Urgh, the Porsche news is ridiculous: according to Tuthill they sent the paperwork in May and it's still not approved.

I can tell you that Porsche is not very spectacular car on humid gravel. It is pretty slow and I would say it is not exciting for me. It is completely different story on tarmac.

Did you see Richard testing the car on Gravel then?
Anyway i'm just about to set off for Wales, 4 nights in the car should be fun. Can't wait to see the worlds best in action once again, been planning filming locations for a couple of weeks now, so fingers crossed it all works out!Twitter - @Rallycameraman

Tuthill 997 on gravel looks pretty good to me...
Also, how come a Porsche 997 GT3 was OK to run on gravel in Finland ??

The white one looks great, from this angle at least. One of the very few cars I have liked in gravel outfit.

It will be down to a particular part that the TUthill car runs that the other doesn't and hasn't been homologated. The irony is that the company that Tuthill use also supplied Citroen WRT and have had 9 championships as a result. There's a rumour going around that the cost of rebuilding/gassing a damper was costing thousands, which was a factor in another top preparation outfit looking to develop their own...although there's a further rumour that they weren't exactly above board about doing that either.
Like I say, all hearsay and conjecture, and I've heard two different sides of the story too.You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

Nonsense indeed when you even yourself admit they cite other publications… I wish them well but at the moment I don’t see them adding any value writing the same articles but this is my problem ...
