Perfect GMT times for me - brilliant!
Really buzzing about this one - although after 3 years of suffering, if Petter doesn't have a good result here I will have to kill someone...

Just one comment,
Gabriel Pozo who was originally entried wih a Tango Team Lancer N4 for Argenina (as his only race for 2008, pWRC and national championship), has finally reached an agreement with Barattero (Subaru STI codeveloper in Argentina), so he will compete the rest of National Championship and the WRC round in Argenina this week with a Subaru N14.
New car and first race since UK Rally last year (were he lost his last vcahnce for 2007 PWRC crown), bu very good news for Pozzo.
Unfortunately all these came to close to the rally, and he was not nominated as wild card entry for PWRC points (Ligato and Beltran are nominated, a pitty cause this last one is not a good one)

If thatis the case Subaru will make this car work propperly just before it is replaced by a new one!!

What does the collective think about how Travis Patrana will do with the more experienced Derek Rinker instead of Christian Edstrom. By the way, Christian is a great guy.

A good co-driver is essential, and more in a case like Travis who is not used to writing notes.
I guess Travis will show big improvements, but not only for Derek, but because it will be the first wrc round he does for a second time, so he will have better notes and knowledge of the roads.

I guess same as before, he will have no chance against the frontrunners, my guess is that the gap between him and the winner will be around 5 minutes.

Only 5 minutes?
Nearer 20 minutes surely as in Mexico 8th place was about 18 minutes behind wasn't it?
(I could be horribly wrong :) )

I also expect Petter to get a podium here, it is time already, the car is looking better after new mexico.
