Ralt vs Reynard: Battle of the single seater constructors!

[chunterer]

Ralt took over from March as the dominant chassis to have in F3 and F2, and later Reynard practically succeeded Ralt in F3 and 3000.

Both companies were run and staffed by highly intelligent and skillful engineers but which one do people rate as the better at what they achieved and produced during the 80's and 90's 2 decades that were immensly competetive for the single seater customer market place.

For me the Ralt RT3 is one of the seminal racing cars of all time, which re-set the parameters for production single seaters in design, construction. Ditto the very first Reynard F3000 car, the 88D which blew everyone's minds on it's debut at Jerez in 1988.

Hope this turns into a decent discussion!
