I was thinking the same.
Mike Rainbird has been in the ford scene for a long while. Did people on here used to call him Phil Colins????

I bet that was a mint experience matey. I love hearing stories of older cars up against super cars.

Brings back memories I bought that mag as a teenager. Very impressive top speed from mike for the power. The white escort in the feature owned by a woman is the car mike replaced his sapphire with. A few of the cars still exist.

That's the one Mike1! Good to see a cossie come put on top, was hell of a speed for a more or less stage 3 spec engine.
