kevmk2 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Nice pics, i think Andy was going for a top speed run instead of 0-6 He said he just couldnt stop the car.
Fiesta Steve Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 That Focus came past me on a trailer on the m6 near Warrington, it did look in a sorry state someone's got a hefty repair bill If he's clever he'd be trackday insured - for mullering expensive mahinery it's well worth the £75... If he was clever he wouldn't have crashed Thanks to everyone that came
Fiesta Steve Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Nice pics, i think Andy was going for a top speed run instead of 0-6 He said he just couldnt stop the car. He didn't hit anything did he ?
Admin Mk2Jo Posted August 3, 2009 Admin Report Posted August 3, 2009 Well done to all on the OSF stand - was good to see some new cars and some of the regulars I know it's a big plastic show but that is exactly the reason we need to keep on going there ... to keep the Old Motors alive and show the new plastics what a proper car looks like Nice pics too
Arfur Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 I know it's a big plastic show but that is exactly the reason we need to keep on going there ... to keep the Old Motors alive and show the new plastics what a proper car looks like Nail, head, Jo!
Haynesmanual Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Wish i could have made it But you guys and gals always do a top job!
Mk 1 Mark Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Stayed to the very end, As Lloyd had tracktime at 16.20pm...Wicked day, many thanks to one and all When i got back, there was only 2 cars on the stand, and the 2 x banners were left behind, so i cut the cable ties and have them safe and sound
Admin Mk2Jo Posted August 3, 2009 Admin Report Posted August 3, 2009 CheeRS for that Mark I had asked Mr Sam to pick them up for us if he was back there before us but you had already got them ... you are a diamond geezer mate .. but then you already knew that
Trig_112 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 The mullered Focus was Andrew Gallagher's. It is a real track weapon, a serious bit of kit. Its always very, very nice to see a good bit of old skool metal at Ford Fair, seeing your thousandth blue Focus RS isn't exactly inspiring, so keep up the good show by getting yourselves over there. I spent the vast majority of my day working on a mk1 Fez, and what a joy it was to stand back and look at it at the end of the day sitting there with much more glamour and character than what was surrounding it.
paul capri Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 for those who havnt seen it on The Rejects Club
Admin Mk2Jo Posted August 3, 2009 Admin Report Posted August 3, 2009 It's not nice to see anyone's pride and joy wrecked so I hope that both cars will be repaired and back to normal soon Although the Focus does look like it may need a little more than T-Cut to bring the shine back
Trevmk3 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 didnt realise andy had done that hopefully they can both be back up and straight soon
harris horse power Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 for those who havnt seen it on The Rejects Club spoke to andy today and his is already in the body shop so should be back out asap.
paul capri Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 I hope so, I can honestly say that was my favourite car of the day. First time Ive seen or heard it in the flesh before and I was amazed by it!
MK2Ed Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 If he's clever he'd be trackday insured - for mullering expensive mahinery it's well worth the £75... If he was clever he wouldn't have crashed Hilarious In some cases maybe so but the A.G. Motorsport focus crashed because it's steering failed
HARRIS REAL DEAL Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 for those who havnt seen it on The Rejects Club My poor little car it looks worse than it is really no chassis damage which im happy about im more disappointed with the digs down drivers side but as simon said its being repaired i should have it back in a couple of weeks and ready to play i have ordered myself a chassis car this morning and i am going to put WHM back road legal and possibly just show it because i dont like smashing it up Andy.
HARRIS REAL DEAL Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 I hope so, I can honestly say that was my favourite car of the day. First time Ive seen or heard it in the flesh before and I was amazed by it!Cheers mate
JP. Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Been there and saw all that. Had a great time out there and just arived at home this night. Experianced no real problems with the car on the trip. Just a leaky front seal was all that he suffered. Was a bit supriced we where the first one to arive at the stand (7am) but within half an hour some more members came up to join. We left Ford fair at about 1700 when most of us had allready left. Did found some nice spares too and did even found some room for it too take it with us. For those who thought our car was lowered..........well we had a spare Essex 3.1 sitting behind the frontseats ( eBay bargain...). Did a monday trip to Burton to get the parts we didn't found at the show and we are all sorted now. It was nice to meat you all again
Admin Mk2Jo Posted August 4, 2009 Admin Report Posted August 4, 2009 Nice to see the Capper on the stand again JP. Well done on making the trip over the sea to another UK show

Be nice to see it road legal again Andy, probably have just as much fun in it, if not more So you got another mk1 shell?
cortinasgoneforaburton Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 Hi all had a great day on sunday, should of been a gang of us but only me and my mate came doesnt matter i got both my cars on the stand, i thought there might of been more osf, but of the cars there i felt at home. It was nice to see a stand with no RS turbos on it thet were everywhere, but you see one you have seen them all. my cars were a red and black mk5 cortina and a purple mk1 granny. Next show for me is Blackpool Ford Day Sept 13th
RWDaddict Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 Was a good day weather was great which is always a bonus. Any one see the four door escort and toyota starlet entertaining the crowd drifting round the S`s just before the start finsh line. AWESOME best track action I saw.
