Re: R3 Cars
R3 cars don't have hydraulic gear-shifting. They use pneumatic or electric system. I don't know if that is forbidden for WRC cars too. Citroën is the only one in R3 who keeps using it. Honda/JAS abandoned that because of low reliability of their system.

Re: R3 Cars
Thanks for that, I thought they were hydraulic system as the old WRCars. Do you know if Kubica's system is hydraulic (slowed down) or is it similar to the R3T system?

Re: R3 Cars
I'm not sure but I think that it's hydraulic for Kubica.

Re: R3 Cars
Could M-Sport put the R5 engine into the R2 chassis, and class it as R3T?
What is needed to change on engine and chassis for them to make a R3T Fiesta?

If I understand correctly another year before we see the R3 in action. No word on the R5Post your own splits on the net: find RallyStopwatch on the Google Play Store.

Re: R3 Cars
An RWD R3 should be entertaining to watch, I hope some other manufacturers will pick up the idea too
Unfortunately, the model is not really suitable for R5 - if Toyota ever wanted to build such a car, they would rather choose a sub-compact.
