Without sounding like king of the streets

My Escort was 201BHP with 219LBS of tourque and in a straight line from a rolling start off a roundabout killed my next door neighbors UK 2000 Turbo, Focus ST170 and Starlet Galanza Turbo.

However brothers got an STI and in standard trim stripped the Escort.

My Escort (when I've put it back together) will be 260-280 BHP and his STI will be 330 BHP so that should be interesting.

The engine going into my Escort is the 2.1 ZVH out of my Fiesta Sleeper. In that I took a BMW 323i (badged as an M3 but it was too easy to pass and he was trying), Seat Leon TD, MR2 Turbo, Civic Jordan, Integra type R and a Honda S2000, all in a straight line though, no twisties. If corners had been involved I think I wuld have been in trouble
