He's Signed up the the Citroan 2nd team, but he's not garenteed a run in every round.

F*CK YEAH!

My two fave drivers!

Seb and Chris!

Surgeon precision vs heavy handed balls to the wall!

WRC is my favourite form of motorsport, and it's getting worse every year.

:D

I love watching the skills of Loeb & Co...

...especially after my skills went to the limit at "Rally School" lol

Rivetting stuff to watch & experience!

Yes, I hope rule changes encourage more manufacturers to come back when world finances aren't on the edge. :yes:

Well it looks as though the S2000 cars will definitely add some manufacturers back into the top flight for next season... but still no Subaru :)

Loeb once said he'd quit before dtriving an S2000 car so we'll see!

I fast forward the coverage when the S2000 cars come on. Sound shit. Look shit. Go shit.

I do hope they have some more pace to them, and perhaps a bit more torque for some nice sliding... but if not anything else at least the competition should get a bit better and hopefully we can get back to the early nineties when it was exciting to watch, not a two horse race.

See, I don't really notice the lack of manufacturer variances, I tend to focus more on the skill, the commitment, and the outstanding ability of the cars.

yeh same... i didnt even know for ages that there was more than one car to it... when the driving is fast and spectacular... it doesnt matter what car it is... and when the wrc car resembles nothing of the road car... then it doesnt really matter what colour it is and what badge is on it.. aslong as its fast and the drivers are pushing it.. those guys have large kahuna's.

Which is why I still enjoy watching it, but the lack of variety of cars brings in too much tactics which ruin it for me (though I understand it). For instance we've had rallies this season in which Citroen has had the ability to slow up 3 cars to give 1 car a better starting position for the following day, and with more manufacturers involved this would be less prominent in my eyes, which should bring back more straight fights to the finish.

I'd also love to see other manufacturers in just for varieties sake, as I loved the 206's and Rexxies in the early 2000's. :)

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
