Chaps and chapesses, I wanted to share something that I have been working on for some time – Lanica Rally 037 is one of my all-time favourite completion cars (you might have noticed a 037 theme to my avatar) and ever since it ended its rally career I have been asking myself how would a potential successor look like - 30 years on I have a design that I am happy with and would like to share here. Will it ever be built? Don’t know, I’ve never been any good at finding the budgets required to do engineering projects of that magnitude, while doing it at kit car level (no disrespect to this field by the way) is not something I currently intend to do. Either way, the project was/is a great fun and anything further from now one is a bonus.

Nice project NickRally. It’d be brilliant to see a modern 037 hitting the road, just like Michael Stoschek and MAT are managing to do with the New Stratos (http://www.manifatturaautomobilitori...s-limited-run/). You should present your project to them or to Key Sport guys, probably the current major authority on Lancia rally cars rebuild (http://www.keysport.it/). Good luck mate!

Hi Rally Power, thanks for the encouragement, it is well received.
Talking about MAT, they are a great place to do such projects, although finding the budget is still up to me . I actually met with them at the Geneva Motorshow in March and we had a good chat where they confirmed that small projects like the ones mentioned are right up their street.
Thanks for the other link, I will have a good look there.

Why are WRC promoting Portugal with old San Remo (and 1000 Lakes) footage?

because the average lobotomised wrc fan who considers rally radio to be decent and pays for wrc+ has no clue....

I need a drink, I spoke to 2017 Aussie Rally Champion Nathan Quinn about competing in NZ Rally champs and who he thinks will win in Rally Portugal. Somehow Aliens came into the conversation. Actually maybe I need a double. Check out the podcast here.

Hi, guys! Maybe anyone have Opel Kadett E homologation book for N group (A group also would be good too)? And maybe could share it?
