Turbo engines are not really suitable for RWD cars. Without anti-lag it's very difficult to drive them and even with it I don't think it's the best You can use. Naturally aspirated unit or a one with supercharger is for sure better for RWD.Quote:

How can you say what you did?
And the way you say it it SEEMS that it could be misunderstood that you're say turbos are suitable for FWD, and again that seems confusing...
Too much Pils?
What I meant is the turbo lag, especially with high pressure turbochargers without ALS.
But on the other hand the drivers love driving RWD cars...... So maybe a cup will make them sell?
By that I assume you think it isn't any more?Quote:

What a change from what used to be a great event :(
Hmm, not great is it? A shame, the move to the BRC so far hasn't worked. During the ANCRO years, it was a 'must see' event - and I always drove down from the NorthWest to watch. Didn't last year, and I doubt I will this year.
Problem is, without the old ANCRO series, where can it go?
Obviously the problem isn't in cost of cars, although maybe some people will suggest to use only R1 next year...
