Yeah, Ford Group B rally car, along with the Metro's, SWB Audi quattro's, lancias, etc all bit the dust when they were outlawed.

Most do the rounds in Rallycross events now, spectacular stuff! spectacular cars!!

Does anybody think it's odd that none of the photos actually show an engine? :confused:

Sick insane car... way fast. Look up the specs.

Edit: that is the 350hp version... there was also a 600hp version produced :eek:

Edit 2: The 600+ hp version is called the RS200 Evolution, and goes 0-60 in 3.0 seconds, 0-100 in 8.1, and 0-100-0 in 13.6 :cool:

Having produced the two hundred cars to satisfy homologation regulations, twenty four cars were taken to one side for conversion to the sacred 'Evo'. Uprated suspension, brakes and a larger version of the BDT engine was used - displacing 2.1 litres - which at full boost delivered an incredible 650bhp. Various acceleration figures are banded about, with the 'standard' car claimed to reach 60mph in 3.6 seconds and Stig Blomquist said to have reached 60 in only 2.1 seconds in a rally prepared Evo

:D

Funny thing is, this car wasn't a match for the Lancia's and Audi quattro! :eek:

Hehe, that guy knows how to 'get it'! Either won hands down, or destroyed his car! No middle ground! Father was a little more level headed, but little brother is not quite as crazy!!

:laughing:
