The Subaru seems to be fast too, BF tires should be a big improvement for the team especially on tarmac.
And what a great Sound !Quote:

But the snow test in france was not for sweden but Mont Carlo, don't think theyl use tarmac setup in sweden
No I'm talking about the sound from the respons system and pressure relief (blow off)Quote:

The sound at 1.37 when turning around. Same on 7.10 and 8.21

Does anyone know when Ford will be testing next?
In that case Loeb would win every by three minute. You can think is it realistic or not. Maybe they were just joking. On the other hand it's not the first time when the new car is said to be superfast without proper basement: few years ago it was said that 307 was 26 sec faster than 206 in the same 30 km distance. In reality 307 was just narrowly faster.Quote:
