At the end of season I like to ask your feelings about this R2/R3 championship? Was it good idea or bad? What media and spectators talk about those "small" cars? Just because I know that they think that same thing in Finland also. This moment they are planning that next 3 year's here are 3 different class in FRC(4wd cars, R1/R2 and R3/group n/2wd tbo diesel). But after that here is a change that only 2wd cars are allowed in FRC. That's why I like to know your feelings about it...

The organisers of the BRC had no other choice really. In the last few years there have been 1, maybe 2 S2000 cars in the BRC - they are far too expensive to run. When I've been to the BRC events this year , there have been younger drivers at the front flat out & committed - Evans, Cave, Cronin, Pryce, Nikara, Donnelly, Korhonen, Kumpamaki, etc I doubt they could all have afforded to run a S2000.
However, it will change again next year, when the BRC will run under National permits.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Just to echo what AndyRAC said ^
The earlier rounds were absorbing for the level playing field the series created . No longer did the deepest pocket have a massive advantage (even if we all mourn the passing of Pugsworth). For Rally Yorkshire it was sad that the event suffered from a foregone conclusion feel / higher objectives by one. But at the end of the day a very good driver beat the new kids on the block to reinforce his credentials as one worth a place in European / World events.Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!
I think we saw this one coming, didn't we?
