Rally2 (ex-R5) News

However I think he had some top three times as well. Don´t remember what he said if he had some problems but I do think he had. Sound and speed looked good on SS1 though.

It definitely matched and beat WRC machinery when it did the Skillinge 500 past my parent's house! Although Skillinge 500 is not a championship event so you can't really expect the same kind of competition.

Still, he did look "careful" where I saw him so maybe it has some potential!

In previous events Johansson was able to match other R5 cars, maybe he got some problems in Uppsala.

The little Mirage seems more impressive in video...https://youtu.be/gcHGH-bct_4

Yes, he was 3rd, 4th and 5th before dropping to 8th position

Not sure if people were aware or not but it appears the Mirage is also entered into the National portion of Rally GB.

I'm guessing it's the same car? Looking forward to seeing it if so.

Does Mark Cronje driving Fiesta R5 from VW Rally onwards..?

[Andre Oliveira]

No, it is the same S2000 with facelifted front.

"We're back!
Whilst we haven't posted anything here for the past few months, we've been extremely busy. Since our last post we have been flat out developing and testing the car and the first batch of customer cars is nearing completion.
Part of the test programme has included a number of rallies in Sweden. In fact, this weekend the car will be seen competing in the final round of the Swedish Rally Championship, which is based in and around the town of Uppsala.
Behind the scenes, we've also been working on eligibility and putting together documentation which will allow the car to be assessed and accredited. Full specifications and prices will be published soon and we are delighted to confirm that we have already received lots a considerable number of firm orders from customers around the world.
There's some exciting announcements to be made in the coming weeks, so keep an eye open for more news soon!"

FIA homologation ahead? It would be great!

Me too! I suppose this Graham Middleton is the same that drove for Toyota GB in the late 80's and rallyed Hyundai's cars during the 00's in BTRDA champs. Lots of experience.

Osian Pryce will run Mirage R5 at Cambrian

That's a really interesting call, wonder if he's considering running it in the top class of BRC next year. With the right tyres and someone of his ability it might just work...
