Your Mustang sounds sweet! What power output has it got? 0-60 etc?

What 'turbos' have you got Dan? I'm love my cars!

Yes I hear it's more exspensive to operate a vehicle over there.

Fuel is about $2.64 a gallon here....that helps alot. Sad thing is it I still think it should be a dollar a gallon.

I still pay on the new van, but the cars are all paid for.

As far as power goes....measured on a rear wheel horsepower dyno....it did 428hp
to the rear wheels or about 525 at the flywheel. It ran the 1/4 mile in 11.68 seconds.

She's wounded right now though....enough to warrant a rebuild. With only 14,500 miles on it. 🙁 I am trying to squirrel away some money to rebuild the engine. So it sits in the garage gathering dust for now.

What 'turbos' have you got Dan? I'm love my cars!

Last year I had....

Ford Escort RS 1.6+ Turbo '89 with 90 Spec kit on it.
Celica GT4 2.0 4WD Twin entry Turbo
MR2 GT T-Bar 2.0 Wacky Modified to **** Twin entry Turbo
Corolla T-Sport non-turbo but just as quick
Mitsubishi Spacewagon (the 7 seater workhourse I used for festivals and local deliveries
Aprilia RX 125
Road legal imported Quad-bike

Although now I'm banned so i've sold the celica, RS and the crosser. But i'm keeping the others I think as I'm off my ban in a few weeks.

Dan.....never heard of one of those cars.......lol.

I will see if I can find some pitures or videos from the race track and let you see the Mach in action.

Here you go....enjoy.

My fastest run to date.

Nice list Dan!

Always fancied an RS turbo. Thing is they are daft money nowadays.

I have only one car at the moment (the woe of setting up a business i guess!). Saab 900se turbo. It has a few mods, about 210 bhp at the moment. The thing I love most is that no sod knows what it is. Manufacturer figures say 0-60 in 6.9 so people look a little shocked when an old mans car leaves there BMW for dead while making alsorts of grunting and whooshing noises! lol

I get some funny looks though. I'm 26 and I drive a Saab!

PS You'll have to post some pics. Maybe there could be a thread about peoples cars?
