Jus for RS500....

This 6R4 was probably the most powerful 6R4 ever made and certainly the most successful. Its twin turbos produce approximately 750bhp at 2bar boost from its 2.4ltr engine. After winning the European Rallycross Championship two years on the trot, rule changes by the rallycross governing body forced Will Gollop to sell the car. It is now used in the Midlands Hill Climb Championship.

It was brought to POWERSTATION for a new Engine Management System as the original system was a derivative of the original 6R4 Lucas system. POWERSTATION fitted a modern MOTEC system which greatly improved the driveability of the engine. Full data logging facilities were also incorporated so detailed analysis of the run up the hill could be carried out.

Heres a pic of it in its original Rallycross colours, but its RED now its a hillclimber...


Some quality vids of the above car...
