mean you hope you don't plummet all the way down the mountain into the ocean, but "luckily" hit a tree or post at 90mph instead. Where, if the car breaks, you have to get out and wrench on it all by yourself with nothing but a hovering TV helicopter to cheer you on. Find me one racing venue where when you roll your car, the spectators turn your ass over and you keep racing.

Those arrogant wheel to wheel guys have *nothing* on rally drivers.
