Dingy, well done on beating the Boxster! Can't believe you managed it! 
By the way, your car is almost quicker 0-100 than the tuned 600bhp+ 996 GT2 in this months purely Porsche magazine!

marco, the handling on that escort is something else pal, we was on road tyres (proxes) too!! was a mare on first session as track was wet and cold but after it'd dried out properly and sun came out a bit we just got faster and faster, not many rwd cars you can use 2 bar boost round a corner in now is there 
(yours excepted there lol)

Porkie i was stuck in 4th mate...... he hammered me until i came on boost LOL....
The 0-100 times will be low 8's with a gearbox that works
Would take me about 20 secs at the mo to make 60 LOL....and a new clutch.

(yours excepted there lol)to be honest a sierra isn't as nibble as a Mk2 escort , i know i have had them both ,
saying that you need to spend alot more on a sierra to make it handle and it's still not as good as a mk2 or Mk1 with all the right bits on it
with my car i drive it flat out whatever the boost is ...it's pedal to the metal not matter what the condtions .......thats why i always come off track .....the cossie feels slow to me i don't get a buzz from it any more mate to be honest
snails "r" us
