Default Fast ford latest issue

Well, it's time for me to once again reveal the contents of the latest issue...


Jeez that's probably the yellowest cover car ever!


Rather nice Saph Cos on FRS rims


The Fast Ford track day at Oulton Park


Very cool, and very clean RS Turbo


Stu guides us through the world of engine cooling - this month oil!


A textbook Focus ST


The fella who owns RS500 no.001 and a couple of other Cossies for good measure


Greek nuttiness with an 'interesting' power figure


Fast Ford @ Crail. Och aye the noo.


Take a look around the premises of one Mr.Gibbs


Track ready Fiesta ST


Ooh, and the covercar. Norwegian madness, and a very tasty 3-door


Huuuuuuuuuuuuuge guide all about dampers - There's way more to them than meets the eye.


How to fit some throttle bodies

There's a bunch of other stuff in there too from a SportKa buying guide to the latest staff car saga. It's on sale this Thursday, oh yes!!

i did say you were in the mag in my post on the subject

dan, the pics you put up, if someone were to request a pic would you be able to source a copy without the fold in it or would that be asking too much?

not got any particular one in mind as yet, just asking

Have to ask, Fast Ford did a Feature of a Sprint Track Day me and a few lads did back in June iirc Neil and a Photographer came along and had a great day.

Why has is not been featured?

Were there not enough Fords their? Turbo's? Cosworth's?

I've asked Neil and he stated back in August that the gaffa had decided to hold it back, does that mean this year? next year? never?

Or have I totaly missed the issue it was in?

Do not take this as me looking for a ruck or reply to me sarcastically.

An honest answer would be appreciated.

Many thanks, Kev.

Hi the completely honest answer is that there simply weren't enough Fords to justify a feature. The pics we have simply wouldn't have made for an interesting feature. I had it on hold to put in if a small gap appeared, but non did and it's gone unused. Really sorry if that's a dissapointment but occasionally weather and car turnout simply get in the way of what would be an otherwise fun feature.

Your honesty is much apreciated


The pictures that were take, would you have them still?

If so would it be possible to have copies of them, as the photographer knew his shit and tuck some wicked looking shots.

I can't see that being a problem mate. Drop me an email to remind me and I'll burn a copy off. The photographer got paid for the shoot, so he won't mind if I pass them on.

That would be wicked, nice one, could you send me your email address as I don't have 100% Internet access at work to gain access to forums but I will be able to email you tomorrow day time if I have your address.
