Yeah Smit does get some cool times at the Pod
My car has done a 13.2 at santa pod, not with me driving as I cant launch for shit
Dave's escort was in the 11s at santa pod last year.

even the old cossie estates can go sideways if you get the right driver.........

most cossies you see running 14 and 15 sec 1/4s...
badly setup worn out rear suspension....check
shitty tyres......check
probably putting out less power than they rolled out of the factory with...check
driven by an idiot that thinks if he,s smoking up the rears its mega power
HTH

i think its more cossie owners dont need to prove things on the 1/4 miles, its like most of them cars go quickly in a straight line, but how do they handle in the corners? plus there small cars, hardly a challenge to make them quick!
with a cossie, u can put ya weeks shop in the boot, all ya mates, and still do some good times

I dont think anybody on here with a cossie thinks its unstopable,who ever thinks that is a idiot,you can make any car faster than another,you just need money,i could build a austin alleggro that would beat skylines or cossies if i wanted to

I do not think you are much of a ford fan as you know fuck all about them and now slagging them off as you have just found out about santa pod and persuaded your mum to drive you.
From the way you are coming across I guess you were still in your dads balls when the cossie was new.
Don't forget its getting late and a school day tomorrow.

GTST's are rwd and use the RB25DET (2.5 single turbo) and are probably the most even comparison for a saff.
GTR's use the RB26DETT (2.6 twin turbo) and are 4wd.
Not that the above matters, the cossie v liner/M3/scooby/evo/everything argument is older than the bible. Cossies can be excellent cars, so can alot of others. Just because some cars were putting in slow times today doesnt mean all of them will be.
Pointless baiting thread IMHO
