But if we realy want to bost am fitter, faster,stronger than you.... Oh I was there. Tongue in cheek and all that  Your car looked all over the place under acceleration and braking though. Do you have adjustable dampers? Looked like it needed stiffened up a bit. Also, my dad is bigger than yours  granny shifting not double clutching!

Life isn't a competition, you don't need to constantly put down everyone, puts a bad taste on the forum and on petrolheads.

i think i'll way in here.
i had a pretty good view from the other side of the hill and i have to say that the power really didn't matter much due to the conditions. (as evidenced by the 230hp Renault megane beating the 400hp TVR Sagaris - i so predicted that)
Mark had more experience of where and how late he could brake from the passenger rides earlier, not to mention other previous experience coming into play. B19 NOR on the other hand seemed to struggle with this, i mean no offence just constructive criticsm.
you seemed to be pumping the brakes for the first few laps, but instead of bringing the brakes to locking point and releasing you seemed to be jaming your foot on like a sledge hammer. Not sure if this is down to inexperience of the car on a track or just over exhuberance, but i would have definitely said that it cost you the race
again no offence intended, not trolling or trying to stir things up, just trying to be helpful

A membership with the AA lol.... It was one of the top 3 cars of the day not sure how they pic them like. Got a car plan kit must be worth £50. Was bit disappointing in pipe blowing off but thats what happens. Thats first time i have taken the car on a track and trying it out after having the work done to it.

Thanks that is the first time i have been in the car and on a track and lost power after the second lap as pipe blown off. I just got the car back from taking it from 350bhp to 540bhp everything is new a lot more power to get use to. Just had the suspension done on fri and not had the weather to try the car. But hope to get out and try it. Next year its all about learning no one knows everything. Should have went round in my Fat Machine would have been faster lol

Brought a smile to my face as I like my classic fords. Had a C plated Series 1 for a while, they only came in white.
