instablaster.
BDA Sound ist Music , Lovely
I'm pretty sure that's a 2000 BDA. Can't quite put my finger on why though. 😉
wordreet I see your point 😉😉

If I remember correctly they were F2 engines. And the fixed cylinder liners were so thin they were virtually transparent. But then it was originally a 1600 cc cylinder block :-O
It's tattooed on the driver's forehead.
@@probablygraham 😂 Prolly right!
Great vid! We had Escorts in Brazil as well but they were newer than the ones in the video.
BDA for ever
Looks like a replica of the Broadspeed built VMW Motors Group 2 Escort that raced in the British Saloon Car Championship in 71, 72 driven by Vince Woodman.
Much better than Nascar!!
Sheer beautiful music❤😎👍
I would love to see a race around the track between an Escort like this, against say 5 other new cars!! Ones priced in the same bracket as what this Escort cost to get to what it is. If ot beats them, get more expensive cars to race against it. Do that until you get a factory version modern car that can beat it, then check the price difference!!
Pretty sure my factory-spec Scooby would beat it.
But would swap in a heartbeat.
@@minshum would make for an interesting race!!! Someone must put such a race together!!! 😃
I was lucky enough to go to saloon car races in the 1970s when the BDA Escorts raced against muscle cars like Ford Mustangs and Chevrolet Camaros. The big American cars thundered off into the distance on the straights, but the Escorts caught up with them around the corners because of their superior handling. There is very little footage, but this clip is from my favourite circuit in those days - Crystal Palace - where many of the Formula 1 drivers used to meet up and race each other in Formula 2 cars every year.

Sadly the two great names of the time are missing in this clip - the great Frank Gardner and John Fitzpatrick.
That Escort really handles.
That's THE SOUND 📢
DJ Punchi?
The belt driven assembly...sounds like victory.
a bda badass escort..louder than a flat six!! a V twelve!!!
No better sound than a twin cam escort
Just how formidable to reckon with are Escorts in racing? Just looks like a simple little car to the unfamiliar.
Hey belgian-motorsport,heb je toevallig geen on-board beelden of een you-tube kanaal van de eigenaar?
Is bda een soort ford motor of een bedrijf die motoren bouwt?
Nice vid👍
hey, Ik zelf heb geen onboard, maar er zijn wel onboard video's van andere escorts met BDA motor te vinden. BDA is een type ford motor.
😍
What's in that?
According to my 1973 documentation a 1973 to 1997 cc Cosworth BDA engine. DOHC 16 valve. Between 250 and 280 BHP at around 9000 rpm dependent on the tuner. They were F2 spec engines but some cast iron and some aluminum. The story was that from 1971 F2 allowed for 2000 cc so all 1600 were bored to 2000 cc. For the BDA which cylinder block originated from the old 1000 cc Anglia that was a bit of a problem so the standard Cosworth was 1973 cc. Later Hart and Zakspeed managed to squeeze 1997 cc from the shell thin cylinder liners. In 1973 Cosworth relased an all aluminum block but apparently the max capacity remained 1997 cc.
Woah... @ 0:10 tho... 😎😎😎✌🏽

😵 Should’ve got that blue flag out earlier
