totally different project....the kit cars were tested as kit cars...Bugalski tested the WRC car separate from the kit car. Citroen never tested the Citroen kit car to draw conclusions for the WRC, apart from the chassis. Does the Fabia and the polo share the chassis ????Quote:

I really wish the VW to succeed because the sport needs a car colossus apart from the PSA to get involved. But i think the fact that they are using a different car to draw conclusions is wrong....bare in mind that the other teams during the 2011/2012 season will have data from the actual cars they are going to use in 2013 and develop them accordingly...WV will prepare a car in 2012 taking data from a s2000 car, then test the car through the 2012 season (without any competition entries) and introduce it in 2013.....and also they are going to use 1000 different drivers with different driving skills and levels to decide where the evolution and development will head...
well the above plan doesn't fit in my head for a team that wants to succeed...
