    Any 73 RS Race Cars around?

    Does anyone know of any 73 RS race cars with period race history? I know many RS's raced, but I don't recall seeing any real RS race cars on the board or mentioned in vintage racing circles.

    Photos appreciated.

    Mark,

    Your right, lots of RS's raced…

    Two come to mind with just the members of this board…

    Steven Childs' tangerine right-hand light-weight RS rally/raced from it's original delivery in the UK.

    Will Sanchez's tangerine RS was locally 'club raced' not to long before he bought it…

    And, although he doesn't frequent this board, Richard Price locally raced the wheels off his #0016 'first turntable displayed/first customer delivered' white/blue RS up until he retired it a couple of years ago for a total restoration…..

    I'm sure they're are other's on this board that might be willing to share there RS's competitive history…….

    there is a (one owner) RS in australia that competes in historic racing. the owner progressed from club spint events to wheel to wheel historics a few years ago.

    the car had a long life as a daily driver, has done over 300000 miles from memory, has been driven across australia - its led/is leading a great life!
