Rally2 (ex-R5) News

But it’s called Rally2 Kit?

That's just a new R4 name under the new system.

Because R4 would be too confusing with Rally4, which now has the R2 and R3 cars. It's a mess...

Rally4 doesn´t have R3(T) cars.

RC4 has R2(T), R3(T) and Rally4 cars

This belongs to "R4 news and results" discussion.

You were the one telling us to use the new official FIA class names, no?

So it is a 4 wheel drive car to compete in Rally2 class or what?

R4 and R5 were booth in RC2 too. Nothing changed, just the name.

Rally1 cars -> WRC spec -> RC1 category
Rally2 cars -> R5 spec -> RC2 category
Rally2-Kit cars -> R4 spec -> RC2 category
Rally3 cars -> New 4WD spec -> RC3 category
Rally4 cars -> R2 spec -> RC4 category
Rally5 cars -> R1 spec -> RC5 category

Then perhaps someone should rename the R4 topic as ‘Rally2 Kit’

Yes and still am, but that´s name of discussion, should be "Rally2+Kit news and results"

New Fabia road car is coming in the spring. Hopefully we’ll see a concept Rally2 car soon after and the first public tests..

The new car is likely to be prettier than the current Fabia but also wider so it may lose that chunky chiselled look of the current R5 car that i rather like.
