Did you notice the wheels on the ROC car?

Sorry if this has already been posted....

In the latest issue of AutoWeek (I got it yesterday) there is an article about the recent Race Of Champions competition. I found 1 photo particularly interesting.

One of the cars they use is called a ROC Car. Check out the wheels.



Sorry I couldn't find a better photo -- the photo in AW shows the wheels more clearly.

Are they Fuchs? I can't see how they would be, but they sure look like Fuchs wheels.

Well, I'll be fuched. They are!

Yes, they are. Those ROC buggies have used Fuchs for the last several years.

I prefer the other far more attractive cars that have been part of the event, however...

Schumi, ROC 2004:

So they really are Fuchs!? Wow. I guess the fact that "old" Fuchs wheels were chosen for such an international event is a strong endorsement for the wheels.

Re: that pic of flyin' Schumi.

Not to take anything away from him, but it's a lot easier to drive a Ferrari like that when it's either not your car, or if you make the kind of money he does (or both).

So true. No doubt Todt and Montezemolo would have traded a title or two if only he had been easier on their equipment. No responsibilty whatsoever, that kid.
