    Just read a rumour that Reno are going to build an 1,6 turbo engine for R3 class. Expected homologation date is 1 July 2014 (just one year ahead).

    They seem to be having some fight with Citroen, don't they First the Twingo in R2, now the payback in R3T for the overshadowed R3C Clio

    Very sorry to see NA engines go in all classes, but that is life.
    So back to karting or boatsport to get the right sound picture.

    So maybe we need to get a class in rally where they use motorcycle engines that revs 15000 +

    Actually at the Viru Rally which took place on Friday and Saturday. The car was there more as a exhibit.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    In order to promote the entry of R-GT cars in FIA rallies, with immediate effect tuners will be permitted to develop cars, in accordance with the criteria defining eligible cars. The FIA will issue a technical passport, allowing the car to be eligible for events accepting R-GT cars.

    and

    From 2015, classes R1, R2 and R3 will be permitted to use super-charged engines, in line with the evolution of series engines.

    Does this mean that Technical Passports are issued to individual cars, and non homologated cars could get a Technical Passport under R-GT Rules?
