4th round of PRC 2007 (Poland Rally Championship) was held from July 12-15th near Krakow, which was the former capital of Poland. This event was previously called "Rally Wavweluski" before, but this year, it was changed to "Subaru Poland Rally". 51 machines entered in the opening stage, but 2 retired from the start. TEIN supported drivers: L. Kuzaj (SUBARU IMPREZA GDB-F), S. Frycz (SUBARU IMPREZA GDB-F), M. Oleksowicz (SUBARU IMPREZA GDB-F), S. Ruta (SUBARU IMPREZA GDB-F) and M. Truskiy (SUBARU IMPREZA GDB-F) all had difficulty in this race.
Kuzaj, who is a famous champion of PRC also competing in P-WRC (Production car World Rally Championship), went off the course early in the race and stayed around 20th place. Frycz suffered from a flat tire and went down to 13th place. Ruta and Oleksowicz finished in 29th and 32nd, and the best out of TEIN supported drivers was Truskiy who placed in 8th place. |
Comments from TEIN engineer (TEIN R&D Section/Mr. Ippei Sugano)
"Although we could not provide direct support in this round, we knew the settings they needed. Because most of the stages were in the city, suspension was set up to be harder than usual. We would like to discuss further with the teams and aim for a better traction with softer setting." |
