FORD FOCUS REAR WHEEL DRIVE










the ford focus of robin wilkinson suffered with terminal steering problems the car would not turn in would not steer round corners more than 15 degrees the car brought to rally world for baz cannon to work out some solutions to cure the problems . the steering rack position was completely in the wrong position but the way the car had been constructed it posed lot of problems to get the rack in the correct position as you can see from the photos extensive alterations were carried out to make the car work the car turned out for its first event on sunday 14 th oct at bradwell air field a apprehensive robin not driven for over a couple of years did not know what to expect but after a couple of runs he was back in the grove with comments like it drive like my old escort now and it turns in and it goes round corners robin finished a respectable 2nd overall another success story for rpm rallyworld

Rally Liege Press Report

Rally Liege Press Report
Ian James and Tim Babbage representing the Federation of British Police Motor Clubs travelled to Belgium to take part in the 53rd International Police Rally in their GrpA BMW M3 prepared by RPM Performance.

The Gentleman to the right of the image - Ian James

A strong field of 5 Guy Coulsol Evo 9 Mitsubishis headed the field being driven by top Finnish and Belgian police rally crews. A lone WRC Subaru and Ian's BMW making up the top seven starters.

Ian finished second last year, and was looking to go one better. Bob Stokoe was away on BRC duties so Ian had enrolled Tim Babbage from the Avon & Somerset police to sit alongside him for the first time.

Castermans and Bourguinon from Belgium last years winners started at number one in a Group A Evo 9, followed by Erkki Vikman and Kari Mustalahti from Finland in the number two slot. The weather was warm and dry and suited the BMW, and we were soon trading times with the Grp N Evo 9 of Franco Arlotti and Alain Duchene from the Liege police.

On the last loop of four stages Arlotti was just 2 seconds ahead. On the first stage Arlotti dropped 5 seconds, an uncharacteristic error, or just a bit of pressure. On the second stage he was 4 seconds faster. On the penultimate stage Ian pulled the stops out and was 5 seconds faster, an all or nothing run which was as near perfect as one could get!!. And on the final stage Arlotti was just one second faster. Ian & Tim finishing 3rd overall and 1st in class, beating Franco and Alain by just 3 seconds.

Franco was as ever generous in defeat, we had wagered rally jackets to the winner, so I picked up a very smart Royal Auto Motor Union of Liege rally jacket to add to the collection!

A great rally, and thanks to Baz, Lester Owen who prepared the engine, and the service team of Craig and Mark who had a rather uneventful day.
