    I'll believe it if/when I see it. Seems to me the best thing about this is IF (and that's a big IF) they're actually thinking about this as a real possibility while they're still working on (or at least fine tuning) the design, it could have an excellent impact on the functional character of the production version(s).

    While the rules never req'd a manufacturer to build an awd version of the car campaigned, I see where this could be considered. Wonder if they thought about it before the rules changed.

    I hope it happens! WRC is my favorite motorsport and it would be great to see MINI in it.
