    As for WRX - if its good enough for a 9-time WRC champion...

    Nice car!

    Looks like Prodrive follow Ford by going up a class from Clio to Megane.

    Topi announced as the second driver at EKS. Strikes me as strange to have all the ceremony around announcing a driver, postpone the announcement and then quietly tell everyone that it's the same guy as last season. I wonder if they were hoping to be lining up a big name and then it fell through, forcing them to renegotiate with Topi.

    Megane looks good, sounds like they're aiming for a first event at Loheac with a full season next year. Be interesting to see if they bring in another driver to have a two man team, can't see Chicherit making too many waves on his own.
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    I thought the same. Either someone big fell through or they think that's a good SoMe strategy. Silly either way.

    That Megane looks good, let's hope they get a fast guy for the second seat.

    Very good for the sport to have this project waiting in the wings. Interested to see how much works Renault involvement we can expect. Or really whether this is just completely Prodrive with no manufacturer cooperation. Let's see.

    Smells like they have been given the rights to use the I.P. and not much else at this point and have everything crossed that a good performance will see further $$$ from Renault.

    Few bits of news over the last few days. Chicherit running a Clio Supercar in a number of events this year in lead up to the Megane.
    Timo Scheider announced pretty much full time with Max Pucher's team, with the exception of Lydden when Andrew Jordan will fill in for him.

    Will be interesting to see how Jordan gets on, last time he was in a Fiesta at Lydden he finished on the podium, although things have moved on quite a bit since then and I think the competition is stronger.
