Reynard F3 History-
``Working on the "why change a winning design" principle the 873 was a further evolution of the 863. The biggest change was at the rear where a new modular gearbox/oil tank casing that carried the suspension links and the anti-roll bar was utilised. This allowed for a narrower engine bay and smaller engine cover with the resultant aerodynamic gains. In addition the track was narrowed whilst the wheel base was lengthened.
Evolution proved the way to go and results were excellent, the British Championship fell to Johnny Herbert with Martin Donnelly and Thomas Danielsson finishing third and fourth. In Japan Ross Cheever headed the standings, he used a Ralt RT30/86 in the opening rounds but then switched to a Reynard. Jo Winkelhock was runner-up in Germany as was Rickard Rydell in Sweden. Finally the EFDA F3 Cup went the way of Dave Coyne's 873``
