So you’re a former World Rally Champion who no longer has a full time ride. You’ve discovered that it’s a blast to drive in the occasional one off endurance event, but you still need to pay the bills. What to do? Easy, design and build a multi use racer that is affordable enough that your fans will buy to race themselves.

Enter Colin Mcrae, with his new R4. The R4 is designed to be used as a rally car, road racer, ice racer or just about anything else you might want to do. It can be 2 or 4 wheel drive, with a six speed manual or semi automatic gearbox. It will be powered by a 2.5 liter engine capable of a whopping 350 hp.

Look around Colin’s revamped site, he has a forum, signature clothing and his very own blog. Be sure to watch the in car video of Colin and Nicky Grist in Colin’s old 6R4. Those boys have real big stones!

Thanks to Autoblog for tipping me off to this one.
