Default 1/4 mile times

I know its not as simple as just putting down a time to a car, but could somebody give me some rough (but still pretty accurate) times that the following cars (all in standard form) would do a 1/4 mile in.

Escort RST
Feista RST
Feista RS1800
Escort RS2000 4*4
Escort cossie
Escort 1.8 gti
Seirra 2wd
Seirra 4wd

Just a rough indication of the times they would get would be great (as i have next to no idea )

Thanks

thought a standard cossie wouldve been quicker than mid 14s 1/4, how much does a standard cossie weigh in at?

jonesy - suprised at your 1/4 mile time mate, would imagine it should be faster than my clio with the spec its running managed a 14.8s in my clio at york

I think something silly fat like 1600Kg for the lardy sapphire? rings a bell?? just about anything smaller beats a std cossie, they are over rated (and over weighted) as standard IMO
