Anyone have a video of a fast Sierra Cosworth? What is the best time on 1/4 mile on a YB engine?

probably mad rod's cossie; but i have no idea if there are any video;s

although Mad rod's only does top speed runs; so not sure if he's the quickest or not

What times have Cossies on 1/4 mile?
How fast is e.g. a 400 hp Sierra on a 1/4 mile?

400 hp would be low 12's, maybe high 11's with the right set up and launch.

i cant see rods being 'very' fast to 1/4 mile cos of the 200 mph gearing.

a close ratio box would be quicker, surley.

Well well, I have to give it a try this summer here in Iceland, lot of cold air and O2, RS500 intercooler and 75 hp nitrous may help..?
I just have to kick my Audi TT 225 (now 280-300 hp), it did 13,305@105

Rod-Tarry

Not so Lee is quicker 11.4 @131 mines 11.5 @ 138 . This for road going RWD Sierras in the UK lots faster drag orientated cars remember mines geared for 220mph not 160.
This is Lees game mines only done that one quarter with massive Power should run 10's but will not be trying to prove it.

That's only because they're scared of your dodgy brake problem thinking you won't stop!!

Okay guys, I want to hear from you if 111 mph trapspeed on a 1/4 mile track is okay for a 380 hp chip from MSD. Does it seem to be delivering this power according to this speed?
