Yep, its true..they are out until 2008 as they do a reconcentration on their core business...i.e. tryin to keep mitsu from going belly up!

As good as the EVO is, it's still way behind the technology of the Impreza WRC and really has'nt been any competition for the other WRC teams!

..

I wonder how this season is gonna be...

Ford & Subaru are the only 2 manufacturers left with full-sponsor works teams.

Skoda is on limited schedule

Peugoets & Citroens will all be privateers on an unknown schedule

Mitsu is done!

Toyota rumors have been flying....as well as a return by Renault!

Could be an interesting 2006 season!

Wished they pull out of NA and quit screwing around the consumer with their just a little better than junk cars.

I'm just happy they don't have those "epileptic girl in the Eclipse" commercials anymore....
