The Lotus was only really brought into rallycross to compete with the Evans Nissan Micra
That car uttetly destroyed modified racing in the UK, was brillant but moved the whole deal onto0 a new, more expensive level.
Guys like Bellerby were uhaving to use BTCC tuned engines almost to compete with it and you only have to remmebr the 80 gran price tag of it when it was sold to see how most Escort or otehr cars were never going to compete.
you might say progress, I say regress.
