Rover V8 powered Escort racing at the Leadfoot Festival

[rasersedge2004]

I had the huge pleasure of co-owning this car for a couple of years ('04/05?) and entered it in a few TCC events. Blindingly fast, aurally mindblowing, clunky old 4 spd muncie was all you needed with all the torque of the 4.4L P76 cradled engine. On a fun day at Taupo I actually managed to spin it twice on the same corner in the same lap! We were always placed though and in fact the first time out ran a second at the Rifle Range bent sprint. A great car!

Lovely noise, scary beast
