[V8falcons]

I have a Genuine RS2000 2 dr (auto) club car,Full cage,race seats,harness,no carpet,alloy door trims,big brakes,semi slicks,firm track suspension but from the out side still looks like its road going,I built it up to hill climb,supersprints and use for track days,I did one event and now want more power so at this stage,Im building an injected turbo 2ltr for it,and whilst the engine is out,Its getting resprayed under the bonnet.But Im thinking I want it more original,so the carpets going back in,I bought some RS scheel seats to go back in it,and May even fit the standard console back in it.
Its an original auto so its a bit rare these days,and Im abit attached to it,so if another escort 4 door comes up cheap I wouldnt mind swapping over all the track gear into it and leave it for road duties only ,saves me worrying to much about bending it,thats not to say ,Im scared of using it,i just want to keep it in one peice so I can drive when Im old................
Ahh yeh getting back to your question,No you wont benefit from using an RS shell/car as 2ltr escort is essentially the same diff, gearbox ratio is the same,suspension is a little firmer new but they may have sagged by now any way if any thing the nose cone makes them marginally heavier.Im considering a standard 4 door as there are more around now and are cheaper,just get a factory 2ltr auto if you can, the tunnel is easier to work under.then go from there,they are a good handling well balanced budget track car,the skys the limit when it comes to performance parts for them.
