Still much work on the Porsche
Before the start of the Monte Carlo Rally, the Belgian veteran Mark Duez (pictured) explains how and what difficulties had to enable the launch of the first car of the category R-GT, which first appeared on the start of the World Cup. The first start of Belgian and Porsche 996 GT3 RS is not glamorous. 64 th place in the first special stage, Mark Duez barely crawls to 44 th position overall. Obviously the car is not what the Belgians, and the audience is waiting for the new class in the World Rally.
"This car already has a national passport which allows it to compete in the races in Belgium, as happens in other national leagues in Europe. - Explains Duez. - But for his part in the Monte Carlo had to be a passport to the International Automobile Federation (FIA), which was further work on the car. There were many many small changes, but they just take too long. I had to remove the roof to weld the rolcage in front, I had to pour 60 liters foam in each of the two doors, and they are smaller than those of cars from WRC, which made the job very difficult. "
Separately, explains Duez requirements for this class and change in the fuel tank.
"And when it was all over, I had to prove that it was done in the way the FIA ??required to comply with the technical regulations. Technical passport of the federation is 100 pages, a huge document to show that everything is done as are the rules. "
Duez surprised that he was the only competitor who did this, saying that the other drivers or owners of GT cars would hardly have done all this work.
"Many pilots have had success competing in their own countries with Porsche, but the rules of the FIA ??are mostly wise in terms of safety."
Belgian is adamant that in Europe there are many Porsche's, Aston Martin, Nissan and Lotus (no secret that this is the only manufacturer that he recognized in GT) and is of the opinion that these cars have a place in every race asphalt World Series will be at the top of the column.
"I think it will be a lot of fun for the fans, because these cars are old fashion, the sound they truly are quite spectacular and is not slow," concluded Mark Duez.

Another funny story...
Scooby-Doo found a sponsor for Bouffier

It seems almost as a movie script, but the dog of the 35 -year-old Bryan Bouffier is the reason the last two years the French pilot to find a sponsor and takes part in the Monte Carlo Rally .
"This is a very nice story. It all began in 2005 when I had a big dog . Was 80 -pound, like a Scooby - Doo. We called him Achu . Was 80 kg eating only chicken - explains the backstory Bryan Bouffier . - I got him when he was only 6 months and the only thing I wanted to do was to wean him to eat chicken. "
Achu flatly refused any other food except chicken and it turns out to be a big problem, even purely financial.
" I was shopping from the local supermarket, but the amount per month was really huge. They worked with a company specializing in the production of food of birds. It's called Royal Bernard . So first I made a call to the company asking if I could get the meat at a lower price, but initially I got a negative answer. "
Although disappointed, Bouffier goes straight to the head office to seek discounts direct from the bosses, not by the owner of the supermarket.
" We discussed the price and I got a chicken at a lower price - explains Bouffier . - Then in the last two years we met again and again getting my chicken . "
In 2012 the intention of Bouffier is to participate in Monte Carlo , but for a full budget he still needs more sponsors.
" I talked to the boss to see if the company is interested to help me. We arranged a meeting. The conversation lasted ten minutes and he became my biggest sponsor this year . The guy is not rally into motorsports, has three racing horses, but he trusted me , he said okay and realized that in 2013 I want to drive WRC, and he said he would help again. Here's how a year ago I could hire DS3 WRC, and now the Fiesta RS WRC. "
