World Rallycross Championship a.k.a RALLYX

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Base car will be Polo WRC17, so almost nothing same than PoloRX what they have been using past years.

2017 Polo WRC body & aero but chassis and running gear ??

FX and Smeets are involved, and if the team gets 8 mill euro to play with from VW, that will make development during the year possible!
VW has US RX experience, Petter and 2 generations Kristoffersen has euro RX experience. So in total they and FX will make special cars!

Who has designed the Citroens for Petter Solberg? Are they still with Pipo Moteur?

VW will deliver the cars and technical assistance, PSRX will be running the team.

Petter - The car has already been ready for a while. I have been in Germany and looked at the car. It looks very good. F-X and I have the same philosophy about how a good race car should be.

From the start, the team have three cars, one for Solberg, one for Kristoffersson and a test car.

So, essentially VW RX team will use the 17 Polo chassis with the previous RX Polo engine and adjusted aero according to RX rules.That factory boom with big money teams from Ford,Audi,VW,Peugeot(and possibly Honda) will not end well for the championship...Mark these words...

Yeah, it might end up like the WRC which is more boring than watching paint dry. But even though manufacturers have been pouring in (and who can blame them, it's currently the most exciting Motorsport out there) it's still a varied and very competitive field. Let's hope it lasts.

If You don't have any idea what You talk about, better not saying anything.

I used to be a huge WRC fan, watched every race, listened to the WRC radio religiously and a weekend without Becs, Colin and the others was weird.

But.. When the winner by several MINUTES every damn race, every damn season, is a guy called Sebastian. When there is hardly three manufacturers left, and when talented guys have to PAY to be given the privilege of driving a car that looks like the fastest guys but is deliberately slower. I mean... Come on. I finally had enough and now I'd rather watch Nascar than the WRC.

I'd love nothing more than the WRC being good again, but I'm not holding my breath while I wait because I suspect it won't happen anytime soon. And VWs exit doesn't exactly help. So for now I'd rather watch paint dry. Thank god we have World RX so there is still an exciting motorsport to follow.
