As titled,say you won the big one on the lottery and wanted a track toy what ford would you buy/build?????

ive thot of this quite a few times,i dare say we all hav but what would you want? for me it would have to be a 400-500 bhp escort cossie.
that or a mental powered rs500 but i know i would probably die then

so people,what would it be???

 

Probably something very similar to AG's focus. That or a big power Escort, similar to Martin Hadlands i guess.

 

A properly built 3dr sierra cosworth, caged, AP's, all the right reliable bits.

Aim for a reliable 400 bhp and then get as many track miles on it as possible. No point chasing horsepower if reliability goes to shit.

 

Andy's focus ultimate cosworth powered track car

 

im swaying towards 3 doors now. White with gold comps like a guy i know lol.

500hp

 

i would try to buy paul baileys mk2 rs2000,or if he wouldnt sell get ag to build me a car like his....

 

wouldnt say no to the 3 door myself but i know what im like and i would end up bending it.for real angry driving on track i would need the 4 wheel drive

 

hard one.. a Roushe Mustang Gt500..

 

RS200.

 

cossie powered 4wd S1 on 11" x 18" rl7s

 

this would be the mustang for me,eleanor from gone in sixty seconds



stunning car


hmmmmmmm

 

I would get M Sport to build me something insane for the track. Either with a new WRC Focus or by an old WRC escort and give it to them

there was one on Autotrader a few months back for.. Ł125,000 ! but my god it is THE most beautifull car i have ever seen / sat in

 

Im afraid it wouldnt be a ford anything. Probably get a GT3 RS and an atom/crossbow, caterham kind of thing.

If it had to be a ford i'd probably get either Martin H to build me a rep of his escort or Andy G to build me a replica of his Focus.

 

If i won the lottery, id use my fez to upset you big boys!

 

Im happy with my 500bhp, rs500 ,

 

Reyland Escort no doubt about it.

Mike

 

Modified Ford GT, im sure there is more to get out of that car !!!

but only if i could get it in right hand drive.

 

hmmm,4wd cossied mk2 xr2... nice thot that.. time to put on some lines me thinks

 

Silly spec RS200 would be my ideal money no object Ford track toy.

 

lucky c**t

 

Mk1 or mk2 escort, space frame, yb, 4wd or maybe just run down to reyland and wave some cash at Martin for his escort.

 

money no object then it would be a original ford gt40 then go do historic car races around europes tracks like that program on dave (cant remember the name of it)

 

id have to say a tvr sagaris,,, not a ford but if money was no limit then why should my choice of cars be limited ?

infact id also like a F430 and a DBR9S,,,, even a GT2 for my mates to come join me

 

well if it was money no object i'd have the following..

Roushe mustang Gt500
Cosworth Capri
V8 mk3 Cortina
2010 camaro - red with black stripes

and you know, something a bit milder like a stage 2 escos just for the daily driver

 

rs200

 

The title of the thread is money no object which Ford track car!

Mike

 

I'd get an F car too, a shiny red one so everyone who saw me driving around thought i looked like a cunt, i'd also be driving around thinking how much of a cunt i look, beeping my horn at hot girls and driving everywhere in first and revving really high

 

money no object - maybe finish mine


but if i run out of money i guess a rs1700t

 

why does evry1 always want a ferrari????

 

you should have seen me on saturday driving the tuscan,,,,, was trying to pose with a arm out the window but the steering wheel is soo touchy round town,,,,, then the fucking reverse parking with half a turn each side so having to take 5 attempts, in a 3 car space and also not seeing where the bonnet ends too,,,,,, made me look like a right tool !!

though standing beside it i look like i can drive pmsl

 

Gotta love a nice pose. I bet you felt cool even though you were failing to park. hah

 

cause in reality we all wanted one as a child, either that or another super/hyper car

lets be REAL here,,, who the fuck whos got TOO much money would spend it on a fucking ford for track use,,,,,, there so good at super track cars that the front grid of all endurance racing is litterd with ford fiestas and focus's

its just like saying " when i become a footballer im gonna marry a girl who looks like heather of eastenders",,,,,, sure its easy to say WHEN THERES NO CHANCE ITS GONNA HAPPEN !!!!

reality you will be driving a konisegg to the track where your pit crew deliver the F430S in the F1 equipt artic aswell as the spare DB9R incase it fails

to me its like dreaming of one day owning a semi detatched home on the outskirts of london,,,,,,, reality its a country house with soo much land half of it you will never even stand on in your lifetime you would buy

 

You have to be specially trained in the art of ' pose parking' the training is done by any regular BMW driver - usually it involves swinging the front into a gap, taking up 4 bays dependant on the carpark and not giving a shit

oh... and you weren't allowed to indicate either.

 

its not failing to park.. theres no steering angle on the car so a 3 point turn takes 9 turns,,,, not like ive ever tryed it,,, but i took me 3 times turning to pull off my mates driveway and go left

 

a xr4i with a wild cossy donk in or stians old blue escort

 

I would see if I could find one of Malcolm Wilson's old michelin Pilot escort cossies. And ask him to rebuild it

 

you OBVIOUSLY either are making a joke or dont realise that im the WORST at indicating

it was my mate who told me that my indicators on my impreza dont work,,,,, turns out the ABS fuse is wired up somehow to the indicator stalk feed and i took out the fuse a week after i got back from the ring,,,,,, back in may i think we went and i was told 2 weeks ago when i loaned him my impreza

 

Rear wheel steer! for all those tricky manouvers

 

you know how much a rear tub is for a tuscan,, not to mention wheels and the cost of getting one resprayed,,, ill take 5 mins parking it instead thanks pmsl

Rear wheel steer aint the same in car that would cost 10k to repair if it went wrong
