It's in the September '04 issue of Performance Ford

We brought the car over last year for National Day for them to play on the circuit. I don't think they'll be back this year.

aaargh..... dont tell me that Mark!!! reckon theres any left available???? ???
Dave

Give prodrive a call. It was about 5 years ago I went there and had a good look around ,this was when they where doing the conversion work to the 22b's this should put a date when I was there, it was through Nodic supplies when they were around,
I would explain to them this and hope you get someone helpfull, They had 4 sets there I know I saw them and could have brought them also , But I didnt like the split spoke and white, By the way these were also 19inch and at the time I could only get 255 tyres this also put me off.

Ex. Carlos Sainz car that won in Indonesia in 97 i think.
He runs Acropolis suspension setup on it.
He is a rallydriver and know how to handle a car, and him going onto the gravel is just for show.
The thing that makes him able to go this fast is that he i so confident in his driving and NOT afraid to crash the car.

Very true Martin, such a shame but the expense and effort I imagine they have to undertake just to bring the cars over is far too much of a risk for some scum to take it away!
