Fuel restrictor.
All rally cars are equipped with an air inlet restrictor. This is to limit the power and level the playing field.
This is an simple and easy manageable solution.
But what if there was an restrictor to the fuel consumption instead of the air intake?
This would be to promote more fuel-efficient engine and less pollution.
A fuel restrictor (wo did limit the fuel consumption to a specific quantity pr. second) would be a lot more difficult to make tamperproof, but it wold give rally a greater image as an environment friendly sport.
This is something witch only will be more and more important. Rally Norway was CO2 neutral. Read more: http://www.rallynorway.com/en/pressr...-advocate.html
The second group of WRC2 drivers gained quite a lot of time with the cleaner road. It was harsh on the first guys, especially Romet Jürgenson.
