Nick Williamsons 'Owens' Escort cosworth.

At combe today, qualified with a 1:12 lap time

Norris designs new evo managed a 1:15 lap in qualifying, to give you an idea of how quick it is!

the fastest track going cosworth i have seen!

anyone know what he has done to the chassis more than anything, it was on rails!
im guessing it was about 600bhp.

these are the only pics i could find/rob lol




the car now has a WRC rear spoiler.


EDIT: VIDEO HERE IF YOUTUBE STILL WORKS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajAZNB4FUOk

I sold him the gearbox 1.12 is very quick, how busy was the track during qualifying?? I had already decided that the next time I'm at Combe the car will be running full hammer (same spec as 200mph run)

Cool man Nice to see an Escos playing the jap boys up

The problem I have at Combe is slower traffic, I just can't presume they have seen me and have to give them plenty of room on the corners... Saves accidents but hurts my times.

lol. ive got a video clip of a car nearly hitting yours up there too lol

and the crowd saying 'oooh' lol


will upload them in a bit..

to be fair, i THINK the esc cos was on slicks, and the evos on road tyres (as thats all they are allowed) but still a BIG difference in times.. the evos ran in the same race as that esc cos in the end.. and were a long way behind. (the 360 ferraris were even further behind!)

That sort of explains the time difference's between the EVO's if they were on the Combe race series control tyre the they were on road spec Falkens. Get the vids up then

PS: forgot to say he did that 1:12 with windscreen wipers on, in the damp


White Evo 9 is the new norris designs car
obviously the white esc cos is the car in question!


EDIT: YOUTUBE IS playing up and is taking ages to approve the vids,, sorry !



I know the camera is a bit shakey when zoomed in, but


put it on full screen and HOW FAST does the norris car
look down the straight over the back the esc cos must have been as fast or faster!
