GTP WTAC Week 28 : Rally Challenge presented by rpr101
*** Two classic Gran Turismo rally cars are presented for rpr101's challenge. The 1995 Toyota Celica GT-Four Rally Car (ST205) first appeared in GT3 and was somewhat behind the curve as other competitor's models became more compact with better weight distribution (the Celica GT-Four has a long, sports car-like nose). The ST205 performed fairly well considering that it's previous power advantage with the ST185 was pretty much wiped out when smaller turbo restrictors were mandated by the WRC (from 38mm to 34mm). Toyota kept the same engine from the previous model and someone at TTE (Toyota Team Europe) made a really bad call to use an illegal turbo restrictor. They were caught and Toyota received a 1 year ban from the the WRC. The other car for this event is another highly recognizable vehicle: the 1999 Subaru Impreza Rally Car. This car made it's appearance in GT 2 and can't be discussed without mentioning it's visual scheme. The blue mica paint and bright yellow six-star logo design is something that anyone who has played a GT game will instantly remember. This car was new for the 1999 WRC season and struggled until the 7th round. After that, it racked up podium finishes in seven out of the final eight rounds and finished second to Toyota in the Manufacturers Championship. ***
