    ...ahead of Rally Mexico.

    Looks shiny :)

    Hopefully Mr Solberg will be up there challenging for wins this year.

    (Hope this isn't a repost...didn't spend too long searching around...like 15 seconds :D ).

    the only difference i can tell from last years is the vents on the hood, it used to be one single vent infront of the scoop.

    FTZ ^.^

    That is the only difference I can see from the pic too

    Yeah, apparently the front bumper is a tad different as well. There are a bunch of pics in their media section.
    Hopefully the lack of exterior changes are made up for by some under the hood changes that will help the car go a bit quicker.
    They switched to the same tyre manufacturer as everyone else, so hopefully that will help as well.

    [Edit] Hmm...I just became a junior member... :)

    i saw the thread on nasioc where they linked the article to go along with the pics. looks like suspension and a redesign of the of the IC and radiator are just a few of the changes

    from swrt.com as linked on nasioc:

    I actually get my parents to record the UK broadcasts for me, and then they FTP it to me as MPEG2 or Xvid.

    If anyone wanted, I could probably drop that onto my website, and you could download it. Obviously you wouldn't get it until the tuesday or wednesday after the rally. But it's better than the 2.3 seconds you get on Speed on some news show once a month. :)

    I might still have Rally Monte Carlo and Rally Sweden (Or Norway...I don't think I have both) at home on my PC if anyone is interested.

    Cool,thanks :) I knew about motorsport-torrents, but not rallytorrents.
    Was hoping the first one had World Superbikes on it, as Speed are only showing that on tuesdays, but they didn't when I looked the other day.
