It's got Granada Cosworth front hubs.... seem to give a lot more lock than my twin cam Sierra did!

You can also drill these hubs to move the track rod end for even more as well

Sorry for the double post.

That was a quick answer, I was thinking about that, but wasn't sure.
I'm getting an 84 3door, and want to do an BOB swap and also change both front and rear axles for the grenada ones...

Good luck with the new car, been a big fan of the red one!

Got a set of camber shims waiting to go on. Really needs them as it kills the insides of the tyres...

Capri Brookie wheels? Hehe, well they're worth about four times that of the Mondy rims to start with Keeping mine, ET5 in 15" is a rare find in Ford-land!

Knockhill Licence? Nah, didn't get it.... had a spin on my judged run
Lots more practice through the year then it'll be full on next time!

damn! i had a set but ended up selling them with my old fiesta van!

shame about the spin mate, like you say, plenty time to dial the car in to how you feel comfortable now though eh? :P

hows the capri coming along kyle got anymore work done to it? was meaning to go see him about some work converting my escort to zetec or see rosco about it whatever one wanted to do the job! lol

Sometimes get bargain sets of those wheels coming up.... but not that often!

To be fair I think I'll be better off with a year of getting good at drifting rather than just diving into competing..... plenty time for all that

Sure either of them will sort you out with the conversion mate

Seven page feature! Plus a little pic on the cover of the new Fast Ford

Buying in London, sorting at Chizfab, skidding at Crail, skidding at Silverstone, skidding at Knockhill....
Go buy it!

Little vid' of my first session at the Crail SXOC day on Saturday.

I've only edited out the warm up laps we were told to do plus half a lap when the red flag was out.
So this is an honest insight into my first session of the day warts and all!

Next time I'll film more, couldn't be arsed messing around with it to be honest as I was enjoying skidding too much!

A quality video just completed by Dave Murray of one of the Crail 'big track' drift days.
My Saph may be the only Ford, but there's a good bit of terrorising Nissan owners in there (especially at the very end!).

Not updated this in a while.... but anyways, added some sponsor's stickers.... so here's some pix of the Saph from today....

Reppin' Fast Ford magazine as ever, this time much bigger though!


Now have Fountain Trailers on board. They've got an interesting development which I'm sure would be of interest to a lot of drifters.... an ultra low loading trailer! Fingers crossed mine is with me in time for Round 1 of the BDC.


Graphics courtesy of DMB


(do you think I need a new rear bumper?!)

Nearly ready to compete in the British Drift Championship's first round in a few week's time!
