For me it is not only about the sound, but S2000 was for true rally drivers. To be fast, you must keep it in high revs. Cars with turbo engines are more friendly to "not so top" drivers...
And be 100% accurate. Mistakes mean much time lost, mostly due to a narrow powerband on the NA engine.
same with R2 and R3 NA, now all youngsters are going through a different learning process. They dont even have to worry about turbolagging.....
If a manu team so called ,,principal'' worries about that ,,home-made'' cars would be faster than works-team cars, then maybe look in the mirror..
There are fast wrc2 drivers, who can't get close...
I hope some magic can be found and we have a competitive race.
