Basic physics is enough :) Let's simplify it to the state that Your car is able to make average 20 km/h in 1 second of acceleration. If Your cornering exit speed is 80 km/h, two seconds later You have speed 120 km/h. If Your exit speed is 100 km/h, two seconds later You drive 140 km/h.Quote:

We got a plan #AdaptaWRT
Ever owned both in real life though? How reliable they are in rallying has nothing to do with real life reality. I'd put my faith in a Fiesta over a DS3 any day of the year. Especially when its got 300,000km on the clock! ;)Quote:

Never really followed IRC, but i am pleased for Hanninen.
Next season is getting more and more exciting! Can't wait for MC, 5 weeks chaps!
Juho took part in 5 events, 3 wins, 1 second place. 1 spectacular crash.
Mikkelsen - 10 or even more events, 2 wins, 4 second places.
In duels - 3 to 1 for Juho. It is by events where some one took 1st place, other one participated.
My impression is that Mikkelsen is slightly faster on loose surfaces, but Juho better on tarmac. Overall Juho better, but Andreas has a few years on him...Quote:

Petter Solberg legger opp
Petter retired?
Guess so.

- I'm going to miss the rally sport. I have lived in it for many years and it is strange to think that I should not run World Cup next year, says an emotional Petter Solberg.
So, what we'll have for 2013 in terms of history of the sport:
- no world champs doing the (whole) series
- Mikko Hirvonen as the new grand old man (137 starts since 2002), then Latvala 117 starts since 2002 and Sordo 98 starts since 2003.
- Yet it'll be the best season in years
Portugal's Rally Guide 1 has been published: R.Guide1
this is what I get from translation:Quote:

This confirms Solberg, so online newspaper reported that he came to do.

- I know I'm good enough to fight against the world's best rally drivers in more years, but has a great understanding of the economic situation in 2013 is difficult for M-Sport.
After nine years as the Subaru driver, Solberg in 2009 went over to run Citroën for three seasons. This season he drove for Ford. The vehicle manufacturer will not pursue Solberg in 2013 and requires over 20 million of Solberg sure he'll drive for them next season.
Petter Solberg was in negotiations with M-Sport as late as Monday, but they did not succeed and thus put him in the place up.
He will now consider whether to dabble in other motor sports.
- I hope the fans following me into a new branch of motorsport next year, says Petter Solberg.
Rallycross would suite Petter perfectly! Hope to see him there in Europe (proper rallycross, not stadium cross like in the USA)
WTF!!! Nooooo.. I understanding and i hope that he finds money to run or maybe Prodrive him a seat...
Test for toyota or hyundai in 2013 and make a comeback in 2014 with a factory drive. :DQuote:
