Next year should be very interesting in ERC. Peugeot should have got the car working properly by then and I expect Skoda to have tested properly so we can have a real duel for the title!

What are the Maxi Regulations? I can't find a thread on here about them. From the videos I've found I can't tell if they're FWD or 4WD (though I suspect 4WD)

The Maxi Rally cars use a 2.4 Honda engine, four wheel drive transmission from the Subaru Impreza, Modena 6-speed sequential gearbox. Basically what's free to choose is the suspension.
In Rally Argentina what was being said is that talks with Michelle Mouton were held, regarding the homologation of the 1.6 turbo engine. The plan of Mario Barattero, one of the developers of the idea, is to take a car to Europe until the end of this season.
I would prefer if they stayed with the naturally aspirated Honda engine - purely because of the sound :)
