I have loaned this from the forum here: http://www.rallye-info.com/forum.asp...&new=14&page=1
"In France and Spain there is there is from 2008 a class called R3T, which is R3 turbo cars, costing very little, but obviously only having 2WD. Seeing some of the R3 cars I wouldn't be surprised if these low budget R3T's would beat S2000 cars sometimes at least on asphalt."
I have googled it but can not find anything on it - does anyone else know of this class in the two countries ?

Sounds interesting. It looks like they want to use the most common hot hatches. The large majority of those cars use turbos. It is particullarly logical since more strict emission standards leads to large using of turbos in road cars. I have nothing against. It would be good to have a chance to use all those hot hatches and some biger cars as well on stages. There are a looot of them:
Opel Astra OPC
Opel Corsa OPC
Peugeot 207 RC
VW Golf GTI
Mazda 3 MPS
Seat Leon Cupra
etc.
I'm interested in the regulations. I think that those cars should be strictly gr.N without big modiffications so as not to be too fast and too expensive.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

Interview with Aaron Burkart
The german Internet-Site of 1aSport.de had an Interview with Aaron Burkart, here are some extracts:
question: last week the jwrc startet in its season. what was the spirit like?
burkart: the spirit was simply great! i have never given that much autographs before. but it also gave me great pleasure to see that many people with the same enthusiasm for this sport as myself.
question: at the end you achieved fourth place. are you satisfied with the result?
keeping in mind that we have did not know the route and first time suffered low engine power because of the high altitude the result was all right. nevertheless the fourth place is always ungrateful, but this year there are more rallies where we focus on podium places.
full interview at: http://www.1asport.de/sport/Motorspo...pn_75103N.html (i can translate more if you want me to)
