Those of you following our dude Ken Block's rally exploits know that the DC co-founder has switched sides. For 2010, KB has left the Subaru team and set up shop with the Monster Ford Rally team. And we're stoked! It's not that we don't love Subie's—they're great, have been great and if they ever decide to reenter rally racing, will more than likely be great again. But when it comes to rally racing, Ford holds a dear spot in our hearts.
From the Ford Escort MK2 to Ken's all-new Fiesta rig. But if we had to pick one Ford it'd be the Escort RS Cosworth. Built as a homologation special to get FIA approval so Ford could race it in the World Rally Championship, this turbocharged, four-wheel drive hatchback carried on Fords storied rally record and gave gear heads one of the sickest hot hatches to ever hit the road. You can't fully appreciate the new without respecting the old, so keep reading to see what made the Escort RS Cosworth so damn cool.
