On those basic things you forgot to mention that 911’s are 150kg heavier than R5’s…

you don't have to mention me the 150kg,with these 150kg they were faster at straights.

Honestly I quit trying to make you understand the obvious: there was an overall balance between the 911 and the S2000/R5 on the spanish rally series; in faster or smooth stages the Porsche was ahead while on the sinuous or irregular roads the S2000/R5 were in front. That balance was ruined by 2015 rules (38mm restrictor on 911’s).…

balance was on your mind only. That's why Vallejo was multiple champion,while now with equal machinery is minutes behind.

, in order to argue that 911 drivers were slower drivers that could only win due to an alleged technical superiority, reveals on what side of this debate is the stubbornness and/or stupidity.).…

I haven't said that EVERYBODY who drove a 911 was slow driver.I was talking from previous year about Vallejo and Burgo,and you said that they didn t have advantage.
of course now who are minutes behind with equal machinery,you remembered that they were also ''other drivers''

, Btw, about that alleged superiority here’s the link to 2010 CERA results http://www.ewrc-results.com/season.php?s=2010&nat=8 , the year Hevia in a Fabia S2000 defeated Fuster on his 911 3.6 and another to 2014 CERA results http://www.ewrc-results.com/season.php?s=2014&nat=8 , the only year there was a proper competition between a 911 and a R5. Any impartial viewer can easily conclude that Vallejo's 911 3.8L and Fuster's (yep, the same one) Fiesta R5 were on a close fight all over the year and Fuster’s retirements were the main key for Vallejo winning the series.

yes Vallejo was close fight with fiesta r5,but now with r5 ds3 cant fight.
Nice story,the dragon when comes?

but I’ll keep enjoying those and applauding the best drivers no matter what kind of car they’re using, as long they use them on max attack mode!

me too I applause these who attack no matter car they driving,but I will not applause a champion with power advantage vs better drivers with slower cars.

...yep! http://www.revistascratch.com/region...-caamano-37113 So, it's still a Evo 1 (chassis 207) and it'll be used by Iago on Galician Rally championship.

Btw, the same site is also saying that Garcia will run spanish gravel rally series (CERT) on a R5 Fiesta, alongside the tarmac series (CERA) he's already competing.

maybe an interesting clip from rallye-Magazin.de for those who don´t understand where the advantage of unresticted Porsche is.

We forgot the Swiss! Pays du Gier Rally (F) was their season debut and Carron managed to impose his Fiesta R5, 23.5s ahead Ballinari, on equal car. Third Swiss was 911 driver Valiccionni, 4th overall: http://www.asadelaloire.com/wp-conte...al-Moderne.pdf

Dear Christ, I thought we were done with the 911 talk...

Actually, that video (another La Tula Sport nice work) is from a classic Asturias SS, the well known Nueva-Labra ( http://www.rallyellanes.com/2016/nueva-labra.asp ). The footage was taken on Llamigo straight, after 800m on full throttle, but if anyone remembered to make a similar video on the more sinuous section, close to Labra, the result would be quite different: probably with the 911 behind the R5 and even the N+. The whole 19.9 stage kms can be seen through this amazing onboard: https://youtu.be/1Za0gkw3tSI?t=82

Yep, what a coincidence! From that precise SS of the 2015 Rallye Villa de Llanes there’s an on-board of Vallejo’s 911. Now, unless anyone is blind, everybody must recognize that these 15m09s (large screen recommended) are a fantastic driving show and a material proof that top 911 drivers weren’t only fast on straights!

Btw, all rally long Vallejo and Yonatan Perez (Fiesta R5) we’re in a close fight for the first place. Vallejo win was only decided on last SS, with a final 8.1s difference, after 160 stage kms ( https://www.ewrc-results.com/results...=21327&s=97017 ). The previous year Fuster easily won the rally in a Fiesta R5, as Vallejo lost big time in one off. But on Nueva-Labra SS Fuster was 7.9s faster than Vallejo on the first pass and 11.2 slower at the second. Numbers that help to realize how balanced the spanish 911 vs S2000/R5 overall match was.

Pavel Valoušek to replace Ondřej Bisaha in first round of Slovak championship Rally Rožňava in Bisaha's Fiesta R5.

Results of Rally Rožňava, opening round of Slovak championship:

1. Koči (Fabia R5) 52:21,7
2. Valoušek (Fiesta R5) +7,4 (10 sec penalty for hitting a chicane)
3. Grzyb (Fabia R5) +9,7
4. Ondrej (Fabia WRC) +18,0 (20 sec penalty for hitting chicanes)
5. Majerčák (Fiesta R5) +1:33,0
6. Trněný (Fabia WRC) +1:55,2
7. Melichárek (Fabia R5) +2:07,5
8. Kukučka (Fiesta R5) +2:27,4
9. Gavlák (Evo IX) +3:20,8
10. Drotár (Fabia R5) +3:40,5

Addielson (Fiesta R5) crashed, Semerád sen. had technical issues and retired. Not very often similar situation like here happens where there are two drivers who would win without having any penalty but that's how it is.
