I wonder if the way the floorpan is affects the handling at high speeds?? Will the airflow being different...
compared to a car like an Elise with a fully flat underbody.
Well to a car with a flatter floor pan...you think it has much difference?

Cars with flat floor pans need wings and stuff because having the underside of the car flat and smooth would create an aerofoil shape making the car want to take off.

Concourse boys
RS is supposed to stand for Rally Sport, not Realy Shiny or Rather Slow.
These cars were honed in the forests of Wales and on tarmac and desert events and all over the world getting ragged and dirty.
Yes it's nice to keep them in good nick, but there is a limit and I think people should concentrate on driving and enjoying, and developing the cars to get as much out of them as possible.
They shouldn't be treated like china dolls and used as ornaments.
He is deranged isn't he - must have some serious problems in his head.
It's an RS - DRIVE THE SODDING THING!!!!!!
He wins an award for it being the cleanest modded car and then pulls it to bits risking all sort mayhem and makes it less original still by painting it unnecessarily
It's a normal 2 door on an 'E' plate too so is very unusual.
Imagine the counselling he's going to need when it starts getting dirty underneath.
Think i'd rather have that black 500 on black MOs from the RSOC meet.
Does look lovely though.

vauxhall dirves aint to fussed about cleaning them tho, because there isnt really that many vauxhalls that are worthy of the cosworth status.
(also ford boys are obviously gay as they like everything shiney snigger)
