Next week M-Sport wil reveil details about the Fiesta Regional Rally Car. The S1600T RCC will much like the Fiesta S2000, with a smaller wing then the WRCar. And probarly a smaller restrictor (30mm >33mm) ? Patrick Snijers claimed that his Mini Countryman S1600T had less hp. so his version was a RCC ?
Basically it’s the same car as the WRC Fiesta except smaller rear wing, different front buffer, heavier fly wheel, different front brakes and a smaller restrictor which is 30 mm diameter at the moment.
I don’t know if the fly wheel is actually different in WRC and RCC because it would be a quite big job to replace the fly wheel when switching between WRC and RCC.
Ford would be then the first brand with both S2000 NA and S1600T cars.
Everyone knew it would be :DQuote:

Good for him.
that is a pure devil worshiping band{lucifer,satan}and i dont know how oliveira managed to leave the cult and join the wrc,maybe he wants to recruit more members from the rally fans.Quote:

LOL...well with his driving skills i think he must use different ways of conversion...LOL
I am very disappointed to read this, especially as Meeke is one of my favourite drivers. Does anyone know if he was to blame for this or was it another freak error that we saw in Italy?Quote:

Petter lost on of his sponsor, which will jeopardise the last rally of the season.
Google translated
If I understood right, he also said that in 2012 he will not run his team... right?Quote:

Who cares about age, as long as he's valuable.
+1

that would be a lot sooner without telefonicaQuote:

no reason for anyone to support him now....was a good publicity trick last year.
