  • The Aussie Ford Barra six is continually reaching new heights in performance. Nem’s FPV F6 street car recently became the first FG Falcon to run into the 7-second zone. The car still retains an IRS rear end and surprisingly many factory stock engine internal parts. We caught up with Michael from QuickBitz for an inside view on what it took to achieve this impressive milestone.

      Can U explain to me how a Bugatti can only do a 10.01 quarter mile and this does 7 something? It doesn't make sense to me. No million dollar cars do under 10 seconds. So how do you do it? Are you using alot of Nos? Amazing time? Is this as fast as the street outlaws cars?

    These Ford Barra engines are so impressive. I’m currently looking for an old 80’s Toyota Corolla shell to engine swap and turn into a drag car for a weekend hobby. I’m turning 34 and my partying days are well behind me, time for a hobby to keep me busy lol. The engine swaps I’m considering are the Barra, Rotary engine or 2JZ. My father use to drag race rotary engines. The amount of power they’d be able to put down with those tiny little engines was absolutely preposterous 😂
