Default Subaru back in rallying?

OK, so its WRC 2 (the production class series) and not full WRC, but its a start

Interesting that they've partnered with JRM....

I noticed JRM have taken an ex Prodrive S2000 Mini Rally car and have updated it for the European Rally Cross championship, there's a feature on it in this months Racecar Engineering

Well its not the main class, but at least its a start! Hopefully Toyota returning to the WRC fold will ignite a bit more interest in Japan.

JRM have bought the entire MINI rallycross program from Prodrive, including two cars. Some of the Prodrive staff involved with the rallycross MINIs have also been picked up by JRM.

Guy Wilks drove one of the two cars at Lydden last month: he was bloody quick in it!
