I'll be there for the Classic Ford show in June, wont be in the  though I'll be on the Old School Ford stand in a mk1 Escort. 11th June, there'll be some quick car's there. Well worth going to, anyone can race as long as it's a Ford. There will be modern Ford's there as well.

As we are talkin bout racing...
Has anybody found that when trying to get a quick start that 2nd gear doesnt pick up in the
power band and there is abit of a flat spot around 3500revs! Does that make sense!?
Do you have to rev the nuts out of 1st or is my gear change worse than my nans!
I think its the latter and I need to practice (after a few more hundred miles) or maybe both!!
Any comments!?

Hmm, silver stripes are quite cool! Have to think bout it!
That performance blue ST could be on to something with the blue/white combo!! (wouldnt go mad with the tippex though) Are there any other white bits on it to even it out!?
Also, those rally style roof vents.....
Are they just stuck on? That must cause drag surley!!

Didn't notice the mesh, I know what your sayin it is abit over kill!
Different though, them white OZ alloys would look cool on the blue car to balance out the blue and white!
