MINI event and a bonus..

[Mike RT4]

Very true.
Tell him what is the reputation of Fords in switzerland, austria and greece ...:blalalala:

That they are faster than BMWs ? Most of the (intelligent) Greeks / Swiss / Austrian's LOVE Cossies . You only have to see the cars on You Tube to see that - but we all know you like to live your life with blinkers on :blalalala:.

Hahahaha

Why are you getting a csl then ? Maybe get a focus

Keep up - I already have the CSL (owned for over a month), along with several other cars (including the shonky old Cossie) - which shows I know what cars are good and am not blinkered into believing that one make is better than anything else :blalalala:.

You need to stop living in that bubble of yours - there is life beyond BMW .

Sorry missed that.
Did you get 400bhp or its happening next month ?

I don't think you know me enough to tell me that I live in a BMW bubble.
I also don't know what you constantly try to prove ?
Well done if you have a lot of cars and especially fast ones.

Jeremy Clarkson once said: M3 owners have no friends.. Well i have to admit that he was right..!! I have a great video from a Barthurst race which shows the humble Μ3 Ε30 N/A DTM keeping behind the far superior for the season Ford Sierra Coworth turbo.. Well.......:bigcry:

It's currently standard bar H&R's, Supersprint and APs. I've just bought a second set of wheels for it to fit Cups and then once the new engine has done some miles (where I will also dyno it to see what it actually has power wise), I will take it on track and see what all the fuss is about. At the moment, my initial impressions are that it is painfully slow (despite being able to hold it's own against an RS5) - the gearing is too tall in my opinion - but it has a noise to die for and it feels more special than the E90 V8 (probably due to the seats and feeling like you're driving a "race-car" as opposed to a family saloon) and the brakes have the typical BMW over-servoed feeling (and are nowhere near as good as the ones on the Escort ). The standard rear beam isn't particularly good (hard cornering makes the rear end feel loose), so it needs the Turner Motorsport rear bush limiter kit fitting (which came with the car, just not yet fitted).

I'm not trying to prove anything, I'm just responding to your constant inane attacks on my choice of track car (I suspect you just wish you were man enough to own one ). You seem to be under the misapprehension that because I like Cossies, I should only like Fords and not any other marque. I was just showing that I have a diverse love of cars which ranges from BMW to Subaru and isn't isolated to one marque (which you seem to feel is obligatory). I'd love to take you out on track in the Escort, just so you STFU about it :blalalala:.

Funny how they changed the rules to exclude the RS500 from being able to race, as in 1989 nearly every car on the grid was a Ford (despite it not being a one make series), because to compete, that was what you needed .

It's called friendly banter - where your comments "attempt" to belittle :birdman:.

Some would say you're scared that you might be "turned" :gayfight: .
