hmm. so its slower to 60 as you would expect, and then, when wind resistance plays more of a role in slowing a car down, somehow 276bhp accelerates from lets say 70mph guessing thats where the mk4 would be catching the RS (but I doubt it) to the quarter mile at about 105mph?? on full bore the RS is not “dragging around a 4wd drive system” its actually being propelled by the 4wd system! With a 70 odd bhp deficit, the only way 276bhp is going to beat 345bhp from 70mph to 105mph is if the MK3 weighs no more than 1250 kilos AND has radically shorter 3rd, 4th and 5th gears and uses a real long o/d 6th top gear for max speed and cruising economy. Mk3 RS … 345bhp and around 1550kilos= 222bhp/tonne, possible MK4ST 276Bhp and a hopeful but possibly unlikely 1250kilos= 220bhp/tonne.. snap! I want to see the tech specs and gear ratios !!
oh and Bob… hows it going to be in the WET ??? slip sliding away…
No nothing.
No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.
No tackiness.
Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.
Innit?
