Kalanth Proper blokes car none of those batty boi things you get today, What bloke would pick an Audi R8 or similar over one of these a puff thats about it.

well ,in Portugal it was excluded from the european rallye championship because in 2 years one after the other people on a mountain road used to put them selves in the midle of the road to see the car flying only in the last second they run before the car toutched the ground ,so dozens of people were run over by cars that couldn´t avoid them, lot´s of them died and the next year the portuguese league promissed that they would increase the safety for the people and cars but a 205 smashed lot´s of people against a tree and you can see in the footage people flying through the air, again 4 or 5 people died and the driver was in a shock state and get traumatised by the violence of what he experienced, so no more rallye championship in Portugal, i went 2 or 3 times watch the rallye in a mountain section and i was amazed how that didn´t happen several times more ,i remenber seeing the car jumping and before it toutched the ground people just vanish fast but always in the midle of the road to see the car from underneath and take photos ,try to find here on youtube that maybe there is footage of that happening, regards

Cosworth rules

It's very sad to see these sports we know and love degenerate into this niche factor. I do feel more effort needs to be out in to make these sports like rallying more public friendly. I do like modern WRC cars, and it's good to see the competition now has 4 manufacturers, as opposed to 2 in 2010, and Toyota will be returning to the fray in 2017 with their Yaris. As you point out, TV coverage overall is poor (BT Sport's coverage is okay) and it doesn't attract even hardcore fans out there. Rallying is so expensive though, let's face it. It must be a nightmare to even survive a full rally.

@Dopey Dope btw δεν θυμάμαι καν να έγραψα αυτό το σχόλιο 😂😂😂

TheMilenkata the wrc was based on the rs cosworth group a car but had a more effective rear wing, different front bumper and front wheel arches to make room for more suspension travel, the rules for wrc spec cars didn't require homologation cars like the cosworth road car. the wrc also used active diffs (don't think the group a cars were allowed to). the wrc had less power but the power/torque was more widely available throughout the rev range as it wasn't so restricted by the road cars equipment. the wrc car also had bigger brakes when in tarmac spec as they used larger wheels than the group a cars. the escort wrc is basically a tweaked group a car, not like the subaru impreza which was re designed for the new regulations.

Thank you.
