Default BWARND video
Here's a video of the twin turbo Cortina BWARND plus PRO-70 and MR MAD from the Winternationals. I figured a few people might want to watch BWARND do it first 200mph pass down the track.

It seems like only yesterday that Victor Bray was just cracking 200mph in the Chev, now we have pseudo Streetcars doing it.

Enjoy.

It's not a find, I filmed it. _2:

Yeah as far as I know Rob's Cortina is the quickest turbo Ford in the land.

Torry driver = Big Balls.

Genuine muscle there. The antilag on the tori sounds cool.

I think the point was that it is the fastest turbo FORD

You're not wrong, I reckon the guy will crash it soon enough, he doesn't seem to know when to back off although on that last pass he did wash off alot of speed when it took out the reflector.
