The public are going to be moaning more than they did with the old one .
    LOL and where is the Mondeo Cosworth?

    Eh Ford man eh...come on speak up!

    The turbo they have used will limit the tuning potential in the same way that the ST version is limited to 250-260bhp (only 25-30bhp up on standard).

    The handling is a dream, but the steering is ultra sensitive - so the GP are going to HATE it .

    i have to agree with mike on this. mine is due up next month but i will re-join much to tracey's disgust.

    the trouble is the people that are in control do tend to be a bit odd,and out for themselves rather than the good of the club imo

    I'm just not a 'club' man to be blunt, I love my escort, Period! I have no interest in RS1600i's, RST's etc.......And don't want to hear about them.

    My passion is for the escort Cosworth, not the Ford badge........

    The friends I have made is the only added bonus IMO

    did you not start off in a fiesta turbo though jase? and them realise it couldnt keep up with the black beauty?

    as said, you can join the rsoc as an assciate member you still get the mag the only thing you can't do it put your car on a local group stand

    you don't have to own an rs to join the cleveland group (dicko for example is a long time member and has no rs)
    you don't even have to be a full rsoc member to join the cleveland group but we do actively encourage it.
    we meet at the myton house farm Ingleby Barwick on the second monday of the month at 7pm

    The only real benefit that I see is to keep the RS marque afloat. If the membership dwindles significantly, it will be a sign to the suits at Ford that the RS badge is of little significance, so will mean they will reconsider future models .

    I agree with that 100% Mike
