    Makes sense as to why he's fitted the drags on. The torque must feel like a sledgehammer, thanks yet again RR

    Great review of ProjectFGX, Ross. What a great build. I love that video of him gapping that Lambo. It’s such a quick Falcon, it makes such a difference with the tyre setup for traction. You can hardly hear it spinning the wheels when launching it. I’ve followed the Falcon on Instagram for a while now. The owner has put a lot of great work into this car to make it what it is. Once again, it’s a credit to him. I enjoyed the review.

    What a great build - and that 3.7 with two blokes in the front! Just shows what the Falcon can do with some good rubber. He should do that oil pump impeller though, relatively cheap and easy mod for the insurance it gives you.

    Love the Exhaust Note. With all XR6 Turbo from 2003-2016 I love the Original 2003 BA series 1 XR6 Turbo. With Typhoons have to go F6 310.

    As one of the first drag radial, non-daily driver car set ups tested - this is number one in my new Ross Review drag car lists. The other 80+ reviews will remain on the street car list.
    It’s about time too that someone finally rigged the roll racing from a prepped surface to give the RWD boys a fighting chance and see more Australian made vehicles be able to be competitive.👍

    Hi. Thanks to you both (owner and you) for this review. This car is an awesome sleeper. Only the tyres show you, that this car has power under the hood. 3,7 sec from 0 to 100 is really really fast !!!
    Best regards from Germany

    If the Falcon and the Barra is still produced by Ford Motor Co today, it would be possible to bring back the Falcon Sapphire with a Bara motor that has more power and torque than the Lucid Sapphire, the world's fastest sedan. Ford just needs to make sure it gets fitted with All Wheel Drive and two LSDs to successfully launch it quicker than the Lucid in the quarter mile.

  • @arrivendrive6831
    @arrivendrive6831 Рік тому +3

    Wow!!! I did not know that a Falcon can out perform a lambo. The Falcon must have some good brakes and suspension to out perform a Lambo. Unfortunely we don't get the Falcons in the U.S.A.

      When he said Lambo killer, I assumed he was saying that the car in the video would outperform the Lambo. I understand now, it could out accelerate a lambo.

    Jk jk great job bro im all about the underdog winning.
    Good to see some meats on a powerful Barra 🎉🎉🎉🎉
    Also good tuning for how the boost ramps in and the big meats on the back thats why 0-60 is so fast.
    I wish every car you reviewed that is rwd has meats so that it can hook.
