No, they really aren't. They are both 'competition vehicles' perhaps, but 'race' and 'rally' are the defining terms for two very different types of cars.

Has "youtube" become synonymous with "online video" the way "xerox" has become synonymous with "copying?" Because if that isn't the case, this isn't really a SLYT post, but a SLDM post.
It is entirely possible that "youtube" is become synonymous with "online video," but I want to make sure we're agreeing this is the case before I start using it like that.

Oh, holy fuck. Clearly this didn't need to be so big a deal, but that doesn't mean that people can't use (admittedly precise) terms correctly:
Race cars= Racing cars (UK term more commonly) = cars that compete against each other directly and are on the track at the same time.
Rally cars = time trial where they compete indirectly with other rally cars against the clock and win by virtue of having the lowest total time rather than being 'first across the line'.

What you're not understanding is that "racing" and "car" are not precise terms, necessarily. The words "racing" and "car" both can be used in their ordinary senses and combined according to the rules of English grammar to form basically semantically compositional phrases.
The fact that motor sport enthusiasts find it useful to draw certain distinctions and use terms in more precise ways than they are normally used does not rob these terms of their ordinary meaning.

Not in strict English language usage, no, which was why I acknowledged I was being pedantic. However, in the context of motor racing they are very much precise terms. They are industry definitions. The clip was, surely you'd agree, within the context of motor racing. These are definitions of different types of car used in competition and, also, differentiates them from 'road cars' (normal cars, to you).
Yes, it's pedantic (assuming you don't respect or care about any of the definitions used in the industry), but the original description was, technically and within context, incorrect. I was attempting to point that out without (and this is possibly going by the wayside) any attempt to put ericb down.

No, but you are being just as pedantic by saying "in ENGLISH, it's fine" by pretending that industry (and widely accepted) standards and definitions don't matter. I was adding information through pedantry, not saying "YOU CAN'T CALL THEM racing cars, THAT'S WRONG!"

Crowd control in many places has historically been a major issue. Central Europe learnt it's lesson (and got an entire level of motorsport banned) in 1985 when many people were killed on a Rally stage in Portugal. People who don't spend their time around these cars have almost no clue where to stand, and where physics dictates the car will go when something goes wrong. Things are very different today than they were some years ago, but not all countries either bother, or can afford, to police the crowd safety dictated by such events as the World Rally Championship. Injuries and issues arise as a direct result. I have seen people standing in astonishingly stupid places, but are determined to do so because they are 'a bit closer to the cars'.
Well. Sometimes 'a bit closer' is 'too close', but some people refuse to learn without direct experience...
the one where the car flips over the bloke looks fake as well. He reacts while it's already over his head!
No matter how you think you will react in such a circumstance, the vast majority of people find it incalculable the way a car reacts when losing control. Their speed of reaction (when they finally work out they are in danger) is mind-bendingly slow to the casual observer. It looked real (and entirely typical) to me. Many, many people react like this.

goodnewsfortheinsane: I was not claiming that a post cannot be good in three letters, merely that I felt this post needs more than the three letters that it had. All "OMG" tells us here is that there is something surprising. If I hadn't been extremely bored, I probably wouldn't have even clicked on the link. I wonder how many interesting links I miss because they've been camouflaged by mystery meat posts. Maybe it's personal preference, but unless our enjoyment of is going to be seriously improved by not knowing anything about the link before we click, I see no reason to provide at least a little info. It doesn't have to be much. In this case, I think I would have been happier if the title of the post ("What the luck") had been the content of the post. Still mysterious, but there's at least something to go on.
And there's certainly nothing wrong with single-link posts. In this case, after watching the video clips (most of which are fantastic, by the way), I wanted to know more about the events depicted. Or maybe a good way to find more of the same kind of clips. I just wanted more. As far as criticisms go, to say that I liked it enough to want more is pretty tame.

In the tennis shot I think the ball is lobbed directly into the receiver's racket and bounces off and successfully over the net without him having to take a swing, resulting in a winning point. No racing or rallying involved.

Yeah, the tennis shot is a block-return of serve that is going well wide until it clips the tape at the top of the net and skews back into court on the server's side, winning the point for the guy that really didn't know much about it.
