I admit that I don't know exactly the R3T regulations but I would be surprised if there wasn't any form of boost limiting.

If You want to limit power You need restrictor and max rpm. By limiting boost You limit torque, not power (the boost limit is used anyway).

You can't stay with naturally aspirated engines forever since nearly nobody is producing them these days and nobody is interested in giving them any promotion (aside of maybe Mazda which is not...

True. Still I don't like it at all.

Frankly I don't understand at all why R3 cars have TC allowed.

I have a hard time to believe in 480 Nm for R3T engine. That would be more than R5 cars...

Is traction control even allowed? If so it can be an advantage for sure.

It might be shocking but downsizing will probably hit the 911 too... The future will show but don't throw the info away just because it sounds silly...

That's confusing statement ;) Toyota is without crew and Citroën with crew. In the tables both have minimum allowed weight acc. to the regulations which is 1080 kg (w/o crew) for R3C (Toyota) and...

This one is the true GT-86 R3 from Toyota Motorsport :)

These figures are pretty old and I believe granted with stock fuel. I don't know real recent numbers with racing fuel.

Zero car may not be homologated.

Anyway... 242 Hp and 480 Nm ???

One thing from the article which took my attention - Renault sold 373 Clio R3!

I did the same mistake few weeks a go and was corrected as well ;)

There is no 3-door new Clio.

Thnaks!

I'm not sure but I think that it's hydraulic for Kubica.

R3 cars don't have hydraulic gear-shifting. They use pneumatic or electric system. I don't know if that is forbidden for WRC cars too. Citroën is the only one in R3 who keeps using it. Honda/JAS...

There was a rumor that Toyota was preparing GT-86 R3C, so was a rumor about Ford Fiesta R3T. Nothing officially confirmed though.

Good question. You can guess for which manufacturer the rules were changed :)

It's Renault, the new Clio RS is equipped with 1618 ccm engine.



Yes
