Dex Question for MG Man

[spike]

If I put the 1600cc Kent back in the Escort, will the car be classed in GS or HS? The Escort supposed to be 1940lbs, and you have seen the engine. I would much prefer to remain in GS in this car. (Not too keen on a 1300cc, but that may be the only other option.)

I am pretty sure it would be a GS car
I know some dolts would see an escort and bawl ESP or some nonesense........but a stock 1600 makes meagre BHP

Any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with.

It's the suspension that's adjustable. The engine is a geezer-powered 2 stroke (3 will kill it) Azkracha. The timing real off, and not all plugs firing. But it have plenty torque. A japanese upgrade that will definitely give it a snappier response and a longer run time would be a bright young thing (broad where a broad should be broad) - no english necessary

Who wants to live forever?
But what a way to go.... Interesting form of suicide, though... with a japanese tool - would that be some form of hara-kiri?

MG, I would hate after having done all that shuffling of cars n engines (Kent, Pinto, Escort, Viva, Cortina, 302... watch them, watch them, round they go...) for some brightstar to get me kicked out of GS - where all the fun is.
I suppose I shouldn't build the Viva just yet... toss the kent in the Escort when I finish it, and run it a few times. If "some dolts see an escort and bawl ESP or some nonesense", well... I'll just put the V back together...
(hears a smash... sees Alan among the remains of a piggy-bank, counting change to make a hundred with a CARS query FORM beside him...)

First On Race-day! (f...ing old rusty derelict...)
