[geocool69]

alright..one of my mates works as a desginer for m sport....

this wknd was lucky enough to get a tour round the facility...which is loacted a couple of miles outside cockermouth near carlyle....

WTF...the amount of money involved in the focus rally car is !Removed! insane!!

every part..and i mean every part is custom made...

theyv got there own cnc shop..kevlar making facility... engine dyno ectectect..the list goes on and on..almost everything is made in house....

the parts store is like toys r us but for motorheads with f1 calipers...pukka carbon bits everywhere..stack dashes and any other motorsport part u could imagine...

and the place is spotless..like sqeaky clean...clinical almost.

sat in one of marco martins rally cars. so low and snug..

the whole operation is run at what used to be an old mental home..like a manor..

malcum wilson is a lucky man who definatly knows his stuff.

it was a great experience....

so they could make us some custom hoods then???????????

[geocool69]

in theory they could...but it would cost u way more than an arm and a leg..

Didn't really know much about M Sport until recently - I thought maybe they were involved in national rally as I knew Prodrive did the Scoobs.

Either way - :D Focus RS passed me the other day - I want one!!
