Mini is slated to makes its appearance in the WRC again next season. They are testing the MINI Countryman WRC which is currently running with an interim body and aero package, while design of the final World Rally Car bodywork is underway.

OH... DMACK and Michelin will become official WRC tyre providers next season as well. Pirelli is out due to concerns over new regulations.

i've been up mt washington before ages ago in my grandfather's suburban which was a slightly rustier version of austin's 'burb. it was mind bottling. the weather up there really is intense, big rain blows in faster than you can blink in the summer and it's already snowed a little up there this year. the wind is the biggest oddity, regularly gusting to over 150mph. i think the highest recorded speed was a gust over 230mph.
