martog 149 Posted October 28, 2011 Me and a mate who was an active banger racer took a mk5 Cortina Estate (and it was in a state!) to a "them v us" meet at Speedworth? track near Ipswich around 2004/5/6??? On this day there were three intresting cars. Mk 4 Cortina 2.0S in Roman Bronze :thumbdown: Mk 4 Cortina saloon in red (can't remember which model). This was MINT!!! :thumbdown: Mk 1 Capri with a screaming crossflow!!! :) Maybe another 5 or 6 Mk5 Cortina's, then Capri's and the rest were various others, mainly Bluebirds. :D Needless to say, nothing left the track that day bigger than an ice cube!!! :o Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris-euro 0 Posted October 29, 2011 hope he didnt just join the club to see if we would part with our cortina`s for banger raceing cos hes come to the wrong place...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorKtina 17 Posted October 29, 2011 at least he's up front about it. What would worry me is the guys who come on anonymously and might be able to work out where we keep our cars. Mine sit in the garage locked up with the ignition cunningly dismantled and a chain round the wheel and a few other secret dodges... would delay a serious baddun all of thirty secs prob :-( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the-ford-cortina.com 226 Posted October 29, 2011 Been to a yard darn sarf today where he had 4 mk1 cortinas , 1500 super show car , 2 door GT for restoration and 2 mk1 stock cars . He was on with restoring a few other classics as well but when they are too far gone he takes them on the track. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
