Sorry, Gordini

From 1997-99 the F2 cars added extra interest to the Tarmac rounds - something that any sport should want. But not the WRC. The WRCar teams kicked up a stink because they were being beaten by the F2 Kit cars......awww, what a shame. As it was, the Xsara Kit car was the only F2 car to win a full WRC round outright, in the hands of Bugalski, in Catalunya & Corsica; but there were podiums as well for the 306 Maxi in earlier 97/98.

I like the suggestion on another forum of an European International Tarmac series - far more 'road relevant' than a series made up of lots of dry, dusty gravel events. Of course it will never / can't happen.

I think You are right on the money.

The Kit Car/F2 vs WRC was the last time we really had a battle between formats, and it was incredibly exciting!

If Kit-Car esque cars, could meet GT cars vs WRC cars (or R5 cars in an European series), that would surely ad to the spectacle - and they all should be able to fight for the overall win.

It seems there is a new GT car in Austria?

There is a cup with these in Hollland.
And before, the belgian Chris van Woensel made one too, now it is in France.

Not sure if it's still in France. Mauffrey changed from the Nissan to a 208 T16.

Van Woensel's Nissan 350Z was sold to some German driver if I'm correct, so who knows, this could be the car. The faster successor of it, Van Woensel's 370Z, has been sold to Mauffrey indeed, I think he still owns it?

[vino_93]

Not sure for Mauffrey. He didn't use it a lot in 2014, and then he switched to 208 T16, and didn't use it anymore. And that costs a lot ...

Nice! GT cars are present in the official video of the German Rally Championship:

Cool video Jarek!

Also cool is the last Darrian GTR model. British motorsport craftsmanship at his best!

The Nissan 350Z is driving since many years in Austria.
At least since 2012 season.
