They all go to the big World Rally Championship in the sky.


A lot of cars are bought up by rally teams who compete in domestic rally championships like the British Rally Championships etc.

They usually end up with totally different liveries so are often hard to recognise, and might have a few different regs to comply with and different tyre quality, but they are essentially the same car.

Here are some pics from the British Rally Champs to show what I mean...





Oh, and please at least try to learn to spell, punctuate and type properly. If anything it'll at least make people take you a bit more seriously.

Yeah... you have that black Corolla from the Q-park team. I forgot the drivers name I believe it's Dirk Eerds. That man is really really good.

EDIT - It's Frits van Eerd... The car used to be of Carlos Sainz and got a 2nd place at the 1999 Rally of Portugal.

Because they are so similar. Clearly a case of badge engineering.
