    now it's combination of plastic and some kind of other material - aluminium? Not sure exactly as I didn't open new spec - manufacturer says they will examine all which seems to be faulty, so I'm sending them back to UK.

    Thanks. I'm asking because I work with plastics and there is a really reasonable change of dimensions with temperature. Normally alluminium prolongs with the temperature approximattely twice more than steel but plastics around 10x more than steel.

    Watched the latest Irish Tarmac round last night and the DS3 R5 of Keith Cronin was again having all kinds of problems...

    His chances in the Irish and British series is being ruined by that car.

    Keith uses his own car in the ITRC , the car that Keith used on the first round of the BRC was the car Craig used to win the Circuit. It would seem that his problems all started when he damaged the car on the circuit but the ITRC is best 5 out of 7 rounds to count with the last round in Cork having bonus points as well so that series is far from sorted , as for the Mid Wales stages he just had a bad run which after all was his first run on gravel in a fair while and he opted for Killarney instead of the Pirelli so he's sort of gave up on the BRC anyway.

    With renting teams it is very difficult to have correct chassis numbers. Especially when chassis number is not always fixed so registration plate...
