I guess the Corty isn't that quick in a straight line after all!

[:x)][:u][88]


I havent watched the video yet,but it sounds like it is of the post blown thermostat gasket situation.When the car would not perform due to the lack of coolant!!![;^)]I am pretty certain that was the only time you managed to pass me!!![;^)]

That footage only shows the lap where I pulled over to the right through turn 8 to let you past because of the ignition cut that was kicking in all the way up to turn 8 and under the bridge to corporate hill[:0][:p].Have you got any footage close enough to see for the first couple of laps before the coolant departed the engine via the blown thermostat gasket and the engine temp went through the roof[?][:0][:p]I dont know if you would have been able to get close enough[;^)].Luckily the engine was still in one piece after that little episode[B)][:u][:p].From the short amount of time on the track together,I cant wait to have a battle at a timed event[:p],it should be very interestingHave you got the footage for the whole session[?]

It was a good day,although I only did about 5 laps of 1 session.The Corty and the MR2 are pretty close in reality(the video footage in this thread doesnt show a full power run[:p]),we will hopefully have another run together soon,probably with Kev as well,so that should be a great day!!!I've never seen so much body roll in pictures of the corty that have been taken previously[:0],I think a bigger swaybar is finally in order[}:)].

Hi Phil,
Car looks great![:p] I'm new to the forum and noticed you needed some pics. Well, was going through the million i have at home and found these couple of your car.[:0] They were taken at a Small Ford Day in Sydney. May bring back some memories? Cheers...
Mick.

Phil,
what is the 4rd word on the sticker on the back window of your car? i think it says 'bred in britain, ****** downunder'
i'd never noticed it until i saw the artical in that magazine (which was great by the way) but you couldn't read it..
thanks
