Video of Solowow (and Wilson?) testing Fiesta RRC (and s2000). The video is with english subtitles.

Any info about the time difference of the S2000 and RRC?

Yes, i have info that rrc was slower than S2000. source is trusted. also this source said me that solowow bought new fiesta rrc. i don't know how long was the stage where they tested but rumors talking about 2 seconds for S2000.

That’s very surprising result. I would have thought that the RRC would have been faster because of the higher torque, and therefore more power at lower revs, and better acceleration out of tighter corners.

Remember that Solowow knows Fiesta S2000 very well and RRC is a new car for him. That's probably the reason of worse times.

It's for me not so surprising everyone said for the Mini that it would be difficult to be faster than the top S2000 like it was in Ypres with Snijers because of the lack of HP thanks to 30 mm restrictor. Every mm let you win 16.6 HP I think.

The dependence is exponential as area is what counts
But anyway I agree that with 30 mm it can hardly be faster, maybe on gravel.
