thanks andy, i should be back to myself in 3-4 weeks.
gooo Petter!! thats awesome he could pull out one win. that makes a win for each subaru this weekend. much better showing than monte. mak in 2nd is very nice to see. the potential for solberg is very obvious, but i think it may take this season for him to be very competitive in 04. that will be his year to blow up! well as long as his car doesn't!

WOW! Sebastian Loeb is a good driver. Wish Subaru can have him, but since Peugot has him(via Citroen) we will never get him. Subaru had a good showing though. 2 Guys in points is a good showing! 
What do you mean?! He came in 7th w/ a 2WD car on loose surface. I think that is pretty darn good. Unfortunately, he is French and Peugot is French company. They are just grooming him to take over Gronholms spot.

So what exactly is Citroens excuse for doing so poorly on anything but tarmac. they may have a few good showings on the other surfaces, but not very consistent. what are the reasons for this? car design? for some reason i thought the Xsara was 2wd, i guess i never really knew. o wel.

Before Colin and Carlos jumped on board..they had Loeb and he is a tarmac specialist. For the life of me I can't think who was the second driver before this year???
I also think they have had a lot of bugs to work out on the car(growing pains so to speak) and really needed some good drivers.....
Hopefully this is the year that they have good reliability and a good showing!!

Car Info: WRBlue WRX modded!!!
Bugalski and Jesus Puras were the other citreon drivers
before this years WRC citreon only did certain events ...mainly tarmac ....also the 2wd versions(citreon xsara's) were lighter than the wrc cars they were competeing against and therefore had a better power to weight ratio
now they are doing the whole wrc for the first time (4wd Citreon xsara's) from what i've seen so far they look very good on all the surfaces wheter its tarmac, snow or gravel....

thanks for the clarification. i thought i was partly right about the 2wd xsara's. it certainlly looks like Citroen will be strong in all rounds. Although Petter has high hopes for the new car in gravel. lets hope his predictions are right.
