Still no Article 256, does that mean they can not homologate, or are they ready just not published to the public ?
Guessing we will not see any GT cars in FIA rallies before 2012. Pity really, would be a fun spice !

Maybe IRC should allow an interim GT class in 2011, to get the beautiful cars below out in a cup?

Is there no movement at all in this class ?
Many people are waiting for homologated cars to buy, but still no factories or tuning firms that I have seen has done any homologations yet. Why ?

There is no such limit in the rules. Only restrictor size dependent on vehicle weigh.

Mirek; What is missing since no one have homologated cars for R-GT yet ?
Do you think there will be any cars ready for 2012, and will FIA have a series for them ?

I do not think that it is attractive enough for manufacturers to homologate a car that fights only for a class win or drivers that is driving just for fun. I believe that a RGT car would be much more expensive compared to R2 and R3 so there wouldn’t be a big market for them. If they had a own championship it could be different (RGT ERC).
Btw, it would intetersting to know which countries have a class or championship for GT cars and what kind of rules are in use.“Don’t eat the yellow snow” Frank Zappa

Lotus to launch new Exige-based rally car
I am not sure if this has been discussed here before, but Lotus is apparently making a new Exige as a rally car, to be presented at the Frankfurt car show in September:
