Check-out the today updated entrylist of rallye du Touquet(held next week) :D
http://www.rallye-letouquet.com/fr/g...e-des-engages/
Promising battle in R3 and Kris Princen will have a seriously hard task against Cédric Robert or Marc Amourette if he wants to win the group :eek:
In R1 entrylist see the number of Renault Twingos !!!! :crazy:
164 entrants and 20 in historics - an impressive startlist.
30 R1s is a flying start for that class, shows the ned for a cheap entry class car !
I must say congrats to Renault. They again built a best-seller. These guys know what they are doing, we need them to build a top-class car.
Don't forget MauffreyQuote:

But it's a nice pleasure to see a so long entrey list that means this sport will not die quickly.
Rallye Terre des Alpes Durance was canceled?

So Belgian Ghislain de Mevius will start his "french campaign" there :)
if only those amazing terre rallye´s wouldnt be so far away from germany, i would watch them all! but i´m going to see auxerrois and langres, both are around 700/800 km from my home, thats ok :)
Couldn't believe my eyes when I read this, from Autohebdo website: Alexandre Bengué back in tarmac championship from Lyon-Charbonnières(in april)at the wheels of...the Prodrive New Mini WRC !!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
That would be awesome!
I came only sunday on stages :D Interesting race, and czech guys were very popular on roads :p Nice victory for Bayard for his first time with a Celica :cool:Quote:

Start Rallye du Touquet early this afternoon, start of Rallye Pays du Gier this evening...both results to be followed on http://www.patricksoft.fr/ :cool:
Three stages are running at the Touquet, and Eric Brunson is leading ahead of Pierre Roché and Dany Snobeck ;)
In the Trophée Michelin Jean-Sebastien Vigion is leading ahead of Julien Maurin and Gilles Nantet...
In the GrR three Citroën DS3 ahead of the Clios(Kris Princen can't do anything against Matthieu Arzeno, Cédric Robert and Marc Amourette for the moment) :bounce:
Megane is doing his first stages. Not impressed for now.
It's faster than the Evo 9 though!!! :DQuote:

You're right, I didn't pay attention, it's fastest in the N4 class, which is not bad.
Megane r4 with a good driver slower than plenty of clio r3/ds3s and in 2 stages slower from an evo 9(NOT evo 9 R4) with unknown driver.Nice.....
It is not R4 but N4. R4 class is for 4WD cars only.
This is not Megane R4, but N4.
as expected a nice cup car and nothing more...
@ Mirek & Haco sorry guys my mistake.Even for a N4 is too slow.
What is the problem? The Megane has just run 3 stages and is leading N4. It is a new car, it will get faster with time.
Coditions not ideal for such cars:

2WD with most power, so I guess not easiest to drive.
