    Standard car when we bought it in 1997. Scavenged around for parts from a very successful 128 rally car from the 80's. Found all of the gear and put it into this car. We rally in Tasmania in the up to 1600cc class and have been able to win stages and even beat some of the 2 litre cars. The engine will happily rev to 9000rpm and is heaps of fun. We confuse the guys on controls because they hear us coming and think it's a rotary.
