The RS200 was the Group B rally car that never was. It made it halfway through the 1986 season before the FIA pulled the plug and cancelled the rest of the season.

Does that mean you've never heard of the real Ford Escort?

There was a Sierra Cosworth, which couldn't win a rally to save it's life, then they switched everything over to the Escort to make the Escort RS, which had moderate successes in Group A and WRC rallying.

There's only 20 cosworth escorts in the country, and some dude in Princeton has a mint condition one he rips around in town.

Jason Priestly may have stared in a crappy teeny booper trash show (which I'm sure a few of you watched) . . . but until his crash he was actually gaining some respect in the Road Racing World (sure he crashed his first pro ride a few month after getting his seat and nearly died but no ones perfect). I know he moved through the ranks of the Toyota Atlantic series the same series Danica Patrick came out of . . . Not bad for some puffy looking guy with big side burns.
