It's been 6 years since Mitsubishi retired from WRC. Many fans wait for their come back, but still the company is going under a reconstruction.
What's good is that they still keep the WRC car of their final year. However, 6 years has been too long. This demonstration started off with malfunction of transmission, and then ECU. So while they let other rally cars demonstrate first, they did their best to fix the problems... and this video is what they showed me. Looks good!
A few very lucky audiences were chosen to become a co-driver during this demo. One of them was interviewed after the ride, and her comment was "Astonishing! I had no idea which way this car will make its next turn!".
