We definitely need the Lotus Carlton, Commodore or Falcon or all three. We need a RWD four door sport sedan from the 1980s.

Well, that’s sorted for the 240. Stage 1 weight reduction drops the weight from 1324kg to 1191kg. Sweet!
All engine parts max at 354 BHP. Sweet again! Stroke & bore raise engine capacity to 2086cc.

Edit: Updated OP with Volvo 240 specs. 320-340BHP/1100kg
The wagon is nice. Has a 50:50 weight distribution at Stage 2 weight reduction(1098kg) with 2 kg of ballast to bring weight up to 1100kg. 96% power is 339 BHP(606.93 PP). 97% power at 343 BHP(608.03 PP).

Based on the 1990 specs from ATCC Gibson Motorsport R31
Stock body, 17” wide wheels, wide offset

The R31 and RS 500 can go toe to toe blow for blow.

Adjusted the E30 SE to 1990/1991 BHP, due the rise in performance of the RS 500 and new R31 entering Group A.

The 240 works best in the early days of Group A. Setting the R31 to the debut four-cylinder non-GTS-R spec 340 BHP/1070kg, RS 500 to 360-370 BHP/1035kg, E30 non-evo 300 BHP, Supra 370 BHP, 190 E 260-310 BHP.
It just can not hang with the later spec cars.

Class C cars Same specs. Levin has a 557.18 PP versus Sprinter 557.16 PP due to the more slippery nose.

Matched the Natural Frequency(NF) of the RS500 and the rear is planted. Can induce oversteer and also “feel” when the rear is about to lose grip. Way more natural than before 1.49.

Found a new issue today using RS500. After a crash I decided to park and watch the rest of the cars go by. I put my foot on the brake to stop the car from rolling and the engine began to rev and the accelerator segment on the hub started filling.
I tried both mercedes and BMW with no issue but all my Cosworths did it.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Cant say that I noticed that when I make spectating videos. Was the RS 500 in a gear other than 1st gear?

Yeah but it would do it when I started a time trial then hit the brakes not just the spectating incident. I tried the other Cosworths and it did the same.
I checked my pedals and they were OK with other cars also.
Strange.
