Rally fantastic! I like it that they publish updates and videos. And the car looks just great. Hopefully they find a few customers who buy one and race it on the WRC and ERC rallies.

Very nice looking true racing car. 2wd hatchbacks must be replaced with this to make the sport more attractive.Quote:

No since Tuthill has no expierience from many rallys, limeted FIA tyres and a very small restrictor since 2 days taking him more then 100hp i guess. FIA cutted the cars eggs.
saw the car in harry flatters rally 2014 it looked really fast but it was lacking in the sound department...Quote:

100 hp less?? normal street 997 GT3 3.8l engine has 435 hp, so that means he is driving cca.350 hp? He will be beaten by faster R2 drivers....FIA made a mess, again....Quote:

The info is from a team in the same service area. The way to get the documents (cost 8000 euros) seems to be a mess. Nobody cares obviously about the RGT regulations 3.4kg per hp. No written answer, only verbal orders :) At least the first 997 is running with a FIA sticker, to get it competitive (alone in class) will be part of the future. Under this circumstances other 997 teams will not start their homologation work.
