It's great to see MEM still developing the Satria.

So, besides the original S2000, there's a S2000 with a 2.5 NA Millington engine for national events and a S2000 1.6(or 2.0)T prototype. Any chance of knowing more details on this Turbo version?

Great news about the top field! Lets hope we'll also see more 2WD and N4 cars to get proper entry lists.

Sure +1 Ford +1 Skoda and +1 Citroen

If my sources are right (almost correct every time) the portuguese championship will be case study next year.

BRC vs CPR on R5 entry lists ;)

For the better and the worse...12 R5 among how many (20?) total entries?

FPAK must put aside R4 cars in order to revamp Gr.N championship, because there's no way a N4 car can compete with Lopes R4 Impreza.

2WD championship must be disputed only at the 6 national (continental) events in order to make it more affordable and the junior (iniciados) championship can have that same 6 events, to get a proper mix of tarmac and gravel rallyes.

Discussion moved to the Portuguese Championship tread (European National Championships sub-forum), since this one is for R5 cars ;)

Sorry for the off-topic non-Potuguese fellows

Even green rims look small in gravel spec ...

I wonder if MEM & Proton would build Iriz R5..?

Ohhhh god nooooooooooooooooo! The car it's just awful and the base for a rallycar it's completely wrong, because of the low wheel archs and he tall body.... being to short as well.

I'd like to see the Satria S2000 fitted with a R5 engine on it.

Let's hoping Proton would make a 3rd gen Satria.
