Default fast ford this month

Has my car on the cover!!!!!!!!!!

So no natter what else they've put in from btcc to national day to a massive turbo explanation, it all pales when you look st the cover story, and especially the double page 70/71 pic

To say I'm happy would be like saying its a little chilly at the north pole

He still owes me a lap of Silverstone in it

The rest of the excellence, while worthy of a mention, is of course but a mere after thought as far as this poster is concerned

No,I spose not, just that bearing in mind who's car it used to be and the vision he had for it,the end result is so different its gonna create debate

Also cant help thinking every show he takes it to some people are going to say it used to be 'Beefs car' etc etc

Maybe that's another reason why it's so different to grey edition ?

As I've already said it does look smart I can't deny that

It's not like Beefy finished it and Mark took credit though. It was part built, and Mark bought the shell, altered it, and finished it off to his specification. With all due respect to Beefy, it's not like it's his car.

Agree with chucking money at them. Its our hobby at the end of the day. Some people spend a fortune every weekend getting piss. Thats what they do. We spend a fortune on our Fords.

It's something that needed to be said though Dan to encourage all owners to send pics or info for features

Some people have probably spent more money modding a car than someone actually did buying a ST or RS
