Hi chaps. Quick bit of 'market research' help needed here.

Basically in the UK, rally cars on events that caters for non homologated rally cars. Can you give me an answer to each question:

1. Country - UK, governing body is MSA (Motor Sports Association)

2. What size engine is the rally car allowed - 25% engine size increase over what the original road car sold with. ie Corsa 1.6 can have 2 litre, MK2 Escort can have 2.5 litre engine.

3. Is engine allowed to be of different manufacturer as the car it is in? - Yes

4. Can bodywork be modified with arches, wings etc - Yes at moment, some rules coming in for end of 2012 to prevent some of it called K37 rules.

5. Sequential box allowed if if manufacturer did not homologate - Yes

Over to you guys, if you can copy, paste and edit above text so the format follows...
Thanks guys :)

Oi Nav, you want to get interviewed for a friends online magazine?
We worked over a similar set of questions only broader to try and see worldwide trends--good and bad---and try to see if there are bright ideas elsewhere to help us poor Yanquis one day begin to gain some popularity---and have more than 20-40 cars on average at events.

Hi

I am not sure if I know enough for an interview. As seen I only know the UK rules.

Lets see some more views from other members for France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Greece, Italy etc...
