At least the proto is very good looking :up:
That Proton is beautiful :up:
Most S2000 cars I've seen are absolutely gorgeous, with the possible exception of the Pug 207 - the front end looks weird.
I think the best-looking rally cars are the most rugged-looking ones.
Anyway, can't wait for the S2000 WRC. More manufacturers, and cars which actually resemble road cars, it'll be great.
I agree, if, and it is if, the public can relate the Rally car to the road car it might help. I've never seen a Focus or C4 on a forecourt with a huge rear wing on. No guarantee of course but it can only help.Quote:

It did wonders for our national championship and the past year we saw a few cars running dead heats.The competion is fierce and fast and the people are coming back to spectate.It is maybe that they sound like rallycars again with the high revving engines and the sequential boxes.
And for the guys that think N4 are faster. N4 struggle to get into the top 5 and it was N12B Prodrive cars running.I'm all for S2000 and the fact that there is plenty manufactures showing interst in S2000 must show that there is a market for s2000. :)
Whoa that passage at 3'33" is really .... dangerous ! Nearly rolled the car ... who's driving ?_? I like him xDQuote:
