    Well.. But Kresta can do fairly well with client car in Czech championships.

    I think itīs more or less setup (car/tyres) problem with Toni..

    A few have complained about set up after the first stages. Lets see if some of them gets it right after the break.

    I guess the man in the Megane will get faster after a few adjustments, since he as a driver is supposed to be fast.

    I agree with RS: with Toni, itīs probably a little bit of everything that slows him down sooo much in the end + we mustnīt forget that he drives his own car, so a big crash would be crucial for his financial resources.

    Mirek would probably know more, but after Canarias he mentioned that Toni got a promise of new motor parts or even of a new improved motor from Skoda.

    Yes, like I already mentioned, unlike Toni, Kresta is deemed to be one of the best "set-upers" there is.

    The Finnish commentators on Eurosport said that Toni would get updates to the engine.


    Here are http://channel.ellegy.com/ (Rally 2011 / Test Mini RRC) sound samples for Mini with 30 mm restrictor. For me it looks like the rev changes are made at about 6700-6800 rpm.

    It seems that even in this case calculating with the relative size (area) of the restrictors ( 31 mm / 33 mm) give a pretty good result if WRC cars make the gear change at 8000 rpm.
