I said back in 2002 after seeing the Xsara WRC finish 7th and 9 minutes behind Marcus Gronholm's 206 WRC at Rally Australia. Sure it was slow on the stages but you could see that all it was lacking was a driver who was 100% confident in it and someone who knew the rally. Funnily enough a year later it lead for most of the rally and was pipped at the post by a very determinded Solberg who made a better tyre choice on the last stage.
Bobcat, I think you've misunderstood what a discussion forum is. It's not a place where you can start a Fester thread and no on can say anything negative about it, it's a DISCUSSION forum and as such there will be discussion regardless of whether it's good or bad.

There middle ground you know.
Anyway, so what about that Judas Mikkelsen betraying the blue oval and going to those terrible Czech folk? I think you were telling us a few days ago how happy he was with Papa Wilson.
Nice to hear that this car revs slightly higher than the Focus, but it sounds too similar IMO. I've never liked the sound of pipo motors, the 307 was boring too.
In these videos the car doesn't even look as agressive as the S2000 version. Anyone have any ideas yet how much slower the 1.6Ts will be than the old 2.0 WRCs? It will be interesting to see how Hanninen can do next year against Ford's pay boys.
As a rallyfan I'm looking forward to that as well, altough I think FIA would change very quickly the rules if the 'older', non-wrc cars are faster, which is a shame of course.Quote:

"Judas" Mikkelsen? Even if you`re trying to be funny, you`re really stepping out of line with that one. Being critical to a driver is one thing, but this is an insult, if I ever saw one!Quote:

Don`t lecture me on this topic! It may be irony, it may be trying to be funny, but there is nothing funny whatsoever in calling a person Judas.Quote:
