In case you have not already read it Skoda nad Mitus are back in the WRC, this is great and even if Ford runs a limited program there will be at least 5 manufacturer entries which should foster some healthy competition. Looks like the Skoda is improving a lot and with the new Citroen and the reliablility issues of the 307 it is pretty much an open race! I am already looking forward to next year.
Skoda and Mitsu back!

If you want the actual releases..
Maybe this will help convince citroen to stay? (Articles last week were hinting that they were looking at leaving)

The more the merrier...but I hardly think either are a threat to Citroen, Peuguot and Subaru dominance.
Ford is likely losing its top driver, so they may lapse into the Skoda/Mitsu level.
Three competitive teams and three field fillers. At least its better than F1.

>and it is a matter of time before Mitsu comes back with a good car.
They need to use the cars that were being used here in the US in 2003. Just tweak 'em a little to conform to the rules.

i though those were essentially illegal N cars. meaning more mods than allowed but not really a WRC spec car. but at least they would finish. i think the fabia will be very fast if the can keep it from catching fire all the time. colin needs to suck up his pride and get his butt in a skoda.
>Anybody but me think the C4 looks like an early Focus?
Kind of reminds me of an Alfetta GT

...say, doesn't Jim have one of those?
Jim: what's up with your Alfa these days?
(he asked while clearly hijacking the thread...)
Actually, it's far too ugly to be commpared to an Alfa! Try an '88 Honda CRX rear end mated to a '02 Honda SiR front end.
