This car is not internationally homologated. New 2.0N/A S2000 cars were allowed for homologation only up to December 2010.

It makes sense to run 2 of the same car out of their workshop, however i think budget will play a big part.. if Henk is in the 207 means he must run S2000 and not the cup,
I am not sure what cost savings there are for the cup class... like you said, lets wait and see, 2 weeks today were rallying.

Lots of short bursts of flash-flood-like heavy rain since the weekend, the roads are taking a pounding. Already the 1st stage has a bridge washed away less than 200m into it! Hope they can fix it in time.

Normally they are fine and can handle the rain well. But this rain is like nothing I've seen. It's bone dry during the day with bright sunshine, then during the night we get sudden downpours of about 60mm in 30min or so. And Sunday I've never seen so much rain fall in such a short time. I spoke to my father last night (he's the route director) and he says the stages are ok, it's only the bridge on Montevideo that's washed away and my understanding of it is that it's right near the beginning of the stage and they could always start the stage from the spectator point about 2km down the road, although that would be a nightmare to organise with how popular that spectator point is.

Well, to my knowledge the qualifying stage is going to be the run through part of the Durban superspecial, so it's going to be a lottery. My father and I were discussing this the other day. If it's dry you really want to run about 4-6 on the road, if it's wet you want to run about 2-3. It's going to be tricky.
