    Just saw the Subaru test with BF, the car seemed to have 500 instead of 300 bhp. Pretty fast!
    In anticipation of the next corner...

    The sound at 1.37 when turning around. Same on 7.10 and 8.21
    Yes thats what i meant, you can hear it in this video from cyprus in the first section. It appears when the response system is turned of.

    It's not just an impression. Forget the 300 bhp legend. Actually, all top WRC cars are around 400 bhp now. That's also why they are so impressive to watch.

    BTW, I want to underline this: these cars are fantastic to drive and to watch (4WD, high torque, power). All occasional drivers recognize that a WRC is one of the most exciting car to drive on earth: Dindo Capello, Andy Priaulx, etc.

    The sad part of this story is that I think that most people will realize how great the WRC cars and the current technical regulations are only if this category disappears one day (I hope it won't happen!).

    That C4 is one of the best looking WRC -cars ever!

    Not too many rounds for Suzuki...

    2007 is try out en find the weak parts year, 2008 will be the serious attack on Subaru, Citroen and Ford. And Mitsubishi if their financiel situation is healty enough. And on the several M2 teams.
    And the red/white C4 looks ver good from the frontside , unfortunaly the back is not the best part. Which is the part of the car that the competition will see the most, Loeb and Sordo disappearing in the distance to the podium and champagne/celebration girls .
