Hi,

I am a Motorsport Engineering student in Bristol and am writing a dissertation on rally car suspension set-up.

I would like to specialize this project on the Ford Fiesta RS WRC but in order to do this I need to know all the dimensions etc. of the suspension mounting points. Does anyone know where i can get this information? Because as much as I'd like to say I have one parked out back I don't. frown Any sort of information would be a massive help.

Thank you in advance.

Rob

I am in the process of contacting M-Sport, hopefully get a cheeky visit to Cumbria.

Thanks for the quick reply.

If M-Sport aren't interested perhaps focusing on the Fiesta R5 might be more viable? There are far more of these privately owned by people who might be happy to help you out.

Try contacting privateers in the national rallies runing Fiestas.

Grahma Coffey runs an FiestaRS on the tarmac rounds.

Melvyn Evans also has one in his garage, hes primarily a scooby specialist but may have some info for you.

Alex Laffey runs an R5

cont think off the top of my head who else currently has a Fiesta but maybe even try one of the WRC privateers.
If M-sport are no help. Reiger provide M-sport with the suspension, maybe they have dimensions available, its worth a try.
