Have always loved the M-Sport full spoiler that wraps down to the body of the car. I haven’t actually seen this one you show here. Not my style but interesting for sure. How’d you come across that random piece? Good luck with sale!

Are you talking about the old Mk7 WRC car spec M-Sport spoiler?



Yeah, that's not for sale anywhere, and to even get one, you would have to be an official M-Sport dealer or such.

You could try contacting McKenna Motorsports, as he has one on his ARA open class, S2000 class based mixed parts/'hybrid' Fiesta, and as far as I know he is the current R5 and above M-Sport dealer in this land, but yeah, IF actually available BIG $$$$$$!

The Reiger coil over kits actually came down a little bit in price to only () ~$6810!! LOL
They would still need a conversion to the base car's front knuckles/uprights in order to work/fit though.

The Sadev sequential gearbox at ~$5810 is actually not too bad as far as those things go, IF you could still find/fab up an adapter/bell housing, and a 'streetable' NOT 'on-off switch' type clutch/flywheel to use with it. (NOT that it would be 'streetable' anyway! )

Your knowledge goes for days good sir! How’d you get involved in all this?

I was a general rally fan (and specifically a FORD rally car fan) from way back in the NA Cosworth headed, RWD group 4 Escort RS Mk1s/Mk2s in the early '70s.

The WRC (and stage rallying in general) is my fave form of motorsport over all others (including even F1, ALMS, all touring car, all forms/classes of SCCA road racing, etc.).

The shame is that it is NOT very popular here in this land, despite popular figures from other very popular sports loving it, and being heavily involved in it (Ken Block, Travis Pastrana, etc.).

Even on here, most only recognize these cars we own as great autocross, open track, and for some, even as drag race cars (LOL), whereas on a global scale/stage they are absolutely most successful at RALLYING only.

Funny, since FIA WRC started up again today, I was just looking at the Fiesta R2 and R4 front wheel. Then saw the R4 4wheel drive .

But here’s an R2 spec ready to go for only 75,000 pounds

I now wonder if the FIA is eventually going to replace the worldwide/WRC R5 class with this one, it being soooo much more affordable, accessible, and easy to maintain/support/campaign than any R5 car, and IF they are NOT going to require hybrid power/drive trains for any class below top WRC spec, going forward.

It is almost like a much more affordable, less bespoke/exotic part containing, more standardized, S2000 class of old, but with much more 'tractable' and 'torquey' turbo power, vs that old class's VERY peaky/torque-less ~300 naturally aspirated AWHP.
In other words, THE most affordable turbo AWD rally class for (mostly for now) worldwide competition.

They certainly look A LOT cooler (with those big box flares and hood vents) than the FWD R1/R2/R2T cars, which are almost 'showroom stock' appearing from the outside (the old now defunct, all naturally aspirated 1.6 liter R1 cars WERE basically a 'showroom stock' rally class, being even much more sedate than the old Group N class (i.e.; NO; coil over suspensions, factory sliding caliper brakes were required, factory hubs/uprights only, no engine mods at all, no lightweight parts allowed, no aero/bodywork at all, etc.).

Wow the R1 category is pretty close to stock then. What's the difference between R2 and R2T?

Halfway through, this video talks about the updates to the R2 with the new R4 at WRC Estonia.

The original Fiesta R2 cars had naturally aspirated 1.6 liter engines, slightly modded with stronger bottom end internals, and upgraded cams and intakes to yield about 170 HP, but had racing fixed caliper brakes, could use full coil over, remote reservoir rally suspensions, sequential gearboxes with limited slip diff, and some very limited carbon fiber interior parts (like 'door cards').

The R2T cars are just the latest rules evolutions of the most current (as in Mk 8s as far as Fiestas are concerned), turbocharged versions of the R2 class, which previously was Mk 7s.
But very confusingly, I have seen some of the older Mk7, 1 liter Ecoboost Fiestas listed as R2Ts as well, so .

The rules allow M-Sport to mod/tune the 1 liter 3 cylinders up to ~200 WHP (from the factory power of 123 bhp)

Thanks for the explanation. Some great info!
