The return of group b?

Ford's M-Sport division is on course to deliver its new Fiesta-based S2000 rally car - a machine that will also provide the basis for Ford's WRC entry in 2011, replacing the highly successful Focus WRC cars.

Maybe not group b, but i'm looking forward to high powered N/A screaming towards a step in the right direction.

excuse my ignorance

I was under the impression group b was hot hatch rally cars, i seemed to have missed the small but important point about almost no limits to power.

I still think it's quite cool and could mean the next phase of fast fords are 4wd opposed to the fail of 250bhp through the front wheels (which while technically impressive still seems wrong).

Interesting stuff, ta.
