'everybody says there shite'

what are you going on about?


Be honest.... have you actually read this thread at all?


I don't think you have, have you!


I see loads of praise for the RS2000 on this thread from LOTS of different people.

You have just made yourself look a total bellend....

nice rant about the '2nd fastest Escort ever made' feel better now?

TRY READING THE THREAD.

Don't think anybody has said 2ks are shite Craig, just that 306 is better which even Kev has said they're great.

The most surprising car I have come across in years at a trackday.

GENUINELY FAST

AWESOME CAR, AWESOME DRIVER.

Sorry Craig, that post will get you seriously owned

I can't even remember how many cars Lee owns, but I'm sure he could fill you in. Put it this way, one of his old steeds was the Reyland 3dr!

Weight in its selft plays a massive part to acceleration, If you line up two identical cars apart from ones a couple of hundred kilos lighter, the lighter car will out accelerate the heavier car till such a time where drag plays a part. At this time the difference in weight has only a small effect on acceleration.

The tussle in question was down a 25 mile stretch on the M6, at first the bird in the FRS didnt wanna play and just ignored us till she undertook us and pulled in front of us. When traffic cleared she booted it and took off like a bat out of hell, we also took off and due to the superior acceleration we were up her chuff in an instant at which point she pulled over and the drag race continued, she backed off somewhere about 120, we backed off at 130.

Just because you have a pre conception that somethings not possible, doesnt make it so. The car in question has claimed bigger scalps than an FRS and frequently supprises drivers of much more expensive equipment, only a fool makes assumptions.

this thread does make me smile ,I will concede the pug is a good car but it comes down to where your heart is ,Im a ford blinkered man bang to rights so I personally would never want to own one as they do not interest me ,but others see it differently so fair play ,did not realise so many pug owners use passionFORD

oh dear.

Your bellend status just reached new level.


I BET this is your last ever post on passionford!!!!

coz you wont EVER come back from that last post mate....


Yes. I am 12. I can't drive.... how did you find out????


THIS IS EPIC.

1. go on a forum...
2. dont read the thread
3. Gob on and rant and just be completely wrong
4. call a member that most people know pretty well 12 years old
5 accuse him of not being able to drive and that his signature is a photoshop (which it isnt! thats me and my red fiat in the pic!)
6 go back and hide on RS2000-16v.com where I imagine you saw a link to this thread?

am I wrong???

P.S.... do you know this car?



I had that built and owned it for 10 years.... and drove it ALOT.... just about to overtake this quite well know Escort actually?


not bad for a 12 year old huh


EPIC FAIL MATE

I could really own your ass.... but it would look like showing off

P.S you STILL need to show me where the RS2000 has been slagged off by everybody on this thread ??? come on.... SHOW ME!!!!

I can post you lots and lots of praise for them on this post.... but its pointless as you don't seem to be able to read.

You do chat some shite!

I can see a couple of people dismissing the 306 as shite, a couple of people dismissing the RS as shite, but the vast majority of people trying to give the OP a reasoned opinion and answer his question.

He hasn't said he doesn't believe you can't beat the Focus though.

I think it would be close. Maybe the Escort may have slight edge because its lighter.

Like me its the whole "Focus was destroyed" comment thats the issue. Being faster than something and destroying it are two different things

I am NOT a fool.

and I am NOT getting confused at all!!!!!!

pls quote a post where I am?

you CAN'T!

The drag thing was a joke... taking the piss out of Goldfinger.

Bigger scalps? Were they also NOT trying or being driven by a clueless bird in the wrong gear


just to reiterate.

I AM NOT SLAGGING THE CAR.

I AM NOT SAYING IT IS NOT FAST

I AM NOT SAYING IT CANT PULL AWAY SLIGHTLY FROM A FOCUS RS AT MOTORWAY SPEEDS.

but it cant 'obliterate' one.... not even close.

No fuck

Wish I could be arsed to log on and join to your RS2000 site as I bet the thread on there is VERY interesting!!!!!

Number 1

Research your intended target - only a small search would reveal a small amount about Lee and his cars and give a small indication to the person he is.

I will give you this though working out his age would prove difficult - that said its easy and fair to assume he aint 12.

Number 2

FAIL!!!

The prize for the biggest fail on PF ever goes to.......

...you!!

To save Porkie's blushes, some of his previous/current cars include an R34, Boxster, 911, 6 Series BM, huge power YB'd Westfield, and the Ferrari in his sig.

Stop being such a child, and boo hooing because not everyone agrees with your car choice. RS2000 owners nationwide are facepalming at your stupidity.

This thread is reminding me just how bloody awesome 306 GTI-6's are and how good my completely ropey one was.

I could put the Vectra Bus in the Garage and get a 306 for the winter again..

I've seen a 3 year old who can do better pictures - I wouldn't take GCSE Art as an option Lee - stick to maths and business, I have a feeling that you may be quite good at those in the future.

Marco's old car is still about on the RS2000 forum, though I think it may have lost the Bilsteins that it used to have back then. Still looks well though.

They can be made to handle very very well really. The turbo one mentioned above was a 2.3 on TBs previously and claimed some decent scalps on track by all accounts.

J4ffa.... you there mate?

Yeh but.... and there is a big but....

1 Marco CAN drive
2 Marco fitted stupidly large brakes
3 Marco fitted large wheels with big fuck off slicks
4 Marco fitted some seriously hard core and clever billies to it
5 Marco had the rear beam altered
6 I've lost count of times I've sat in his kitchen (till 3 in the morning) where he has told me.........

Shings.... it don't matter how fast it is if it can't stop and go round corners whats the point.

Mans a foookin legend.

306's are brill... a standard one kicked my arse in my 172 round donno and I had A038's on....
