    I imagine the 'full factory' effort at Dakar next year will have Red Bull all over it too.

    Below WRC all those cars are for 'customer racing' purposes.

    It's not core for Ford, and matters less that it's not a current car anymore.

    I think you can build one in a week if you have the chassis prepared.

    I can't remember where I read it, but I remember someone saying that the huge time is in the preparation of the bodyshell.

    Malcolm was only 'chasing' Tanak to drive up the price to Toyota and Hyundai so he gets his money back quicker!

    He's the clown that was there when they decided to leave. So he clearly didn't do a good enough job last time.
