joker Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 this is the cossie engine that runs 7.4 sec@178mph 60ft 1.1 secds. its amazing to see this modified mk1 escort while the green lights glow .
Rick Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 prob cuz there aint a steel panel in sight
GJUK Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Its not really much of an escort any more is it!
joker Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 its a space frame mate it goes to 8.00 secds without nos as well. but seeing this car its like a plane without wings..this is it.
Guest HPEjadey1 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Its not really much of an escort any more is it!Running them times i dont think it matter's do you, what a car luv it joker
joker Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 hi jadey all i know its so expensive to reach that guy ..
James HPE Motorsport Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Thats awesome Joker! And thats some turbo on there, I could fit my head in that bloody thing!!!!! Do you know how much the car weighs complete without driver and the power of the engine!!! As for the comments from other people! What the hell is wrong with you people??? This guy is simply showing us what sort of kit they have in Malta and you have nothing positive to say about it! I would put money on you not being able to build something as quick IF you had the money to do it!!! This is just a more extreme example of what KJ has done to his escort!!! Rant Over!
ASBO CAPRI Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Thats the way u got to go if u want to run 7s. Stock escort chassis aint going to cut it when u get to this level. Awsome bet its impressive to c on the strip. Any idea of how much horse power? Keep the pics comming of these maltese drag weapons.
GJUK Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Its not really much of an escort any more is it!Running them times i dont think it matter's do you, what a car luv it joker Was just saying how much its been modified, dont get on my case. Its a vey nice car.
joker Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 im not 100% but if i say it has a 70 psi of boost ////////

Its a vey nice car. Then why not say "WOW, THAT ESCORT HAS BEEN MODIFIED ALOT!!!" Not "ITS NOT REALLY MUCH OF AN ESCORT ANYMORE IS IT!!!"
Rick Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 my comment wasnt an insult. why do people get so touchy. no i couldnt afford to do that, no i couldnt build an engine like that. but as stated, theres not much escort there is there... its not an insult. just a comment
joker Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 thats it mate we cant make one of these monsters for us its to much and you have to drive it first i think rick . its all modified from front to rear with the best parts like 9 inch diff ,jerico air shifter gearbox and so and so . theres too much to say about it mate ..
Mr Sam Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 As for the comments from other people! What the hell is wrong with you people??? This guy is simply showing us what sort of kit they have in Malta and you have nothing positive to say about it! I would put money on you not being able to build something as quick IF you had the money to do it!!! This is just a more extreme example of what KJ has done to his escort!!! Rant Over! there obviously not drag racers mate, no matter how fast you go you allways wanna go faster its nice to see what happens with a car when someone has the time and money todo so who wants to tube frame the anglia for me
James HPE Motorsport Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 my comment wasnt an insult. why do people get so touchy. no i couldnt afford to do that, no i couldnt build an engine like that. but as stated, theres not much escort there is there... its not an insult. just a comment PEOPLE get touchy because PEOPLE can be bothered to write comments on other peoples cars, but they cant be bothered or choose not to write anything positive about them!!!
ASBO CAPRI Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 So would this car run an auto box like a powerglide with trans brake? or is it manual?
Mr Sam Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 i dont think even muhamed ali could change gear quick enough to run an 8
joker Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 it has a jerico air shift gearbox mate.
LEONMEX Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 I like it alot bit of a power wheelie like a superbike going on there would love to see this run
dragaddict Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 to run under 8.5 the car has to be modified because you won't run strait down the but it will run like a snake
ASBO CAPRI Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 plus they would probably kick u off the track if u ran that time with stock chassis. A 7 second car in the uk has to have a chrome molly tube chassis otherwise it aint legal to race.
Rick Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 my comment wasnt an insult. why do people get so touchy. no i couldnt afford to do that, no i couldnt build an engine like that. but as stated, theres not much escort there is there... its not an insult. just a comment PEOPLE get touchy because PEOPLE can be bothered to write comments on other peoples cars, but they cant be bothered or choose not to write anything positive about them!!! maybe we didnt get chance to write anything positive because someone jumped in all defensive. Its obviously an impressive bit of kit, that goes without saying. but you cant go raving because someone said theres not much escort left, cuz there isnt...
dragaddict Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 for us its still an escort just for saying. with mine when i ran 9.8 i had a little problems holding it
Rick Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 id imagine with that kinda acceleration you walk away with stained pants
dragaddict Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 when i am in 3rd gear then you se the acceleratoin of a cosworth when the boost gives a full shot the car accelerates so hard that the rear of the car begins to swing like the tail of a fish
