    I guess they're right---since they never bother to even look---or ask....

    Good on you..
    What's your events you organise?

    (I've poked around looking at the Oz rally scene since I've sent some of the things I manufacture down to some guys but I haven't found any central forum for all the country, mostly poked in on Brindabella forum for ACT)
    I am just a small cog in the larger wheel. I have worked in the Service Park at Rally Australia and NZ, so I am keen to just know what works, what is desired and how things can be put into practice properly.

    For example, many of the tire people hate the remote Tire Fitting Zones. Especially with how they have been laid out and ran. Many mental notes taken for something that is becoming more common in the WRC. Corsica will feature 5 of them.

    Australian rally drivers have their own website pages or facebook etc. Jack Monkhouse, Molly Taylor etc
    NZ has FB/ web pages like the 'NZ Rally Championship', History of NZ Rallying as well as the driver FB pages - Emma Gilmour, Alex Kelsey, Ben Hunt, Holder Brothers, Lance Wiliams, Jason Gill etc.

    Take it as You will. PSA R5 again not exactly according to the rules. I don't know how to recognize a red pipe on a black&white photo but I think that in this case it's probably just a mess in Peugeot. Anyway Andreucci fined by 5000 Euro for non-homologated part on the car.

    the hose fitted on the car was with less thickness=not better that the one MUST have install.
    Its typical,but they have to comply with homologation papers.
    via this hose will pass the compressed air from turbo to engine(2,5 bar) so we need a strong hose that can cope with the pressure and temperatures.
    Plenty of hose manufacturers sell their hoses at various colors.Same hose to different colors.
    For sure wasnt something to purpose,but they have to be exactly the same.
