One the way home tonight my friend and I were sitting at the stop light when this car pulls up next to me and revs up. I turn to look at the car and there sitting next to me was the Imfamous Ford Festiva Type-S. I could see the car had it's +50 HP duct tape racing stripes and the all intimidating Ford Racing sticker in the back passenger window. I'm trying not to laugh but I made the mistake of looking over at my friend. He looks at me and says "Rice rice baby" in a bad asian accent. I lost it and busted up laughing. While I was laughing the light turned green and the Fast and Furious Ford takes off. I know you all are saying why didn't I take off after him and beat him. Well I would have if I hadn't seen "Type R this... bizatch" in bad vinyl lettering in his rear window. Seeing that triggered another fit of laughter. By the time I stopped laughing the light turned red. I admit I was beat by the Fast and Furious Type-S Ford Festiva....

People laugh at Ford Escorts until they learn about the Escort RS Cosworth that had 227bhp.

you don't run 13.7's at 96 mph i think your lying. A 13.7 should be somewhere between 102 and 108 mph.
