No, the fabulous 5-cylinder 2.5 Turbo which is is the prime reason for having the MK2 ST.

That's the Volvo engine isn't it? I wasn't sure if it was on the ST as well as the RS, now I recall they had the RS output 300Bhp as oppose to 250? Something like that?
It is a fabulous one, they used it later for the C30 Polestar (PCP) which unfortunately never made it into production, shame, it sounded magnificent over there with 400 horsepower and 500~ Nm of torque.
A Hyundai entertaining on a road section could lead to trouble ?

Someone did the same at the same spot there last year.
Edit: was also Neuville haha...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9Xt8QepoOA
I believe they closed the road from traffic and there’s marshalls controlling spectators
The road wasn’t closed, but lots of police around trying to prevent gridlock. This was close to Kasarani.

Unlike last year when the full road section afterwards was closed, we had a police convoy for every 6 cars or so.
I think it worked pretty well, I have some videos I took with my phone but must admit I fell asleep for large parts! :rolleyes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NCUziUK5Wo When watching the video of Neuville getting stuck in the mud it seems that the main cause was that he was taking too much speed in the corner, got off camber and eventually got stuck. Whatever, I admire his all or nothing approach here since he had nothing to lose
But I think Rovanperä getting stuck in sand and blocking the road last year was a lot more silly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOI4AOG7aaA
And there is also this: KALLE ROVANPERÄ'S DRIFTING SKILLS CAME IN HANDY ON THE FINAL PAIR OF SATURDAY SAFARI STAGES ACCORDING TO HIS TEAM BOSS
