Tell you what...
I'm going to make a (small) challenge. £100 reward for the first person who can get a 2.5di in a standard size (i.e. no chopping/channelling) roadgoing shell down the measured 1/4 miles in under 18s at North Weald or 17.5s elsewhere.
A few conditions though...
Only standard ford 2.5di engine parts may be used (i.e. anything which was factory fitted by Ford to any 2.5di transit. Standard parts can be modified/tweaked adjusted. (I.e. factory turbos, injection pumps and non marine injectors).
Transit axles must be used
Road legal tyres must be used.
Van must be roadworthy and driven to the event.
Passeenger seat(s) must be fitted
The time must be recorded at an official forum event with at least 4 witnesses
I think its doable, but will definately be a challenge
