I keep asking on a thread and get NO response, i have also posted on the RSOC and again NO response
Since the show organiser left things have gone down hill very fast, such a shame as well

Its nice to get a good average
I didn't know that you have had the car on 2 different rollers, Dyno WHORE
lets organise a day at pod where a load of fords can meet up and see what times they can get
1/4 mile times wont tell you anything about Power just grip off the line & weight. The ET will give a better indication of Power. The good old fashioned Daddy Thrash at Brunters is the best bet. You can have a standing mile race against your rival & record all the times to get there. The guy with the fastest speed will have the most Power with no bullshit attached. Get 1-PD to organise it. Would love to see if we can add to the 15 Cossies past 180mph you need a genuine 490bhp to do that but past years proved very very few could muster that.
Ive retired from such events but would love to watch or help to organise.

Would mine do 180 with a 7400 rev limit and 215/40/17 tyres ? (standard T5 and 2wd diff)

thats the whole point in my post
we all know what power it has
but whats the point in building such a spec for it to sit in the car park at shows where there is a drag strip or a track even
just getting a bit long in the tooth now all the rr threads

Power dependant of course
Steve
Mine needed 7600 at 185.5mph with 235/40/17 tyres and a fairly high fifth gear at 0.7985:1, so I guess it may touch 180 but as I've said before I think your limiting factor will be runway length not rpm
