Your thread title is somewhat confusing. The Rally America Championship and the USRC are two competely separate championships.

Not to start a bun fight here, but the Rally America Championship is the premier championship in the USA. The Fiesta ST series comprises RA events. It is the championship that David Higgins will be driving in next year for Subaru.

The USRC is a step down from the RA championship. An excellent series, but not one that attracts the top drivers and teams.

I mean that a Fiesta R2 is ready to compete in the RallyCar’s U.S. Rally Championship and the USRC, isn’t it?
