    New Corolla (Auris in Europe) is built by Bates for Australian championship S2000 regulation.

    It is not based on SA car - RunX (Corolla in Europe) they had discussions but did not use any technology or ideas from SA.

    Fiesta

    Any news on the Fiesta ?
    Have they started the testing, the 31st is getting closer...

    Or will they do this the normal motorsport way; finishing the car the night before the first rally, and just start using it ??

    Some news about the Ford team, here.
    They have signed a tyre contract with Michelin, though it seems they haven't started testing the cars, yet.

    They produced a promo video & released it on Youtube but it only contain footage of the Gp.N(P) Focus with the S2000 Fiestas still under fabrication in the workshop shots. Nothing else has been made public yet.

    Can't wait to see what both the Corolla's & Fiesta's are like when I head up to Queensland for the rally.
