[ERC] 2012 European Rally Championship

What is more important for a rally? The same name or the same location?

Yes, it was on tarmac also juwra.com**|**Rallies - Poland

By the books I have which mention “Rajd Polski” the route was about 3000 km ( in the mid 60’s). The other book says 24 SS and the other 150 km of SS.

The book saying 150km of SS was originally written by Stuart Turner.

I can assure you, the location matters a lot. Here in Bulgaria we used to have our so called Rally Bulgaria (Zlatni/Albena used to be called before) and it was in completely different part of the country with stages not alike at all. But not everything comes to the stage characteristics, Rally HQ makes big difference also.

Yes, it was 5minutes from my home, near Kraków. I prefer that stages but also this in North of Poland are good.

I hope Bouffier and the 208 R2 won't be on 00 car at the Rajd Polski but among the participant entrylist :confused:


Edit: oh no I've read a page before it will be in 0 car :(

First Peugeot must homologate the car ;)

I thought zero cars had to be homologated also..

Tought so! Maybe he will be 00 or ...

That's just a theory but applied only in WRC events I think. I think that here in CZ the rules says the zero must not be a race car but it's not fully applied as well. We've seen yet not homoloogated Fabia S2000 as zero in Barum and Sanremo 2008, 207 S2000 in Antibes and Condroz 2006, 208 R2 in Tour de Corse and Norther Ireland 2012 etc...
