Still considering this is his first time in Group N car and with using pace note, I must say this result shows a great effort by Travis.
Now question is how far he can go from here. He is scheduled to contest Argentina and GB this year and will enter full PWRC for 2008 & 2009. So by the end of 2009, will he be ready to move on to the top level??? It would be great for US rallying scene to have an American driver in the top level, and WRC will welcome more attention from USA!! ....and 2009 is coincide with the end of Petter's contract with Subaru, too ;)
So what do you guys think??? I know it's way too early to draw any conclusion, but Pastrana in SWRT in 2010???
