Doesn't surprise me. Someone I follow on socials bought the pink ex-Max Power Escort from him. It was a bit of a mess, and he'd lied endlessly about the spec/condition of it. Makes me wonder what kind of shape the cars he gives away are in.

His Instagram feed is just full of competition stuff, so maybe he is focusing on giveaway cars. Always struggled with him a bit to be honest. Another of the ones who drives like an absolute weapon on camera.

Love the SCCON sticker. That is one deeply '80s club logo!

It's been a good while since I've been there to be honest, but it does seem to have plenty of in-field etc. to work with. That said, most of the UK circuits now host stage rallies, so you'd think they could use a similar layout to the stages they use there. Guess it comes down to cost though...

I really like the idea of those rally track days. It's a shame more circuits don't offer them.

This is the thing I have noticed. For some reason, when I've painted stuff with a gun and compressor, it has been wayyyyyy more durable than stuff done with rattle cans.

About $13k all-in. That's with upgraded pistons and rods etc.

Minor update; he showed me the quote for his new 454ci engine :ROFLMAO:

Not sure if this is the right thread but f**k it. A colleague took me out in this yesterday, as he is super proud of what he's done to it. It's had a 6.2-litre engine swap (I think it was 5.3 as standard), then he's added a different cam, long tube manifolds and a different inlet manifold. He's...

Looks nice that. I'd still like a relatively standard 172 Cup as a weekend toy. So many good memories of my old one.

I struggle a bit with Ben Collins' stuff. He's obviously a handy driver, and isn't terrible on camera, but he knows so little about cars it's almost painful. I watched one of his videos the other day where he was talking about hydraulic handbrakes and said they were different because they work...

Love it. I think the one I drove was around 160bhp, but still felt spritely. I knew a few people that jumped from modified RS Turbos to Cossies and were disappointed until they started modifying them. I got a ride in Christian Major's S2 RS Turbo once, during the era when they were going for...

The first hot hatch I ever drove was a Fiesta RS Turbo. It had been chipped and had a couple of other bits and felt like a rocket at the time, as well as sounding really good. They get a bit of stick for not handling well, but I think they're still super desirable. A proper little tearaway of a car.

I'm amazed the track operators haven't told him to do one to be honest. He seems like a total liability.

Hit and miss as in sometimes he actually misses the barriers? :ROFLMAO: Absolutely no way I would let him drive my car.
