Have decided that over the next couple of years i am going to build a GRP 4 escort N/A for rally events.

Especially after seeing the RAC rally yesterday.

Am thinking of going for a S2000 engine, built to historic spec so not as specialised as mine but be good enough to use on the forests and gravel.

So thinking of full shell...4 link, panard, turrets, slipper springs, forest arches, cage etc

Forest spec suspension, 13" rims, atlas 4.4:1, monte AP's etc....

Anyone else got any other idea for a forest car
