Over 100 years of motorsport legacy:the Skoda Fabia Super 2000

Based on the second generation Fabia this car is meant to compete in the Super 2000 category and as FIA regulations say it has a 2 litre 4 cylinder normal aspirated engine,a 6 speed sequential gear box and 4 wheel drive helped by 3 mechanical differentials.From a design point of view this car looks great even though it will probabily never roam the treets.I think Skoda realised that there’s a lot of almost free publicity in the racing scene so they want to get a piece of the action.skoda super 2000

Dr. Eckhard Scholz,a borad member over at Skoda Auto and also the one responsible with the technological development,declare the following: “We are glad to have started testing the Fabia Super 2000. This year we are planning to optimise and certify the vehicle so that we can use it on both national and international levels. When exactly will the vehicle be released for competition use will depend on the achieved progress, relevant test results and the final certification. Then we are also planning to offer the vehicle to private teams. Based on a customer service arrangement, further development work on the vehicle will be done in close cooperation with our importers worldwide”.skoda super 2000
