[WRC] FORUM8 Rally Japan 2023

Drop this rally

Imagine if Taka had crashed into the 0 car... Must have broken down?

But its been that way for all of the WRC, apart from the crazy Group B period. Plus it's been fine for producing all the Rally2 / R5 cars..

Spaceframe chassis was brought in for scaling reasons so any new Manufacturer could use any model... but none have joined WRC anyway.

That changes nothing on those points. The fail to attract new manufacturers is not caused by switching to space frames. Switching to production bodyshells would not make it any better but only worse.

So the zero car was on stage without any reason?

But it was only brought in for the very purpose of attracting new manufacturers.

Zero car still standing here, I totally don't understand

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Joke of a rally. I'm off to bed.

[CeskyOndra]

Rally basically decided after 3 stages and now this is happening..

Yeah much better to not change and gamble on the few that are still there leaving.

On a serious note, M Sport would be toast if the Rally1 car was based on a roadcar.
