My mate called round to see me today in his rally prepared Mk2 Escort. Anyone who has ever followed rallying will recognise the Mk2 as the car to have, before all the four wheel drive Subaru's, Evo's and the like came on the scene. It has taken him 8 years and somewhere between £30k and £40k to complete and has been a bit of a standing joke that it would never be finished The engine is a 250 bhp Honda vtec, which doesn't kick the variable valve timing in till 6000 rev's, driving a 6 speed, quick shift gear box. All driving the rear wheels He took me out for a spin around some of the back lanes today, clean underwear needed on return! Off to a classic Ford Rally in the Lake District in a fortnight so hope things go well ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

A mate of mine has one of them, memory lane at his house, he does rally sprints etc, he also uses a Porche. He is Roger Moran,multi british Hill climb champion,his son Scott is now champion, they have a hell of a hill climb car,just like a formula one car. 0 to 100 mph and back to 0mph in 31/2 seconds or something like that. |

I know those roads Scraggy, they are quick roads as the 125mph bears witness to. You wouldn't want to do that just after the pheasants have been realised though or you'd be wearing one. Oh, and get those brakes sorted out!

Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that who cares? ....... He's a mile away and you've got his shoes!
