Finally beat this bad ass T66 supra turbo with my ford

[Cosworth]

Some advice, a mustang can beat a supra off the line but those bloody supra can move once the boost build.

This guy i know has a supra with a T66 on it giving about 500 BHP (Assumed) and my stang could never beat him, i tried and tried new gears, 306, etc...

Reinssured my Ford Escort last weekend after a winter of work on it, and I beat him by one full car lentgh.

and no its not a escort from the US, its a british escort cosworth. in the winter i put in an anti-lag system and it seemed to help alot.

then yesterday i was at the track and gunning it off the line in 1 st gear and i heard a clunk, i broke my prop shaft, oh well time for an uprated version.

but the important thing is i beat the supra, and i'll bw looking for the guy with the skyline R34 very soon.

cheers

A ferrari 360 modena, a porche GT3, skyline R34, and a T66 turbo'd supra.... im having a hard time believing you dude. I have only seen 1 of the above cars in southern Ontario (the ferrari). Where do you live?

Yeah, those Cosworth Escorts pack easily over 300HP stock on a AWD light chassis. Nothing like moms Escort though. It's like the Focus RS they use in Europe. Maby Ford will bring them to this side of the world due to the popularity of the WRX/STI and EVO.

Anyone who underestimates the escort cosworth needs to watch Getaway in Stockholm II it shows a 450hp cosworth running 11.1's at the track and running with a 500 hp supra on the highway running from the cops (which never caught them) the cosworth is insane.

Put a turbo on that stang though and see if the Supra guy is still laughing...

I was trying to remember the name of that vid. They do some sweet AWD donuts at the end too.

oh those cars are really cool. what's the specs on those? 1/4 miles times stock and such

Nice little cars and I like them better than a Dahlback VW Golf, but 32 grand for a used one? Nuh uh. Even if it has been shipped here and is legal, nuh uh.
