chavs in rs turbo

[mr2 dan]

give a chav a rs turbo and think they can win any race lol how wrong he was .
was driving along just about to pass on the out side of him on a slip road about 80 and all i could see was a grin and lots of warrrrrrrr pssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so i floor it in 4th and he going no where got to a big round about and nail it in firs and second to the read line and pulled like a mofo. he did a cheep move and nealy ran in so old person. can carried on with lots of noise and i sat on it all the way and hardly even hit the power band . safe to say in the end i showed him some 3rd gear power and went past like it was stud still. lol

Well done for trouncing them. you do us proud. Acceleration is futile.

standard Turbo escorts are about as quick or slow as MR2 N/as

[BLOODUK]

rs turbo 130BHP - 150BHP as standard

[Dale_V]

an RS turbo will unlikely be standard these days , quite easy to get big power as you can imagine

I've had a couple of 'experiences' of RS's. One was a chav in a Fiesta RS Turbo which I beat quite comfortably. The other was a middle aged bloke in a Fiesta RS1800, this was surprisingly quick and it was pretty much dead even on the straights.

...errr... no! I don't think so.

A 3sfe beating a scooby? What a load of b0ll0x! Did it have 4 flat tyres? Even then it would have beat a 3sfe.

Not all RS Turbos are chav owned though.

Most are modified these days - there are a couple of Fiesta pushing 600+bhp (admittedy there's not much left of the original running gear ) and I know of one Escort RS Turbo running 350bhp and it looks standard

Can be made to go very fast but they drive the wrong wheels

Series 1s also have that rarity, and a small bit of rallying pedigree. S2s have no real rallying pedigree, but plenty of Maccy Ds credibility

True.. that would enable me to get the obligatory spotty, teenage, cider drinking (or whatever it is these days ) girlfriend?

Think I'll stick to being branded a hairdresser and drive the Mk3

a scooby sport is as standard 120bhp they are non turbo, i didnt say it was an STI or anything but its still a scooby and he couldnt get close!!!, dont know what 3sfe you have driven or come across but mine is plenty fast enough!!!
