If he spends a lot of money for a car in the last period of the year with no points interesting and fail what after?
The role of testings is exactly this,for checking cars.
Although,I understand what do you mean about real race conditions but don't agree a lot ;)

Can a Norwegian help with the translation??From what I read in the translator Petter will test the Focus,but I am not sure...
Petter speaks of his meeting with Malcolm and says he was not looking forward to it after they split in 2000. Also that he will test a 2008 spec Ford Focus soon to enable him to decide betwwen the car of offer from Citroen and Ford.Quote:

He tested the C4 and needs to test the Focus before making his decision. My own opinion is that the Focus is 99,9% the C4 is 101% the best rally car, (thats is of course listening and watching both cars Like most here I have newver driven one!- I feel the C4 is more pwerfull and has 6 speed box and responds more crisply whilst the Ford seems lazyer in response, and has a 5 speed box)but is devastatingly efficient and forgiving. Maybe Petter decides on where he feels more comfortable with (car wise) Honestly there is not much between either car and it must be what 'feels' to Petter as a driver.
Thanks mate!!
From what I can read between the lines, the focus is a 08(same as Henning), and the C4 is a 08+.. I dont know if ECU is a part of the "FIA spec rules", but if he gets control over the engine like he wants, I can't see a problem with eather of the cars.. If he can't get the latest ECU mapping, I would go for the C4...
The C4 is definitely the more aggressive car and much nicer to watch for it. Whether it's faster who can say, I guess it also depends what suits Petter's driving style more.Quote:
