WRC Testing

[User]

I have a question: in the C4, can they see telemetry and stuff like that? 'Cause I don't see a display.

Oh yes!!

Atkinson was here with both the Imprezas, the 06 and the the 07, for a comparative test with the same tyres (Subaru tested last year on those roads in the centre of Sardinia with the Impreza 06 but of course it used Pirelli tyres).

Some friends of me were there but they couldn't know how the differences about the cars performances was....

anyone knows which is the utility of the spotlight that appears in some photos? In the front left area of the car. Here you can see:



I think is some kind of sensor to measure paramaters like speed, ground height, etc... Am I right?

Strange.. never seen it before... measure road-temperature ? surface texture ? (hmm why is it placed inline with the front-wheel)

[rallymaster]

I would expect its a ground speed radar

is this only picture where you can see this light or are there any others?

Has anyone heard if any teams are testing in Haslemoen test camp in Norway iether private ore factory as both Subaru and Stobbart are testing i Sweden even if the test camp is free?

I don´t know what the lights is, but also Xsara test car have them on summer 2005 Rally Finland tests. On front and rear of car.

The correct answer is ground height...
(all teams use these in some tests)
