I know Ramona Karlsson is trying to find sponsors for a season in RallyX but IMO I don't think she'll find
enough sponsors to secure a seat for the World Championship so I think She'll have to settle for national series
or possible Euro RX championship.
In Sweden everything involving 4 wheels and an engine is regarded as a threat to the polar bears. She will get nothing...
Thanks for that. I was just surprised that they turned the i20 Supercar around so quickly. The cars are fairly tightly-packaged, so I was curious as to the scope for development.Quote:

And for those who dont know it VW is providing a lot of the behind the scenes infrastructure and funding for WRC, look at the organisers cars, posters. I hear even the radio receives a subsidy :-)

@MJW
Hopefully VW sticks around for a while in WRC. Or before they leave 2-3 new manufacturers arrive and we have a good old battle royale between manufacturers. Maybe the future comes from China?
As for World RX: if it really catches on (which I for one know it did last year here in SWE - got sort of a breath of fresh air and new life) then the manufacturers like VW will go there.
I'm optimistic about it! :bounce:
PS We're on our way to 1000 posts...

Well that's a bombshell.
What former WRC/IRC drivers could be heading for RX?
In french mag' Auto Hebdo, Andersson said he was looking for Rallycross World Championship seat.
I think Sandell is doing it too, but in USA.
