Default Paul Blomfield/Blomfield Racing- "RS500"

If you can call that fucking thing a "RS500" Its barely a sierra

Anyone know of the spec of that thing?

I got tons of pics (there a few here for people who not seen it- http://www.ianhardy.net/gallery/amoc6croft03?page=1 ) but i dont know of the spec at all barring what you can see in pics.

What engine has it got, and WHERE? I presume a YB in the front, but i got a pic of it with the front clamshell off (its spaceframe) and you cant see the bloody engine, so its either really really low or in the back, lol.

I am sure that it was originally built with a Porsche flat six engine for Thundersaloons.

Youre right ,its currently got a V8 in the back , it was front engined for a while . Rod Birley used to own it, its had GAA's , and The Porsche flat six Group C engine it over the years. i believe its Michael blomfeld isn't it ?
i had one of Tony Sugdens Skodas last year , March f2 based running gear , hes retired now from racing , was 70 + years old and still outrageous !

The funny thing is that the SKODA has an Ex ROUSE RS 500 Engine in the back !

So it's just as much an RS500 as the look alike Sierra !
