Xtreme Rally Car - Brasil

[Sulland]

XRC RALLY (http://www.xrcbrasil.com.br/)

Here is the site for the new car class in Brasil, ala the Maxi Rally car in Argentina.

Maybe more national championships need something like this to get cheaper and rawer cars to draw press and sponsors?

Do anyone know the price of a XRC?

[Co-driven]

It's been said that the price is around R$200.000 (something around 120.000 dollars). Next month the car will make it's debut, on Rally Erechim, first round of Brazilian Rally Championship and second round of FIA South American Championship. In that opportunity, we'll be able to compare the performance of the car with the Argentine's Maxi Rally and the regular N4 cars (although the XRC will run in a separate class in our National Championship).

Cool, keep us posted G.Morales. Will this rally have online results?

[Co-driven]

Yes, it'll have online results. The official website was launched yesterday: Rally Erechim (http://rallyerechim.com.br/)

This is the biggest rally in Brazil and, for sure, one of the biggest of South America. It's something incredible. I'll be there competing on Class 6, defending the South American title. My father will be competing too, he'll be the co-driver of one of the XRC cars already made, with Mauricio Neves as the driver.

Is this class alive and kicking or did the initiativ die?
