    Agree with Mirek. I would yust add to this as I saw Abarth 124 driving in Monza rally show and it left to me a positive impression. It must a real RWD toy, turbo engine gives enough power for sliding and some tyre burning, even the sound is not bad...of course, in terms of speed it has no chance compare to faster R2 cars.
    I hope Italian guys will buy some cars so that the cup will be a successful one.

    That’s a really low expectation for a 1.8T/300hp/1000kgs RGt. Honestly, I’m hoping to see them being faster than any R2/R3 and even getting between the slower R5’s. Btw, I believe that in the price is included a gravel kit, as it’s expected the Italian Cup will get at least one of the CIR gravel rallys.

    How can a 300hp RWD vehicle be slower than a 190hp FWD vehicle?Mind you,the weight is about the same.Worse tires?Worse suspension?I don't think so..The 124 should be significantly faster than R2 vehicles on tarmac at least.

    Pretty normal that 250-300hp RWD cars gets beaten by 180 hp R2's. Difference here in Norway is usually 1-2 min on a 80km rally.

    You have gravel in Norway. On asphalt 300 Hp RWD doesn't have signifficant problems with traction and at least theoretically it shall be much faster than R2. RWD on circuits are usually faster than FWD.
