i could look at this anglia for hours i cant believe how complex it all is and how everything is custom made to inter twine with eveything else. loved the alloy tube welded throught the charge cooler tank for the throttle cable to go through and the charge cooler rad that vents through the floor from below the headlight

i did spend a while looking around that 'anglia' not much of an anglia really haha. awesome bit of design and fabrication work.

I know that using fibre glass or carbon fibre is a good light weight material to save bodyweight with, but I think it was taking it to the extreme with just removing body work :wink:

posse's and wilsys escort's both looked great as did drivers, and that gunmetal grey mk1 with the XE lump in

 

but as it got me there and back with zero hassle i've got to say my cortina pleased me the most ha ha :mrgreen:

yep thats mine it was my first show with it as its not long been finished,

i have to say i did get a warm welcome from many people & was very happy to be part of the osf stand & the attension the car got was amazing.

 

i will get some pics up....promise

Thats my mk1 cortina :):thumbsup:

 

Yes she was at chelsea last week! Really good day :)

 

cool

 

well your car is awesome sir!

me and my mate both agreed it was our favourite

Posted

loved the artwork on darren's scort, also agree with luke about the capri on bands thought that was ace last year, and the green zepher 6 still my fav from last year 8) (i want one), did anyone else see the grey corsair v6 that was next to the osf stand very cool imo :D:thumbsup:

I'm certainly biased to a particular flagged Mk1 Escort and a spangley yellow Mk2. There were so many top motors there that it would be impossible to choose. I'm deffo impressed with the quality of OSFs in attendance :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Cheers stuartp!! Makes it all worth it!

 

Kieron, best time was the 11.58! It was my first ever go at the pod yesterday so i think the car has more to give... on that run it lost power 3 quarters of the way down also so im hoping maybe next time 10s on the cards?! Might of hit a limiter of some sort so markshead thinks, he who maps it...

Had a good look round your motor too... top piece a kit and sounds awsome!!

 

cheers

That's good going mate - very impressive. :thumbsup:8)

 

What sort of power is it making and what was your terminal speed on runs with full power all the way to the end?

Posted

Toby, the 11.58 time was 119 terminal, also did a 11.9 at 120 then a 12 dead with 121 and a 12.2 at 114

 

The 12.2 i let off before the line as it was my first ever pod run and cocked up basically...

Got a poor start on the 12.0, wheelspin

The 11.9 also got a poor start, bogged down a bit..

 

As for power im not sure, somewhere around the 400hp i should think

 

Really enjoyed the new experience though and will def be back for more :thumbsup:

 

How come you werent there?

 

cheers

Lukey's Cortina, Escort21's Capper (these were already faves but great to see 'em in the metal) and the G.S.Escorts turbo pinto :thumbsup:

 

Very kind stoob!, went down really well even if i did get towed most of the way there and back due to blown head gasket! cheers again

:thumbsup: Thanks for the times mate. Flipping good first go! :ykt::mrgreen:

 

Long list of excuses as to my absence - dented car, still not fixed. 2 friends changed their mind on going, I weighed up the choices and considering the weather forecast thought I'd go to a family friends wedding and see how Sunday morning looked.

 

Got to bed too late, woke up too late, thought can't be bothered to risk the journey as it might rain and I couldn't race anyway :sad:

 

Wish I'd come just to see yours go! :thumbsup:

Sorry kieran, saw your siggy and put 2 and 2 together! Well your dads car is flippin awsome!

 

cheers
