R2 Cars

[Tom206wrc]

Steve Røkland was very happy after his first rally in the Peugeot 208 R2. He felt this car suited him much better that the Fiesta, that he really never felt suited his style.

Lets see if he can get a budget for some international rallies this year.

He beats Marius Aasen(Fiesta R2)this week-end in a norwegian rally

The turbo engines are inevitable but I really prefer the old-style atmospheric engines...

Yes, the NA engines do have better sound. A turbo engine can also be good with a fuller sound, as long it’s loud enough with high revs. It will be interesting to se… hear the three cylinder engine.

190hp from a 1L, 3 cylinder engine sure isn't bad either. Hope it's reliable! Will be interested to hear the sound, wonder if it's a little unusual sounding like 5 cylinder engines.

Trabant had a two-stroke, two cylinder engine.

Promising car? For who? For Malcolm's business?

For beating the other R2's.. For Wilson it's no question. With some cups running it's not a risk to make a new R2.
