U should have represented Ramsport with one of there historic cars in Legends Boucles de Spa today! One of the biggest Regularity/Historic event in the word and competing against your old teammate Duval, Auriol, Waldegard, Snijers, Duez, Droogmans, Neuville etc. U would have enjoy every second of it :) . Maybe next year! And good luck with finding sponsors!

Thanks, Antony.

It's always been interesting for me, what happens when a privateer does extra damage to the car through an event? Does he fully pay every excess after it, obligated by some kind of a contract? Does the mutual-agreed rent price before the event include some "reserve fund" and is it returned if there's no damage? What are the rumoured rent prices these days (I dont mean how much could it cost but what somebody said he has paid)?

all the cars have insurance....the driver pays a sum to the company to rent the car and the sum includes insurance even for scrapping the car as well.

If the rally car causes damages to 3rd party vehicles or persons usually the organisers of the event pay the damages tot he 3rd person.

How bold insurance companies are! So preparators are happy for every additional damage :rolleyes:

Is it true that the greek driver paid 150 000 euros for the fiesta last year? Because I understood P.G. paid about 100 000 for Sweden and 50 000 sounds pretty much for the longer shipment only?

the driver posts in here so he can answer you that question...

And now a question directly to Antony

What can you tell about manufacturer teams' offences against technical rules? What changes (could) cars had between pre- and post-event scrutineering? What about unauthorized repairs on road sections, changing weight ballasts between the scales? Could a team be sure that officials wont check certain parts of the car? and so on....
