Ford and Toyota running S2000 in Australia. The Ford team is run by Jason Bright's Britek V8 Supercar team with some very good rally people involved, they are building Fiesta's with the help of MSport. Toyota have built an old shape Corolla and Neal Bates will run that until the release of the new shape later in the year when both Neal and Simon Evans will run the S2000 cars.

Reigning champion Simon Evans will remain in the Gp. N(P) Toyota until the S2000's car has proven it's speed & reliability. Neal Bates will drive a Gp. N(P) that has been converted to S2000 initially until the 2007 body shape car is ready by Round 3 Rally of Canberra, close to the team's headquarters.
Ford will run 2 Fiesta's for Michael Guest & Darren Windus. Hopefully they will be fast straight from the box, unlike the MkIII Escort, sorry I mean RWD Focus.
I may be mistaken but I thought there is some Italian influence or heritage in the Fiestas.
The Ford Fiesta S2000 project is interesting - Please keep us posted on websites and Pictures of that car as they appear on Australian Sites !!
Yeh I too will be very interested in any info on the Fiesta S2000 please....
Is the plan to have the Fiesta ready for round 1, 31 March ??
Fiesta's will be ready for he first round.

Interesting to see if M Sport use any of the Oz knowledge if they decide to build a Fusty S2000
Check out this footage from Toyota's S2000 testing in Australia.

Is there much difference between the original Toyota Bates car and the newer S2000
