    This is bad news. I want to know more about Tajima, he's the driving force behind Suzuki rallying. I hope he hasn't been sacked. Without him I think it's game over unfortunately.
    There was some mention of a Suzuki S2000 car that was gearing up for a debut, possibility in the hands of Monster himself, at Rally NZ.

    So Suzuki gives up this easy? Once "monster" talked about "winning the constructors championship" at the beggining of the year everybody knew that he whould be dissapointed. and here we are now, Suzuki has scored 3 points in five events and their reliabitity still sucks like a vacuumcleaner. With this attitude of giving up so easy i don't think it will go so well for them further this year either unfortunally.

    *Cue tirades of abuse from people who just want to see a few more cars on the entry list regardless of whether they're never going to finish the rally or whether the driver is going to throw them into the scenery just about every time*
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    I think the Citroen BX 4TC and (to a lesser extent) VW Golf G60 programmes provide quite strong opposition, to be honest.

    i agree with NOT
    it s a pitty for the drivers,but that s not a wrc level shows suzuki.
    after so much testing and impossible to finish a stage without major proplems.
    if there wasn t super rally i doubt if they had completed more than 100 km both cars till now

    Suzuki still has a chance, hey have shown very little, but something with reasonable times, only when they get the cars running.
    Lets give them some more credit.

    Nissan case with the Sunny GTI_R was much the case of Suzuki, but Nissan was aiming to win the championshipwith a high tech car (probably too advance for the moment, with active differentials and lot of the then common electronics).

    Seat also won a junior champ (F2 at that time) and when step onto WRC level did not achieve good results (and yes I remember Gardenmeister 3rd position in NZ)
