    This episode was funny, he was offended by Mike buying the second set of wheels then proceeds to add a third wing the car never had! Ha, great work either way!

    Glue is meant to provide a permanent bond between to components.. the red stuff on the threads of those screws are called thread lock and is color specific.. red is high torque to re over blue is medium and green is low.. all thread lock is by design meant to hold a srew in place under certain circumstances but can also be removed for repair.

    Strip the engine to replace a rear main seal. Couple of self tapper screws and a pair of pliers pull it out then gently tap in the new one.

    • @calibrazxr750

      The designer of the car actually designed it with a third spoiler, which he explains in the full episode and later on it was proven to add a significant increase in downforce. It is a shame that you did not do your due diligence before commenting.

    The short story regarding the “third wing myth.”
    THE MYTH: There never was a third wing. It was never a conception or even considered a design element for the Escort RS Cosworth by Ford or its true designers. This was simply a publicity myth created by someone for a TV show, which then spread to UA-cam videos and interviews. In fact, this myth has been spoken so loudly and widely that it has become a bit of (fake) car design lore. It was claimed that a designer (who never worked on this car at all) designed the car and its mythical third wing. This would’ve given the car more downforce. But it was rejected by Ford because of costs.
    THE REALITY: There was never a third wing designed or proposed for this car, for many reasons (Cost not being one of them), which the real designers, John Bull, Ian Callum, John Wheeler & Steven Harper will happily reiterate.
    STEVE SAXTY BOOK: SECRET FORDS: www.stevesaxty.com/secretfords
    Steve Saxty’s podcast w/Steven Harper. One of the two rightly credited designers, along with Ian Callum, of the Escort RS Cosworth. They worked with John Bull (Chief Dynamics Engineer) and John Wheeler (Resident Engineer)
    At 28:20 is where Steve discussed the “third wing lie”.
