[s-cars] RE: RE: Miss piggy still makes a BLT...

[Trevor rice]

Due to the split in brand image which the VAG group is trying to promote. 
Audi aren't willing to make a WRC rally special. Primaliy they we're up for 
Le Mans type events but thats been pulled as they could only lose face, how 
do you beat winning 4 straight at le mans?.

VW have a super 1600 entry the polo. As someone else mentioned Seat & Skoda 
are / we're WRC material.

But if you think of the WRC regs, has to be 2L & turbo'd, so the only viable 
is a bored out 1.8T motor.

Does anyone know if Audi had any plans to get back in to Rally Racing so
we can get some nice mfg. competition going between Scooby, Mitsu, Ford
vs. Audi?  Granted they would need to race say the A3 Chassis but I bet
she would fly with a 2.7 Bi-Turbo ;-)
Or does Audi just want to continue to dominate in the LeMans Series w/
their R8?  And their RS6 in the GT Series.  Funny how we haven't seen
too many Mitsubishi or Scooby's in those series? Hmmmm.....I can only
guess "It aint their bag" or don't have a platform that would compete.

Regardless...I think this forum is going way off track w/ all this and
should the thread should be terminated. (Not that my comments below are
going to stir up some emotions and more "trolling") ;-)
