If it has AWD, 300+ hp, and a roll cage, I'll drive it; I don't care if it's a Radio Flyer wagon. Gimmie!

Is there something in the class rules preventing the fitment of a properly sized BOV? Poor turbo...

Ha. Maybe. Probably, even; it's a Yaris. There's only so much you can do to dress it up. ;)

Would still drive it, ugly and all. :)

2017 regulations increase the power for 20%, means the Yaris is close to 400. Also, with the regulations cars were given a 25kg diet (1200 -> 1175kg) and a better aero.

2017 could be the rebirth of Group B, I hope it sparks up the interest in this wonderful sport again, to the level of Group B popularity.


if you don't know what Group B is, please check the link below, every petrolhead should see this:

here's new Polo WRC 2017 test video, hope the Yaris will able to compete with it...
