Well, it's about time someone mentioned it
In case you don't know who Chris Duplessis is, he is by far the fastest 2wd rallyist in North America (and even his competitors will agree). Duplessis was given a HUGE opportunity this year to go compete in the WRC Academy (a spec racing series utilizing 170hp sequential gearbox equipped Fiesta's) from Ford, Rally-America, Team O'Neil, and rallystream.tv.
While I had personally kept my expectations in check (he is really competing against the best of the best!) so far he has managed to climb to 4th place overall in the Academy against 12 other drivers
You can follow his stage times at wrc.com here:
