Looks very impressive...

However could all those quoted figures be actually correct? Sounds like it'd leave v8's at the starting line...

in the street fords mag i have, its a colour similar to hot chilli red.

just so you guys know, the caravan towing record was beaten by a Dodge Viper. they needed an 8.3L V10 to bring down our 4.0!

It was also beaten by a Mk5 Escort Cosworth that ran 198mph without the van, but only 124ish with the van

Its not *that* quick down the 1/4... simply because its not set up for it.
circuit suspension/manual is not very 1/4 mile friendly.
