      Ycx!!

      not long in from work and the excitment is just too much in my household!! As John Jnr shoves a copy of retro ford in my hands and starts to recite the feature word-by-word!!! lol

      Looks just fantastic in the magazine and even better in the flesh!!

      A credit to you Gary.

        Couldnt get if of the line but beat both a evo and a subaru wrx.
        The engine is mild tuned not on its limits.

        lol , subaru's , evo's etc are my favourite pray and they go alright due to their super traction off the line (and turbo) . I still like sliding all over the place for 2 gears and then nailing them once the 175's have finally gripped . Plus i like deafening the foooookers with trumpet roar , very satisfying !!!!!!!
        Running 13's whilst street legal is very good especially in a full weight "comfy" car . We've had a good bit of competition running down here for 2 years now and only a few N/A 4 cylinder cars can run 13.5secs or faster whilst street legal at Santa Pod (uphill and windy ) and most of those are stripped out lightweight trailer queens . Hardly any proper full weight cars can do it though , i've only seen about 3 do it in 20 years !!!!!

        Tick tock goes the clock and the clock don't lie .
        12.4sec to 109mph With NO turbo , NO gay trailer , NO slicks , NO gas , NO race fuel and NO bits missing . Beat that !!!!

              Gaz i double checked it was in the 14's not 13's
              but that was with a boot full and 30 odd in the tyres.

              Dont know what it will be like with the cam change but its a different car now
