World Rallycross Championship a.k.a RALLYX

""I heard rumours last year that Citroen were going to officially back PSRX but that doesn't seem to have happened""

They pulled the plug not long before the series started as far as I know, so no factory support.
If they ditch WTCC for 2016, maybe RX support?

As far as I know the PSA support went to Hansen Peugeot not PSRX, - judging by this years results it looked like PSA backed the wrong team and car :-)
Interesting to see Yves Matton congratulating Petter on Twitter on every result though, as you say maybe next year........unless Citroen money goes to FE.

I'd like to see Andretti's Beetle in WRX..

Hopefully Per Eklund's Beetle will be in action before the end of the year, so we'll have one Beetle in Europe!

(Not that I personally want to see any: I think it's an awful looking car!)

I saw a picture of that on Facebook yesterday: it must be mental to drive, that much power in a car the size of my shoe! I imagine it's very skittish at speed.

Mid or front-engined..?

I know you guys are more fans of the WorldRX series but here some updates about RedBull GRC and the ScandinavianRX series.

Here you can watch the season opener from the GRC series in Ft. Lauderdale. It was a terrible track but I just enjoy watching RX cars racing anyway.

you can also watch the XGames Final. Great track, great racing.
Liam Doram and Andreas Bakkerud raced there.

Now watch the SuperCar final from the Scandinavian (Nordic?) RX season opener too!
Here its easy to find OMSE cars, VW Sweden, Per Eklund, Hansen-Peugeots and all the other Swedish teams from World RX. Next race is this weekend

spectator attendance is pretty disappointing in all of the above events.

[giu canbera]

Agree.
Thought XGames would have crowds like last years but they were more focused on Bikes and Skates.
Ft. Lauderdale was a terrible event too. IDK whats happening to GRC

In case no one has noticed, GRC cancelled the Seattle (at the Dirt Fish rally school) race without any announc for the fans or even the TRACK itself. Seems like Dirt Fish has some bills to pay and werent able to secure the GRC deal. But they were informed by some customer, not the board.

Also theres some weird things happening in Andreas Eriksson's brain in US.
-First he confirmed Mitchell DeJong in one of the OMSE Ford cars then he changed the contract. Mitchell jumped out cuz it would be some BAD DEAL. Now He cant drive in GRC due something that has not being explained for the fans!
-Then he (Andreas) demanded GRC champ Joni WIman to come to the track for the first race but he was sick at a hospital!
-Then he got suspended from 2 races for talking sh*t about GRC board.
-And its no secret guys like Block and Deegan dont like Andreas cuz he kinda "Dont like Americans"
-Now he moved out from east coast to west coast and is planning to build a propper rallyX track in US for both WorldRX and GRC... AND MAYBE a Nascar team under Tim Cindric's orientation (?????rumor ???)

...Jag talar inte svenska men Andreas är en konstig kille! =P
