fast ford june 2005

Just to end this silly childish game ;) - MY current 0.0046 3valve puts out

did you go to fiesta in the park the other week? i saw lots of little ka's, some of them even kermit coloured, but not you

No, I didn't go. If I went there might have been trouble. I felt too inclined to superglue fliers to windscreen, that sort of thing.

expanding foam surely :)

but if he were to put a bigger engine in, he's have a greater wieght penalty to deal with and on top of that you'd have to have more fuel to feed this bigger engine so..........

I think you and I need to talk about ideas at one of the summer shows... if I can battle through your adoring crowd of fans of course! :P

Well when you can sit quite comfortably upon it (even a fat gobshite like me), and get 0-60 in a shade over 3.5 seconds, be sure to let us know, mmkay. :-P

When 3rd party insurance on yours is £8 a year, and a new engine is under a tonne, you come back here too ;)

I pay £210 TPFT, with one years NCB.

What's the top speed - how many miles do you do on it on average, and how many miles between new engines does it tend to do?

I can pick up a decent secondhand lump for mine, for £350, should it ever need one. ;-)

That, and I'm sitting far enough off the ground (normally!) to not be crushed by the passing trucks etc. ;-)

Dan, what's the range of it? You should bring it to York Dragway. Pit it up against Kermit! :)

Hey, this argument started purely on your 'smallest engine biggest power' claim, i'm not saying mines a good, practical transport choice, but then, at least its a car (well, it has 4 wheels), so its more on topic for the group :-D

And if there is any crushing to be done, its my truck that does it ;-)

Did you notice that we were crossposting to like, 3 other groups? Cos i just did now, but none of them are bike groups, so my retort stands!

Plenty of range ;) Have to upgrade to the 3 speed box and bigger clutch bell if thats goin down :-D I'd imagine you'd win over a 1/4, but i'd get away better, and probly lead till the half way mark at least :)

At the moment he wouldn't - we've finally managed out first fault with the donk.

You mean your Superchip has broken it ?

:)

Too much power?

I'm not sure what it is, it looks like the TMAP sensor...

TMAP?

i shall part them with one wave of my hand :) ford fair tickets (if you want them) are currently standing at the £9 mark so if anyone wants some, send me some cash and i'll get them to you

Temperature, Manifold Atmospheric Pressure, I think...

I think I'm up for that. Track Time too, can you get the Sierra out of my way too? :)
