Who do you guys think will be the main contenders for the BF Goodrich drive in the Barum Rally in august. I am looking forward to visiting Tsjechie once again. :D

I think they'll have to chose between Valoušek and Orsak, Valuošek definetly deserves the oportunity and Orsak is also a very promising young driver who improves from race to race. I'm sure it will be a very exciting rally as the competition in Czech championship is very high this year and everybody is pushing to the limit. :D

Will Pech, Kresta or Prokop not compete for the BFGoodrich drive?

Does anybody off our Czech collegues have the stages of Barum rally 2008 in Google Earth, or even in Garmin Mapsource format, or any other usuable format. As i will be coming to Zlin in august, it would be a great help to me for preparing the rally. Thanks in advance guys. :)

I wanted to do that for fans but I do not know yet what will be the final form of special stages (only Pluto knows it because he is a member of the organiser team - but unfortunatelly he is tight-lipped). And there is not any possibility how to get info about special stages from the organisers. Please, wait until the official printed programme will be released (probably one week before the event) and I will switch-on my GPS receiver then....

I will let you know here in the forum.

Tom, where did you get this information, and do you know wich names ar on the BF Goodrich list? ;)

After his convincing victory in Kopna Rallysprint, do you think that Kresta will switch to Peugeot for Barum Rally? It would be great to see what he can do there, compared to all major title-candidates for IRC-crown. :D

Yes, Roman is talking for a long time, that he will use Peugeot 207 S2000 on Barum Rally. And this car wont be from TRT.

Do you maybe know what car will he use? And why not from TRT? Reliability I guess. :confused:

I know. He was here only once some years ago (with your team), but from that time he is going only to watch, not to race.

You don't know one of the best Czech drivers? This year he had some podium finishes in Czech Rally Championship with a (much) smaller budget than Kresta and Pech. He did the JWRC in 2005 and 2006.

I just saw that entries are closing tomorrow wednesday 30/08 at 06.00pm. Does anybody have an idea how many entries are made and wich are the main contenders. It seems like they have allready 18 S2000 entries? That is really great and we can look forward to another great battle for victory. ;)

They said it was only 72 crews entered 3 days before closing entries (18 S2000, 11 nationalities).

The total amount of entries is maybe a little surprising, but with 18 S2000 allready entered, i don't think you can complain? ;)

The entries are closed now normally. So any last minute surprises or unexpected entries? ;)

You must wait for another week ;) Anyway Pluto said there was more than 100 crews...
