Too long.

Hows the track weapon?

[richy]

going well, just a shed load to finish as usual but it is a clio lol

[big hp]

Starting to look now. Not in a rush. a f7r 5 turbo seems favourite. Or a fiesta rst hmmmm.

wont be road legal though, tow it with astra van.

[richy]

mine wont be road legal in the next few months, just need to sort a car to tow with thats all!

i wouldnt get a fiesta rst if u want a car that handles, there abit poo lol

as proven on a ford RS 2 day trackday at croft, my 16v(running 1.8) panned most on track lol

Heh Coops, did your trip to Singapore mess up your English, or is Singlish not the only claim to the use of lah to punctuate every sentence? :D Anyway, a nice warm and muggy holiday to one and all!

Long time no see :)

Surly the fun in doing trackdays is driving the car there, ragging it round and driving it back, towing it takes all the fun outa it, plus limits you to only driving the ****er a few times i year

id get a fezza rst myself...i do like the williams, and the handling is brilliant. but turbocharged engines are brilliant. if u even blip the throttle u get a bit of fun each time. when ur not revving the nuts off a williams engine its just like driving a 2ltr laguna or sumthing, bit dull. fiesta? i dunno, but scary with torque steer, but man their mid range pull is impressive

This might just be the origin of this very chavvy local turn-of-phrase :) So there's a bit worker-class liverpool in all local car mechanics, ex-con, bookies, bouncers etc. That explains a lot. But, I don't want to generalise :-)

they just dont handle though lol great if u want to go in a straight line(after tuning it up) as there about as responsive as a drugged up elephant! lol

[titcharoony]

im not entirely sure about that, they can corner well, better than an r5 turbo round the twistys, just equires alot more from the driver. i find the clio to be the opposite, great round corners, but the full on staight line fun is limited by a boring feeling engine........i miss my r5 turbo

[richy]

but weres the fun in going in a straight line? lol

[titcharoony]

i rarely overtake going round corners, know what i mean? ;)

[richy]

tracks arnt straight tho? trackcar for tracks with corners?

[MAXIBOY]

needs to be able to do both well..... 8)
