Lovely mk3 escort...Friend of mine used to race in the Thunder Saloon in the 90s and he said Craner curves were taken flat in his Mk2 escort which he said felt so wrong going that fast down hill, He had a mass all steel xflow...Good Times
Looking forward to this.1/2 way through(pre track action) Reminds me a lot of special saloons/thunder saloons from back in the day- albeit those races had a full variety of different makes racing.
Great content. This is all so interesting to me. I love classic fords especially thundersaloons so this is spot on. Good to hear another Brit watchs Cleetus too. It's amazing what American's are doing with their youtube channels. I think if you keep putting these videos out consistently you'll have some real success. I'm not telling you what to do but I'd try and collab with some other UK youtubers: Aaron Unknown or Monky London would be a good shout. Dan.
Looks like you had a fantastic day Mike! Would love to visit one in the future as it looks like a great day out with some beautifully crafted machines 🤙
Great vid Mike, the Golf features for a split second at 32:19 😂 will try and make Mallory if Mark can get the Puma sorted. Looks like it overheated and warped the head sadly
Glad you made it back, takes the piss that a garage/service station doesn't sell oil, and probably nothing else car related, to keep you motoring..sells coffee though 🙄
Great video Mike some Lovely cars to watch at donnington excellent footage cheers . Also if I can say ,Pushing your car down the road not to piss your neighbours off ,what a true gent you are !!
Stumbled across your channel, absolutely brilliant loved watching this you definitely need to get to more tracks with a go pro in the track car again 🚙👍🇬🇧
@@mikefpe it did a grand job, my pal at work has a mk2 fiesta with a forged st170 turbo lump in it it’s mental, I’m watching your build from scratch , awesome 🚀👍🇬🇧
Well if the escort with 280bhp and yours with the same should be an alarm bell to scrap the turbos, go full screamer 50mm itbs. Far simpler,fits better and sounds amazing.
lol I dont have a spare 8 grand to throw at an N/A engine build..... no alarm bell just need more springs in the wastegate and more cooling to the charge cooler rad. then we can turn it up... only at 18 psi and the engine took 2.4 bar before i had it. watch this space.
yer us english guys look a little mental when we start getting over enthusiastic. gets the views tho... wont see me screaming and jumping about any time soon lol
Pmsl 🤣 now I’m a dad I truly appreciate the need for a good night sleep and wouldn’t want to be woken up by some wannabe UA-camr lad in his hopped up mk1 fiesta early in the morning lol
He does have a dyno print out for 280 when it was on the rollers, that said chris does say in the video that its probably more like 255 - 260bhp. Plus its all about the click bait lol
I thought this was a video of oldschool fords racing. As muchbas i love my oldschool fords this gets a dislike as it is a bit of video in one specific car cut to one specific corner and so it carries on. This was just another youtuber making a waste of time video
The silver Mk2 in front of yer man at 25:00 has the Cosworth 2.3 Duratec from a BAC Mono in it.
Some beautiful and well prepared cars. I love how the zetec sounds like a proper old school motor . Thanks for the video !
That escort is gorgeous. Proper bit of kit. That puma looked a bit like a mini tvr speed 12. The one before the cerbera based one.
Nice to see, 2 drivers there from the ovals,Tim Foxlow and North Deadly Daz.
Great video thanks for sharing 👍
who dont love old fords epic

That RS200 was simply gorgeous! Even from the whole way across the pond in the US 🇺🇸
Lad I know who works for Matt Lewis was in the pink Focus ST wide arch. Thing fairly shifts👌🏻.
Some amazing cars in this line up just wow.
Good Day with Cool Cars ....its a lot of fun.... I must go to Donington ,but its far away from Bavaria.
That mk3 is a beast.... revs into next year. Glad that bonnet didn’t flip. Great vid 👌🏼
Great video pal some cracking cars....🏴👍🏁👍😄🏁

Next episode "Mike goes back to school... Raceschool" 😜
Wicked video mike. 👍. Love getting up early for car shows. Life is getting back to normal.
Exactly that. Love an early morning convoy to a show. Roll on the easing of the lockdowns and more car related days out with mates. 😀
@@mikefpe couldn’t agree more.
Wonderful. Such much on display and use. That RS200 😍
Yer that is one car I could stare at for a long time. Some real engineering has gone into it.
That rs 200 was amazeballs man and all the sierras and mk1/2 and 3 escorts just wicked man great vlog anyways bro keep em coming 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
thanks appreciate the feed back
Looking forward to this.1/2 way through(pre track action) Reminds me a lot of special saloons/thunder saloons from back in the day- albeit those races had a full variety of different makes racing.
Yer totally agree. Wish I could have a time machine to go back and watch the good old days racing.

