Rally cars are based on production cars i.e. using the same actual production body/frame but strenghtened a lot. For example, our cars have tack welded joints but for a rally car, they bead weld the whole joint or skin. They also double up on some of the walls specially where the suspension points are located plus addition of stress bars. In some cases, or the more exotic ones use a hybrid composite pieces (carbon fiber/kevlar/titanum mix).rollininstyle2004 said:That looks like fun, i wonder what kind of suspension they are running to be able to withstand that drop back to the ground :roll:

what would you think is a better car in the ford lineup? small, 4-cylinder up front, presumable a stiff unibody and decent suspension design (not that much of it is used for the race setup).Kiyoshi said:Still wondering why a Ford Focus is a good platform to make a rally car off of...

don't be hard, just turn the "page" (pic of the car-top right) and there they are.Macabre said:The Focus is the only short wheelbase 4cylinder car they've got, and also the replacement for the Escort which was their old rally car.
