2024 WRC and ERC discussion

[andy97]

I have opened this up now as news and calendars are coming out for nest years.

Personally I also would like to split discussions of the WRC and ERC away from National and Historic discussions. Maybe that’s just me, but hope no one minds.

Must admit, that I am not sure where to put the BRC discussion, but I suppose in a separate National and Historic thread!?

I always felt the R-GT category was a real lost opportunity for WRC. Never promoted, never part of the TV packages despite the spectacular nature of the cars, it was basically an unwatered sapling allowed to wither.

I loved watching Delecour hammer that 911 - but had to seek out YouTube to catch any of it. These Alpine R-GTs appear in number in the Monte, not that you'd ever know from the official coverage!

Not just in WRC, but in national rallying too, albeit with “national rallying type regs” rather than FIA R-GT homologation. Cars like Boxsters, Nissan 350Z, 911 (996) etc can be quite accessible (within reason)