Great vid Mike, the Golf features for a split second at 32:19 😂 will try and make Mallory if Mark can get the Puma sorted. Looks like it overheated and warped the head sadly
Brilliant video as always Mike it looked a cracking day out there was some absolute stunning cars in the field 👌👌👌👍👍👍
Thanks Craig. Yer it was a great day out. It’s good to see these cars being driven hard as they should. 😎🤟🏻
Glad you made it back, takes the piss that a garage/service station doesn't sell oil, and probably nothing else car related, to keep you motoring..sells coffee though 🙄
Yer coffee and stale pasties by the bucket load. Lol
The blue Sierra looked lovely
Some absolute beautiful cars there! Cool video! Cheers
Great video Mike some Lovely cars to watch at donnington excellent footage cheers . Also if I can say ,Pushing your car down the road not to piss your neighbours off ,what a true gent you are !!

Where can we find info on the engine build 😍
Stumbled across your channel, absolutely brilliant loved watching this you definitely need to get to more tracks with a go pro in the track car again 🚙👍🇬🇧
thanks Andy. i need to invest in a proper roll cage mount as this was only held in with cable ties lol
@@mikefpe it did a grand job, my pal at work has a mk2 fiesta with a forged st170 turbo lump in it it’s mental, I’m watching your build from scratch , awesome 🚀👍🇬🇧
Love the throttle bodies on that MK3 escort 👍❤️
Looks like an awesome series, can’t wait to hopefully get out to some race meetings this year🙏
Mallory is the next one. I’m tempted to try and get to Anglesey
Brilliant video pal I was hooked. Would have gone to this If it wasn't a closed event only live up the road 😁
Mallory is the next one. I’m going to try and venture up to Anglesey
@RC Action 13th June and it’s open to the public

@@mikefpe haha ok pal, great build anyway.
Great footage. Thanks for sharing.👍
Cheers nick 👍🏻
Sure would like to have one of those engines in my 67 Mustang. I believe it would really make BETTY run real faster.
Great video, did I see a mk3 Escort in the back of your garage, what are the plans for it, if any?, thanks.
Just going to get it running reliably and get a ticket on it… for now
Awesome all of it .20 mins away too.
Mike great vid can we see your MK3 with wide arc and spoiler lol
I don’t think I could do it to it.
That mark 3 is siiikkkk!!
Just looking back over some of your video's. Love the car. Can you tell me about your split rims? They appear to have Two Gates Alley Cat centers?
They are graku 13” centres in Schmidt 14” stepper dishes 😉👍🏻
Great Stuff! thanks for the upload!
J adore Cette voiture, bravo beau travail 👍
Also that white puma DTM widebody looks insane! Anyone know the owner?
What a great idea for a series, 100% following this now...that NA growl 🥴💦
Yer makes me want a stonking Na race engine on big boy throttle bodies !
@@mikefpe hell yeah! Bwaaaaaaaaarr 😉
Top notch stuff indeed 💯
Thanks. Was a great day out. Looking forward to things opening up and enjoying more events like this
Great video guys 👍
Loved the video
Orange roll cage and hair to match.Cool as !

It's like you have the shakes cause you haven't had a drink holding that camera shaking like mad!
A like button just isnt enough.
Is there any room on the dash for a clock 🙊 🕐🕜🕝🕒🕞🕓🕟🕔🕠🕗🕘😜👍🏻
Yo dog we heard you like gauges 😂😂😂😂
First time seen this channel geaat video.
Like the Zewspeed sticker reminds me of Zakspeed
Ha I kind of based it on the old rip speed stickers from back in the day. I take a lot of my inspiration from 80’s rallycross.
That Mk3 will be a fucking hoot round Malory 👌
Is that Paul Linfoot rs500 ?
How can 6 people give this a thumbs down ? Fantastic video - well done would have loved to have seen this live
thanks :)
Anymore info on the RS200???? Looks mental
No but il try and do a walk round video of it next event I go to.

Own a RS200 belive it or not
