    Dont need to! I love off road racing and in fact spent more time around NORC events last year than rallying and know what most base chassis look like. Check out the Lofthouse Freelander for example.

    Been doing some more thinking since my original post and you know what I never thought twice at the time that most of the Group B cars bore little or no resemblance to machines in the manufacturer ranges. A RS200 minus its front and back bodywork wasnt too disimilar to the image of the Matton car. Its just that they were manufacturer teams and not like single seaters built by men in sheds.

    Happy to review when more info and images become available.

    To be fair, the RS200 was built by Reliant, and that ‘factory’ could easily have been classed as a shed!

    Group B tubular frames didn't look much different.
