A full season for GGRX then? On a slight tangent: given that Csucsu was the only driver who seemed to have any current association with JRM, do we think they will be back in 2017? |

And that's without Seat (which look unlikely now) and Gronholm in that MSport fiesta... 22 permanent drivers would be a good start.

Expect Doran to appear in the British championship and some of these drift in a car park tripe events.
No way the DS3 are going to cut it as even Petter was being beat last year. |

Kornel was quick last year at times. And his car went a lot better than it looked so maybe with the right team and a reliable package they could do OK. Bit the completion is such that I expect them to be at the back. Be good to hear the last few official announcements . Wonder if any more surprises

Below is something that popped up on my FB from Dean Karnage Kearney. The picture shows the DS3 in Monster livery. Liam 'loved' it so make of it what you will.........
We've had company at the shop for the past couple of weeks.. My bro @liamdoran has been preparing his US based World RX car from our shop for some interesting US projects his got planned.. Waiting patiently for him to finish prepping it so we can do a seat swap at @willow_springs_raceway before our cars start traveling for the race season again |

I think he is probably angling to be some sort of Ken Block rip off.
He was in the latest Monster Doonies advert. Lord only knows what they see in him still after Gatebil last year. I would have dropped him like a stone! |

Liam in the GRC? Would seem a bit of a step backwards for him, but Monster might be keen?
There have been some pictures of the C4 posted on Facebook over the last couple of days: I was quite surprised to see "other" garages working on the car, though the text with the pictures does mention working with inconel, which I understand is pretty specialist. Pat running the C4 again this year I wonder? |

Thanks for the clarification: I'm an engineer, so I know what it is! I have never worked with it personally, though I understand its a sod to weld, which I thought might be the reason why the car was being worked on by someone other than LDM.

Loco is popping up everywhere sponsoring rallycross drivers, saw that they are sponsoring Marklund too now. Checked out their twitter and their feed is just filled with WRX, rallycross, IMG etc. Does anybody know anything about the company?

So far no news from All-Inkl. They hired Rob Huff for WTCC season. I assume WTCC has priority. But what about part WRX/ERX season for Rene Munnich himself and.....Tanner Foust?

As you say though, it would be great to see All-Inkl running a full European/select World program. Ditto for JRM. |
