      Sound like heaps of fun.

      Would love to see some pictures. Quite a few of the lads in our local RSOC group have got track toys, ranging from Bonkers Escos's to a track prepped Nissan Almera!! They have a hoot every time they are out in them.

                    should be able to buy a reasonable mileage 2 litre zetec for £100 or so

                    Youll also need the water pump, sump, pickup pipe and flywheel from a 1.8 zetec escort or Fiesta,( NOT THE 1.8 MONDEO, THATS ALL THE SAME AS THE 2.0 MONDEO), and a 220mm clutch from a series 2 RST(series one rst has 200mm clutch wont fit flywheel)

                    good luck with the conversion mate, it will make the wee car a flyer, youll love it, great fun

                    ALAN:- Pity you and Sharon wont be there mate, youll miss a great day, Ill put some photos up of the day next week, let you see what your missing,
