Colin McRae-designed rally car to debut at Goodwood

One of the most successful drivers in rally history, Colin McRae, has designed his own rally car that will be put into limited production after its debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend. The Prodrive Subaru Impreza rally car pictured helped make McRae a household name, along with the videogame Colin McRae Rally that has graced all manner of game machines.

4Car reports that the car was designed with the privateer in mind and will feature four-wheel drive, a 2.5L engine and a unique spaceframe chassis. Not much else is known about the rally car, like which partners McRae has collaborated with to produce it or where the financial backing comes from, but we'll get our first look at the car this weekend at Goodwood, and hopefully more info to fill in the gaps.
