One of the reasons I don’t post that much..lol Most of the regulars however are genuine and interesting to talk to.

As for the tide turning, I’m not sure about that but the turbo Falcons have earn’t the respect of many a Aussie car enthusiast, including me and I can’t see that changing in a hurry regardless of what the VE will bring. While Ford/FPV has their partner Prodrive, turbo engineering will become the blue performance brands biggest asset. A class leading Turbo Falcon, Territory and now Focus. What’s next?

What got my respect was the BA XR8.

Before my uncle got his BA XR8 in 2004 I didnt care much for Fords but that night when he took me for a blast around in it, hold sh*t it was awesome lol.

The fury of the BOSS 260 sent shivers up my spine, I've tried to con him into letting me drive it but he wont let me lol.
