Forza Motorsport 4 News ...
The 1992 model Ford Escort RS Cosworth is a very welcome addition to the Forza 4 franchise for us here @ NOG Motorsport ...
If there was ever a car that was top of our lists for tuning then surely it has to be the Escort RS Cossie. Now, let us all pray .. please, please let this awesome little speed freak be as devilish in the virtual world of forza motorsport 4 as it was back in my day on the little country roads of Wales, hammering the life out of the car whilst playing 'smoke on the water' at full volume at 3am in the morning!
Initially the 'real' Ford Escort RS Cosworth had what can only be described as a punchy 2 litre, turbocharged engine that used to rocket towards any available corner, squiggle on the brakes as the sudden realisation that it was probably safer to apply the brakes in the first place ... get its rear end nicely tweaked towards the bank and then throttle down and head for the exit again at what seemed then to be break-neck speeds. It trully was a classic feel to the car, probably due to the permanent 4 wheel drive system and the exceedingly generous 34 / 66% split on the AWD differentials.
Look out Forza 4 . .the escort cossie is heading straight for you and from the buzz I'm getting from the seat of my pants it will definitely be one of the first cars to get the NOG treatment upon release of the game. I'm pretty sure it will be tweaked for the likes of Positano where handling, speed and agility are pretty much paramount to laying down a good laptime. I can also invisage the car doing well @ Fujimi, Suzuka West, Laguna Seca and a few others hopefully.
Lets see what the official Forza Motorsport 4 release brings and I will be sure to update this posting once I get my hands on the almighty 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth ... it had better be almighty else I may cry !
