Re: fiesta st170 turbo
good development mate
parked behind you for a little while at the top of the queing lane at pod but you didnt return to your car whilst i was there, it was outside the toilet so maybe you were doing a number two after those quick times you made
bit of a long shot but you dont still have that stage1 gear box do you?

i moved mine to a dif garage yesterday just a road away as 2 next to my old one was smashed into this weekend! ran like a dream till it spat the pipe off the inlet-map sensor a min into the drive think i need some tighter pipe or some clamps!!

Re: fiesta st170 turbo
thats a good time buddy! seen the 2.9 sec cossie and a 4 sec anglia sounded like a v8 or somthing ?? not sure what it was?
also saw a cossie catch fire on the track near the end which was a shame as it was doing some quick laps also saw a beautiful focus ( may of been cossie powered?) totaled the front end and side which was another shame!!

no not this weekend mate the 17th.
still on the 215/50/15R888s will be getting some 225s soon tho.
theres no point in rushing your car mate as long as its out at central day ,would be nice to get a few runs in next to yours.
