It is a way different story now however. you can ask ken if you want but... there are a lot of ef's on here that pwn ba falcons too mate. FYI. we are running kens xt tonight to see what it runs down the quarter now. its certainly had a hard life since he had it. wana see some vids?

yeh, vids would be good. Economy mode is just as good as power mode. Fuel usage would make a negligible difference and i've driven a few ef's and el's in my time and they weren't any quicker than a BA. I just think 3 car lengths is a gross exaggeration.

Oh and i did call ken to clarify that, and he said it was two car lengths hehe..
and when we go on cruises it gets beaten at the start by all the efs.. so it must be something to do with its mass. also the ef was owned by ken, so it was sort of used to being snappy and going 'hard' like I said, its a different story now hehe.. Its faster than an xr6 na ba falcon. must be something to do with its lighter weight.

also a bit of useless trivia, on that skidpan day at gympie we did a time trial around a track there in the wet and ken and I got the same times of 1.07. the xr6 turbo managed 1.10 and so did the 12 second silvia. we still got pwnt by a focus xr5 turbo

well my ef ran 15.882 tonight, ken buggered his second shift up and ran a bit slower than me but that thing reeled me in down the quarter anyway.
I would love to see one of those engines running properly in an ea or something lighter. PWNT a lot of cars HEHE KENS BA did a 15.7 second pass. and the ef did a 15.882 pass so bugger all in it. there was also a modded ba xt there with exhaust extractors high flow cat and intake mods of some description - ran the same times as ken did. just remember my car also has an lpg tank fitted and other s**t like a sun hat and spot lights HEH. cheers sam
