Funny is that here in France there was what everyone called "the hidden warrior" Mk1 Escort RS2000, with HTP and everything. For years, people had been complaining that the engine wasn't right, that the pinto was over bored, head was not a holbay one and so on... Then came the checks in June 2015 after an organiser decided to have a look at it. It was all legal ! But people still complained.

The real parameter was and still is the thing between the wheel and the seat..
Similar situation with the Tice Conoley Marcos last year.Everybody complaining it was too fast .Scrutineers decided to have a look insde the engine,lots of red faces around the paddock.

"Dont develope the car so its faster than you"When the car starts to feel not as quick,then develope it a bit further.
