Fast Ford day @ Crail, 28/9. Non Fords as well, (56k warning)

[Djw John]

Myself, Djw Dave and his gf went up to Crail for the first time in 2 years or so on Sunday and got a great day for it, the sun shone almost the whole day. Took loads of photos and this is about half or so of them!

All comments are very welcome!

I'll start with the Fords

Renaults

Other makes

Cheers
John

Size of the front mount on that nova!!!

Few of those cars are from Aberdeen.

 

[Djw John]

Aye, function over form! Was seriously struggling to get its power down but apparently the fastest in its class in Scotland and has been down to TOTB as well.

Gotta say I was loving the Cossies, especially the first Escort I posted

 

[Ian_182]

I love the old fords

 

[R20 CWH]

that P reg red escort mk2 was up for sale on pheads lately in sure 190bhp pinto chat iirc.

love the mustang.

nova looks daft!

 

[Big Iain]

Red Mk2 is stunning!

 

[Djw John]

Aye Iain it was, probably too low to drive well on back roads though!

Aye the nova may look daft but it seems effective!

 

[R20 CWH]

Red Mk2 is stunning!

[Big Iain]

[VeinAST]

Karmann Ghia is a beaut

 

[Fletcher]

Some nice cars there.

 

[Ian_182]

That mustang looks good

 

[Djw John]

Karmann Ghia is a beaut

It is in the pics, tbh it was pretty rusty and not nearly as impressive within 6 feet of it

Ah the mustang was ace!

 

[Beef-Mc]

Nice Cossie

 

[cat171]

Some nice stuff there, that mini van looks pristine

The black thre door cossie looks to be not in the best condition:dapprove: it needs a bit of work imo.

Escort cossies though :approve:

 

[oz_clio]

Aye it wasn't , however it was getting used Down the strip at that!

andy gallachers focus is seriously quick ive heard!? how did it do on the strip?

Aye, properly quick, 10.57 iirc, just uploading a vid for you now, but you'll have to excuse the s**t chat on it!

 

[Djw John]

This wasnt his fastest time but what a noise!!

 

[Djw John]

 

[Djw Dave]

680Bhp i heard the guy say. Quickest car of the day though! Proper wepon!

Edit: Andys focus. Not the orange beast.

 

[Ian_182]

Thats some good power

 

[The_Pirate]

That Mustang must be worth a fortune!

 

[Big Iain]

Gotta love womans questions lol, in The foci Video:

"whys it got that big spoiler on it"

 

[Djw John]

lol aye, thats Daves gf, she thought it looked daft, she now knows that its needed!!

Also its been pointed out to me thats Charlie Shaws focus, not Andy Gallagher

 

[Phill1978]

Gotta love womans questions lol, in The foci Video:

"whys it got that big spoiler on it"

she was right, it doesnt need the spoiler and it makes it look crap. motorsport bits on a road car FTL.
its not needed unless he`s jumping 15ft over a crest in some woodland area at 110mph

all i can see he is doing is looking like a small man in an overly boosted car to show off (like most ford car club members)

looks ok though

 

[Djw John]

It does need it, usually runs at Knockhill and as you can see its well over 500bhp, which is more than the WRC cars use. I reckon he's well justified in it!

 

[Ian_182]

Great car

 

[Haybails1980]

Awesome pics - looks like a good day! Wish I'd gone!

 

[Djw John]

Lesson learned Martin- if its sunny go! And take a jacket anyway!!

 

[cat171]

To be fair, that rear spolier on the focus does look sh*t.

 

[Djw John]

It would if it ever set tyre on the road but I like its purposefulness!

 

[cat171]

Anyone seen the silver power engineering wrc rep ? That has one on it. It's quite a powerful car, but nothing like the real deal.

 

[Djw John]

Na, cant say I have, get some pics up Craig lad

 

[cat171]

Brapp Brapp !!

It's on PH - 60k spent on it !
