hey everybody,
i was a paid upmember of the old forum for a bit a few years back, but cudnt get used to its layout if im honest so 'surfed' off and am now known to frequent manchesterclassicford (despite being a scouser ), CP, OSF amongst others, i was reminded of this place tho by rich's clever marketing campaign on CP
onto my capper, ''the red dragon'' as my mates call it 38carb, fr30cam kit, bestek ign kit, kenlow fan, ashley manifold, cutom ss exhaust and a few other bits and bobs, rollin rd showed it to have 155 lb/ft and 117hp, which makes me happy , it flies , except in the wet round silverstone where it was slidding everywhere, even in a straight ine in 3rd gear , need to sort back end and fit my polybushes, single leafs etc, ive had for 12months now . recent pics from ford fair last weekend (got vids aswell but looks stupidly slow thro the complex, as does my mates injector = very slippy) and rolling rd last month-ish

Re: red 2.0 laser
Nice looking car mate. I think I saw it at Ford Fair when I was wandering around.
Need some fatter tyres and an axle location kit to help with the back end sliding about.
