CortinaTrap

mk3/ 4 / 5's for bangering

Recommended Posts

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

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 :-(

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.
