True...Stohl(even Gardemeister, Gigi and Henning sometimes) showed in 2006 the whale could finish on podiums and in big points quite often finally ;)

He still thinks it has the strongest engine and that his further ideas for developing the car will make it much quicker than it was. And no, he has not (to my knowledge) smoked funny substances lately.

If it`s not a joke, I think Henning must rename this car as 'Henningout 307 WRC' or 'Solberg-Peugeot 307 WRC' :)

Bozian Racing has confirmed in Norwegian media today that are talking about Henning about next year. They are hoping to have deal ready before Christimas.

Would Bozian run an M2 Team(with two cars)like in 2006 or only one for Henning ??? :confused:

I am not sure, but I think that only manufacturer can submit the papers ie. must use their letterhead and have a company official signature for the papers. And yes, it's a formality but if manufacturer says no, you cannot homologate. You have to have their co-operation.

Peugeot Automobiles, obviously. If things haven't changed.

thats already quite different, iskald said henning will do that.

As far as I remember tha whale had some issues similiar to subarus; high moment of intertia, amongst other things. The whale imo is no closer to cit or ford now than it has been.
