Default 2006 WRC

Not long now until the start of the 2006 WRC

Petter must have his best chance yet of winning the crown again.
No pugs, citreons or mitsubishi's (not that they were much competition).
Hopefully Seb Leob won't do so well in last years motor, not that i belive for one minute its a pure private entry with NO factory input

2006 World Rally Champions...........Subaru

(sorry for any spelling mistakes before the sad people point any out)

No spelling police here

Ford have a strong line up with Gronholm

and I reckon Loeb's set up will be as good as a factory drive


But yes Lets get behind Petter

Hopefully will be in Cyprus to watch a Subaru win

Hopefully the new Focus will not be up to full speed.
Agreed...Leob is practically in a factory car.
Lucky you....hope to be in Wales.........

Pretty crappy year for top flight rallying IMHO : only a couple of works teams involved as opposed to years where there were Subaru, Toyota, Lancia, Ford, Mitsubishi. The sport is heading down the pan and Dave Richards's helping hand doesn't seem to have had much of a positive effect on what had previously been the best motorsport series.
Might be more exciting watching F1 !
(nope I doubt that : as has been the case for the past few years Moto GP will be a more exciting competition than the 4-wheeled alternative)
