Sweet. It will be interesting to see how PG goes to make up the points differential with Craig (I hope we can have a good race as PG as missed a few events now).

I don’t know if how familiar you are with FIA web site but I put it here anyway.

Regulations (WRC and regional championship sporting regulations etc.)
FIA Rally Championships

Appendix J
Appendix J (2012) to the International Sporting Code

Article 253, safety equipment
http://argent.fia.com/web/fia-public...%282012%29.pdf

Article 255A
http://argent.fia.com/web/fia-public...03.2012%29.pdf

5.7.3 Bodywork, interior

The WRC cars also have minimum interior dimensions.

This would be a question to dimviii

Try to google for some answers.

If you google for “building a wrc team” (don’t put the quotation marks) andf you will find a link Mini WRC team that open a acrobat document. There could be some information for you.

Try also “setting up a wrc team”.

Youtube, “How to build a WRC car”.

I assume car buyers.

Manufacturers have racing teams who build and run the cars in the championship. The racing teams are manufacturers own teams (Citroen, VW) or the racing activities are outsourced to a private company like M-Sport (Ford) or Prodrive (MINI). They rent or sell the cars to teams and privateers depending on the manufacturers/ WRC teams policy.

Am i right in this being a proper stage rally?
Shame it's on the same weekend as WRC Germany or else i guess we could have seen some of today's top drivers in them.

A question for the Finnish members. Can someone tell me who Timo Kankkunen is?
I noted that he is listed as a participant in this years midnattsolsrallyt.

Well, that´s just a wrong spelling. It should be Juha Kankkunen. Even Hannu Mikkola and Mikko Hirvonen is said to participate in the MSr 2012 (Midnight Sun Rally) in Sweden. July 18-21th.

As i said i've read the start list so I know that they are coming.
However i'm pretty sure that Timo is not Juha since he is driving a ford for KonnMK and not a Toyta for TTH and
also because Juha pulled out due to scheduling conflicts so he wouldn't be listed anyway.

**Rallyper** · 16th May 12, 18:01

OK, Maybe so. In the first place Juha should come and that´s why I presumed it was Juha in the start list, not Timo.

What was on his schedule?
