They are an excellent chassis and with an engine like the 2.0 Zetec Lump with so many tuning parts available for it I think its a great buy.

Ian Howell is the man to talk to regard DuraTec/Zetec tuning. www.area-six.co.uk


Eh... I'm Paul_J and I have neither of those things you said about

I dont think the arguement is that they are slow! They are under powered!

The chasis is excellent and could have handled more power, hence people saying its under powered, not "its slow"

My runaround is group 18 Poss higher if there is one.

They are still trying to think of a group for the RS.

It currently has an oil rig policy in force till they do.
