Baz cannon
Not only a rally engineer but also a very good proto type engineer as well Baz was involved in lots of proto type programs while at Gordon spooners.
The first RS500 escort Cosworth built by spooners and the first escort Cosworth two wheel drive proto type car. Baz has been responsible for many Cosworth conversions in his long career in Motorsport which now spans over 30 years . Ford Cosworth engines have gone into Mazda Mercedes Renault's and one of his latest projects the rs focus 4x4 500 hp conversion. one of the more recent conversions was for mg where Baz fitted a 400 hp ford Coswoth engine and 6 speed xtrac gearbox into a MGF believe it or not fantastic looking project car .but only the one ever made.
Mercedes 190 project to fit 400 hp ford Cosworth engine and gear box into a 190 body shell a lot of hidden problems lied beneath the surface but they were all over come to give a fantastic unassuming car . next up again using the ford Cosworth engine a sierra estate this was converted with a 380 hp Cosworth engine and gearbox sport suspension Cosworth brakes and a full leather interior stunning performance but not sure of the colour
Baz also responsible for the focus T190 T 230 and the rally version the T250 this was the for runner to the RS focus which ford later put into production.
So if it is a Cosworth conversion you require or a total bespoke conversion doing then you should be giving Baz cannon a ring

R.P.M's M3 Belgium Preperations
The R.P.M M3 BMW Prepares to go to Belgium
Baz Cannon is hoping that this season the M3 can go all the way and win its first rally. Over the last 2 seasons the car has come very close with class wins, second and thirds but no overall victory. Baz is hoping the new engine will give Ian James the edge he needs for that first overall victory.

R.P.M performance over the winter months have been heavily involved in the complete rebuilding of Mark Gooday's Lotus 340R.
R.P.M are hoping to start where they left off at Brands Hatch, on the last race of the 2007 season with a podium finish.
Baz says "the car is completely different from last year, it has more power and is a lot lighter with other differences to the transmission and aero package".
Mark had a short test at Snetterton this week and was over the moon with the cars performance.
The result at Brands could all be decided by the weather rather than the performance as snow is forecasted for the Easter weekend.
