impreza wrc car testing
might have been brought up before but,
Video - Subaru prepares for the 2007 WRC season. December 06 test session with Petter Solberg |
Awesome :thumb:
|
Mine handles that well lol
That is a seriously fast motor |
From that video it looks impressive and well set-up but we'll have to wait for the Monte I suppose. I hope it's more competitive this year.

Can't wait for the new season to start ( in a couple of weeks! :luxhello: ) really hope the Subaru is more competitive this season.

Was at Prodrive the day that Pirelli picked up all there tyres (day after Rally GB finished)
Prodrive stated to us that they had dropped Pirelli. That is why I said what I said?????????? There are pictures of our day on Scooby SMACS the Owners club of South Manchester And Cheshire Subaru's (SMACS) |
Fair enough, I thought I read that they pulled out, but hey, no matter.
Lets just hope the BFGoodrich perform better eh? :D :D |

> everyone has to use the same tyres? Only partly wrong, FIA are planning a single tyre formula but not until 2008 I think. Still open this year and Subaru have picked Michelin, oh sorry they're now cynically repackaged as BF. |
Cool video! :cool:
So fast on those night sections! :eek: :notworthy |

Still open this year and Subaru have picked Michelin, oh sorry they're now cynically repackaged as BF. <cynical mode on> "Whoever pays the WRC organisers the most money"<cynical mode off> And it won't necessarily be the best tyre for the sport:( Lots of decisions have been taken over the last few years that aren't that good for the sport:( Starting with the rule banning Group B cars:( :( Alcazar, (ALL IMHO, of course) |
Anyone know WHERE it's taken? Looks like the roads around Crest and Die in the Drome region of SE France? I know some rally teams practice there;)
