Not a bad idea Tony.
Mattray is right.
Having raced both the Zetec is a right b*stard to get into the corners without losing all the speed and requires a far more confident driver than a 1600. Go in without much confidence, lift off ...... you're gone!
My angle in starting this thread is that I think both are fantastic and I am mad on both but I do think the 1600s are a bit long in the tooth and if we moved more to club Zetecs the racing would be at least as good and more modern machinery does attract more people without doubt.
Mattray is right, the Zetec is a bit more complicated to set up but NO WAY costs more than an FF1600 to run - it should be quite a bit LESS. My experience does bear this out.
I do wonder if people who own FF1600s are really just concerned of the long-term values of their cars.........
