Mind that a used R5 will cost the same, and you can use it everywhere, and in international events, etc etc. RFEDA push this regs to atract some new manufacters that don't have R5, but this it's not their salvation. Probably you'll see a Mirage N5 along the way as well, but I don't think that makes like Seat f.e. will be in the championship anytime soon...Quote:

Spanish tuners continue N5/MR tarmac development. RMC entered their 208 as 0 car on a local event and ARVidal were testing the Swift in Portugal.

3 or 5 doors..?

I think that one in the picture is the Baratec built car, which is based on the 5 door model available in Argentina. In these cars, the rear doors aren't used, there is no way of opening them.
But I've seen some news recently that the Spanish team is building a 3-door model with the same specs.
Yep. 208 2 door on his way and plans to make also a N5/MR based on a Fiesta body.

This weekend's Rally Catamarca (fourth round of Argentina National Championship and third round of FIA Codasur Championship) will be a good opportunity to compare the new Maxi Rally turbo with the R5.
Gustavo Saba and Diego Dominguez will be there and Luciano Pretoria and Geronimo Padilla (two good Argentine drivers) will be there with the MR turbo.
