Haven't updated this thread for a while....so here it is I upgraded the cooling fan to a Spal 16in fan which is larger diameter, lower profile and higher flowing fan compared to my old fan. The old fan was 1000 CFM and the new fan is 1600 CFM but also sucking air through almost the whole radiator core surface as it is bigger in diameter. Fan operating time has reduced a lot and temps never go any higher than the fan cut in temp set at 93deg C. Pic of the new fan  Also installed a Mocal engine oil cooler, Mocal hi flow adapter plate with a built in thermostat. I drilled and tapped the adapter to take an oil temp sender. Plumbed up with some 5/8 Speedflow pushlock fittings and Hose. Pic of the cooler setup  Back in feb I took the car up to the Small Ford Show 2013. It was good to cruise up to Birdwood with a few mates driving their small fords. The show itself was very good, the RS didnt win anything but I won a carton of Paleys in a raffle  couple pics from the show

Last Saturday I entered the RS into 'Nitro Outlaws' Competition/Street drag meeting at Adelaide International Raceway. As the RS hasnt seen any drag racing action... cough cough on the track , I was very keen to see what it would run down the 1/4 mile as is. I had some serious axle tramping issues getting off the line, the tramping was so bad that on two launches it jumped out of gear. I managed to run 12 second passes with a best ET of 12.3s @ 113mph. With tramping issues sorted so I can launch the car properly, it would get into 11s easily. Very happy with the 1/4 mile times as is! Overall it was an awesome day out with family and friends, good weather and continuous drag racing from 9am to 10 pm. I did mange to smash the front uni joint at the track, i guess well prepped track and violent tramping will do that, but I will try some Hardy Spicer joints this time. A pic at the track racing a LJ Torana  Pic of the front uj  Here is some in car footage of one of the runs going up against VE HSV Clubsport R8 Click on the pic below to watch the video
