I was just browsing in the Motorsports section here and I am looking for any info at all on a Canadian Rally drivers car. Antoine L'Estage
from Quebec has a AWD/4WD 97 tiburon and I am wondering if anyone one here has any info on his car????

Noticed there are a few views on this topic but no responses yet... i happened to find this website:

http://members.aol.com/LibraRally/buildrallycar.html

I think that this is the shop that built L'Estage's car but not 100% sure.

if i had the money and time i would buy those new accent hbk and make it AWD

and what i would use is tuscon drivertrain .... they have a 2.0L AWD 5speed model so a nice start i think

it's most certanly a beta 2 smile.gif being AWD and 5speed would be really nice smile.gif
