Dont know many details, but my car is appearing in a Continental Performance Mag duing a feature on Fords. They cannot trace a FRST with big Power as yet & asked if i could help. Not Cossie Powered or i would have contacted Fiesta Cossie.

That was Paul Johnson in his monster 2.1 ZT FRST

Got a mate with a similar 2.1ZT FRST can ask whether he's up for it. He does use the board but not seen him on here for a while

Paul Johnson?

Sunny (don't even know whether his new car is ready yet though?)

There's another guy with a lovely Ian Howell ZT engine pushing out over 300bhp as well - CarismaDave on fiestaturbo.com

Mine was pushing out around 230bhp but it's now in bits in my garage being sold off in kit form!

THIS IS NOT AN ADVERT!

Ah!! Just seen his name.
Paul Johnston i remember his name now, any car that can out-run Sunnys old record sounds like the real deal, maybe i have my man.

Cheers Rod

There's another nice one not mentioned as well - it's just about to be taxed and MOT'd as well (the owner has been out of the country for a while).

Lovely motor

I don't think the damage was terminal - ended the track time though!

I'm pretty sure it will be back - but probably after Sunny's had a reply

Get you Rod you old honey dripper!

In addition to Paul's times posted by Rad, didn't it run an 11.8 1/4 @ TOTB? Or was this not allowed as so many people were sceptical about it?
