    Really nice. It doesn't look that undriveable and it's for sure spectacular! Plus of course the best sound of all recent rallycars. All in all it seems to be much better than I thought

    He does mention that he is running without a silencer in the video. So I guessing that for the WRC they have to run a silencer? Still sounds better than anything the WRC at the moment either way.

    It seems that Finns have taken on converting Aston Martin Vantage V8 to the RGT rules - http://www.mat.fi/gallery/85
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    Prodrive tried it once, was rubbish. The only RGT other than Porsche that had some potential was the Lotus. Cars like the Aston or a Nissan 370Z aren't efficient enough, with no weight pushing on the driven wheels...

    Is that Mäkelä the guy who makes such beautiful restorations of cars and publishes all the photos?
    The guy who rebuilt the GpB Celicas better than new and the Ford Model T with BDA?
