Setright Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Yep, World Rally Cross. Either that, or it's the Australian spelling for "Rex" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 How do you pronounce it: Dubbleyou are eks?I had an Aussie telling me about the new "Wahrex" a few years back. Is this an Aussie/Euro pronunciation thing? Juan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtsmiths Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Judging from all the ones that rich local kids have totalled around here, it's pronounced (and means) 'wrecks'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operose Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Judging from all the ones that rich local kids have totalled around here, it's pronounced (and means) 'wrecks'. have to agree with that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 It clearly is not meant to be an acronym - it is an initialism. both are forms of abreviation. By definition, acronyms are pronounceable and often words (not always) which already have a meaning. NASA is an acronym NAACP is an initialism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronym Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishy Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I've been finding that sometimes I get really lazy with pronouncing WRX and it comes out more like "dubbleyareks". Weird that I was just thinking about that before I saw this thread. Maybe even weirder that I was thinking about it at all... :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerFahrer Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Are you sure about Cross? I always thought it was World Rally Xperimental. I could be wrong though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Are you sure about Cross? I always thought it was World Rally Xperimental. I could be wrong though... That is what I gathered from the huge thread on nasioc awhile back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
