I do not know how it is at other ERX/WRX courses but in Höljes it usually cost 100 sek/10euro to enter the pits. It has done so for years.

The commentator at the British Rallycross round earlier in the year did mention if might become online ticket only but I was hoping that was just a marketing ploy to boost sales. Last edited by Pozi; 21 Apr 2014 at 11:49. |

Not been near a computer for the last few days, so a few snippets to add to the thread...
Eric Faren confirmed as moving to Supercars, running the ex-Hvaal DS3: http://www.rallycrossworld.com/2014/...ycross-events/ Five rounds planned for him; Lydden, Norway, Finland, Sweden and France. Coox confirmed for Round 2: http://erc24.com/archives/17492 I thought his Scirocco looked fantastic in action at Round 1 of the British Championship, so great to see it back at Lydden again. New Petter Solberg blog up on ERC24.com: http://erc24.com/archives/17477 Not a huge amount of content, but it does contain the first picture of his 2014 car... ...and I see there is a picture of his truck doing his rounds on the internet as well: I personally thought his car was one of the best looking things on the grid last year, so I'm not convinced on the new look: I shall reserve judgement for when the full livery is revealed though! I believe the official press launch for the Championship is tomorrow, so I wonder if we will learn anything else new? |

I was going to ask the question of them too - has anyone actually used the online ticket process for Lydden yet? It all looks a bit cheap and cheerful. |

On a related note I thought the "naked" Marklund Motorsport Polos... ...looked far better than the livery the cars eventually got. |

Looks like TT is staying with Hansen for another season.
https://www.facebook.com/OlsbergsMse...854467/?type=1 Where will Jeanney end up? With Doran in the Monster team? |

I didn't think Jeanney was running the World Rallycross Championship in 2014? This status was posted to his Facebook a couple of weeks ago: Quote:
I also wondered where LDM are getting the fourth car from. Is there a fourth DS3 behind the scenes? Does LDM still have the C4? (I know it was for sale last year, did it sell?) Or could the fourth car be coming via Prodrive?... |

For a WRX team the two cars must be of the same make and model.

Cheers for the clarification Guru. So LDM will need to find/build another DS3 then?

They also told that LD Motorsports staffs and runs two separate teams, the "LD Motorsports World RX Team" and the "Monster Energy World RX Team". And now Skorupski is in the other team, the "Monster Energy World RX Team". A late withdrawn in the "Monster Energy World RX Team" from another "to be anounced" driver? |

Based on the photos from yesterday it looks like Derek Tohill is still in the ex-Bakkerud car (it certainly doesn't look like the ex-Pat Doran car)... ...so perhaps we'll get an answer when we see what car Krzysztof Skorupski is driving. As he is now in the Monster team I assume that, if there are four DS3's, he'll be promoted to the ex-Liam/new DS3 instead of the ex-Pat car he was running in at Lydden.

Papa Marklund and papa Heikkinen are backing their kids? No sponsor logos on the cars. I thought they had factory backing.
I don't like the Solberg livery. The OMSE cars look good. |

Nice way to earn money I guess for doing nothing with an admin fee?
Is the event ticket only? Surely you can buy a ticket ont he gate? I am only going for one day, cand resent having to pay an admin fee for an email to be sent back to me, me to print it, me to pay for printer ink, yet I ahve to pay money for that. Load of tosh. |

It would be good to get this sort of thing confirmed though (along with - are tickets available on the gate, some sort of timetable etc etc) |
