A lot, R1 is almost stock car with rollcage. It doesn't have even limited slip differential...

I know, but if you should make a guess Mirek ? 30 hp difference in power.Quote:

The guy doing Rally France in a R1, had 79,5 km/h average, and the only finishing R2 had 86. But I dont know anything about the drivers of course.
Loeb had 106 average, so aprox 80 is not that bad for a standard+ car !
Manu Guigou is the best 2WD driver in France, but in France he wasn't very excited to drive a R1 instead of his Clio R3 :rolleyes: It was strange to see this fabulous driver slow slow slow in the Twingo, because when he has the Clio, he is just :eek:
So he could have gone faster if he wanted to, is that what you are saying ?Quote:

To compare R1 to R2, maybe furthers rallyes of the FRC are better example ;)
Congratulations to portuguese crew Pedro Zamith/Gilson Rocha who won the 2010 brazilian Peugeot 207 cup :up:
Laurent Reuche new leader of the french Volant 207 today, after his victory on Terre du Vaucluse, with only the rallye du Var to go and close the 2010 season :D
We aren't far to have for the first time a non-french driver winning this french cup...mmmmh that's interesting ;)
