sambo Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Posted January 9, 2008 Bloody hell, i come back from Holland and there is 12 pages of "hot debate"!! i was only curious as to the, in my eyes, well built and cool cars. So we have the RS9000 and Kevs YB turbo RS as the strip and power output daddies. Wayne's anglia is also an awesome car with an awesome engine under the bonnet. And as for the race cars, i can see that will be difficlt to determne but it would be interesting to just see how many peeps here have osf race cars! There's Andy Pipe and Mad mick but i cant think of any more??? And Gaz, i do wonder that how you can slate other peoples cars for having no interior, i.e back seats and heaters etc but do really quick strip times. you boast that your car has full street trim but what are your 1/4 mile times? It seems as though now you have the new N/A, 5 minute install cossie, you will have an excuse if it isnt that quick on the strip as you have "full road trim"!!! If your serious about racing and want a fast car, lose the weight. It is a simple question of physics!!!

If your serious about racing and want a fast car, lose the weight. It is a simple question of physics!!! the 5 minute install didnt take 5 mins did it,the 250bhp atmo pinto aint got 250 bhp has it .get the fook on the stripe,track what ever gaz and start proving if/when this bloody thing of yours lives up to the super hype m8.lovely car no dought but at the moment the 197hp atmo cossie aint done shit m8.peace
novanut64 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 Surely Trevor's RS win's fastest 1/4? I'm sure he's run 9's & it is road legal. In bits now though I think! All true....... Should be back at the tracks at Easter tho' i would love to see your car run every time i see you seem to have your head under the bonnet Thats where you see most people at pod with their drag cars,most of the V8 ones They spend the whole day setting the car up,do one run or two then go home kev when i am not helping dal1cos i help jeff thurston with his 557ci mustang on a peak performance day we had 12 runs all between 9.97-10.4 on hoosier quick times

I think theres always going to be 'hot debate' when discussing who has the fastest car or time, always good to watch what people have to say though. Also, debates would not be the same without Gaz's input, proper wind up merchant!

Mk 1 Mark Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 Who has the fastest car. . . . . . Not a clue.. but having the fastest car also depends on the driver. There are a few very fast,Quick cars out there, and i have been in a few of them. Now as for BHP fiqures i have seen 200 bhp pintos blow 350 + bhp cossy`s at brands hatch. Take kev warn`s car for instance, awesome loads of power and he knows how to drive it, but Ford fair he was wheelspinning most of the way round, So getting a car to handle and on a track is one thing and getting one to handle @ the pod is another. The age old question,power without grip arises? But there is also the added question of the driver that is also a major factor, Some people can get in someones car and run a quicker time than the owner. It happens and its not just the car alone But its the package...car...suspension.....set up...engine...tyres...drivers... which makes a fast car. Ickys Orange Mk2 with the 2.2 pinto was Awesome Micks Mk1 Awesome Cossiematts Mk2 Awesome... And i have been in all 3 cars and there some of the best trackday cars i have been in. Ricky Hutchings Mk2 will be awesome and i know Ricky can drive Andypipe mk1 1600 xflow another well set up mk1 and andy can pilot his car as well. Pig the looonatic maybe getting his power down aswell All in all 2008 should be the year, everyone will have there cars out to play Will Gaz`s Mk1 run a time and quieten the disbelivers Will Wayne WPE get his Angrybox out to play will Kev 16v get a car out this year Will Mick go faster @ the ring Will Kev Mk2 Go N/A Or keep it Turbo`d and get te times he wants @ the Pod? Who will win the OSFDC Who will beat Jason elvy? KJ ? The Harris family? Will Toby go any faster How will the Duratec lot do this year, cossitmatt Mk1 Matt Even Lloyd all going duratec to name a few? And Which one of Ickys car will be the kiddy? All will be found out in the Year 2008 Cant wait roll on 2008 when the flag/green light drops the bulls shit stops Its not who has the fastest.... But how much it makes you smile while your out doing what you do best....

But how much it makes you smile while your out doing what you do best.... Well said Mark,its all about enjoying your car full stop! I know mine isnt the fastest around a track,but that can change with some sticky tyres etc,ive got the car to handle and feel right now,so just need some grip and it should feel better I think if someone like Steve scott or Mad Mick drove it they would probably go quicker,im always frightened of smashing the car up on track,its frightening when you floor it on the straights and your going so fast 120mph+ then you cant stop the fooker Standard 195 road tyres and 450-500bhp in a mk2 escort on a track is just too much Oh and Icky said about your 40th next month,just after my 32nd birthday Be nice to buy you a drink
novanut64 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 Always sounds like Gaz is trying to get everyone to bring a knife to a gun fight....... Run what you brung and HOPE you BRUNG enough!! will the cortina be out this year tom or are you still gonna piss off lambo's with your renault

Run what you brung and HOPE you BRUNG enough!! will the cortina be out this year tom or are you still gonna piss off lambo's with your renault Hiya Paul, i do hope to get it to the track this year. Not sure what month but i hope this year, hehe As for the renault i got the nitrous ready now so the Lambo is history. How about the Nova? Any plans to come and frighten some 4 pots?? Forgot to add, think i'm going to go out and watch the king of europe thing this year.
novanut64 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 nova is entered for KOE but there are many 4pots on here that are probably quicker will need some track time before june at the pod and north weald will be using bfg drag radials the airfield at brustem looks to be tarmac so hopefully better than poland should be a large english group this year
Mr Sam Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 mine is the quickest 1.1 fezza as huxley cheated
