Professional Waffler
ź mile in 14.75
Top speed 149.7mph
The times were recorded by Performance Ford during a grudge match last year. SHould be quicker now as the ICE install, interior and trim have all been removed and there are a couple more tweeks been added
Far from the fastest but not too shabby for a 1600cc Escort

My times are 12.78 1/4 @ 114 done at TOTB3.
At last years Brunters thrash I did a 9.52 0-100 so fairly respectable times. Will be quicker once its all back together again!

I recall Jamie Going doing a 151.9 down the 1.2 miles(Evlington) & 13.27
I believe he and Christian have similar top speeds @ Brunters do they not? 160odds?
Janno's car is impressive for 1/4 as well from memory low 13's?
There must be a heap of other faster cars.

My times are 14.74 @ 104 mph on the quarter and 143.9mph for a top speed run at Brunters grudge match against Oranoco above 
Got plenty more to come as that was with 250bhp and I am currently having a 2.1 zetec that's going to run around 400 bhp @ 1.7 bar by Field motorsport so roll on next year when it gets put back together
