What's the fastest you've ever been in an osf....

[DAZZA]

Put to me by a mate earlier....... 140 as a passenger in a mates 3.1 Capri about 20 years ago. I'll be honest, I didn't enjoy it. Felt a bit shakey!

 

I suppose its all relative though, 120 in an old Anglia would be equally rectum loosening!

[deltamal]

120 when the Cossie was fitted, (Autobahn of coarse!) not tried the V6 yet....

[fatboycharlie]

90 balls out in the truck with th 4.6 cpw

[mr zefect]

Got 127 on sat nav and a few 120s with mate by

The side of me on a bike with my old 3,54 diff

Does feel like its going to explode though.

[PaulMags]

Feels like its just about to explode though!

[Kevin Mk2]

I wasn't driving, but 140ish in a Mondeo ST24 police car. Don't ask how or why.

[silverstreak]

125 in my trusty cortina

[zetecmk2]

[Escort Mk1 4 Door]

115-120 in 1.3 mk1 escort, used to suprise a few mates with zetec or pinto powered cars

[stuartp]

i have dared to nudge 100mph a couple of times in the escort - it had plenty more to give but i don't have the bottle

 

don't think any of the other old Fords i have owned could have managed 100

 

 

the sierra happily cruised at that (and higher) for miles though

 

 

private roads of course

[Yeomans22]

i was doing 90 in my capri but the radiator starting to blow.

 

had an indicated 90 in my escort but it wasn't liking it

[PCOE]

100 in the Cortina

Still loads more to go but it got a bit hairy-45 yr old steering box n all

(so I let off a bit)

In a 1.3 Mk1 How big was the turbo strapped to the side?

[Mad Mex]

142 on the GPS in my escort before running out of road... wasnt a motorway or a particuarly smooth road ill add, and run out of bottle when the windcreen wipers lifted of the windscreen and the front end went awfully light.... was plenty left in it too with a 3.54 diff... the only thing scarier was trying to stop the C**T in a hurry after my friend in the passenger seat wasnt terribly impressed either
