Test Drive: Ford F6 Tornado Vs Super Pursuit ****track Vid****

[GTS_300_Coupe]

I know you are all (mostly) import fans here, but I found this video and thought it was pretty cool and interesting.

Its always good to know about the other cars (domestics) and we can all agree that Ford > Holden.

Anyway hope you all enjoy!

F6 Tornado vs Super Pursuit

[IOWNU]

haha nice.

"Once you get going, no v8 is going to catch you"

welcome to the world of turbos.

[ctjet]

i miss my old turbo

[krzysiu]

i seen this on tv a while ago.

Go the turbo

[monaroCountry]

With that type of launch I wouldnt mind lining them up .......Aust jurnos are idiots.

V8 turbo = no Tornado can catch

I wouldnt mind seeing the torque curve on those two. One thing going against the V8 is its a heavier beast.

pft, i wouldnt give you much over 10buks for all 3 of your organs.

[PHATR32]

dude, i dont drink as much as you do.

im suprised yours are still working.

That video is a joke as they have no idea how to launch a car.

The new Auto Typhoon/Tornado has been clocked at 0-100km/h in 5.1 and the 1/4 in a 13.2 straight from the factory. If you plug a Ford Edit into it, expect a mid 12sec 1/4.

These cars are simply awsome with the new ZF 6 speed auto.

id love an F6... even an XR6T would do.

13.2, i dont think so. With 260kw and all that barge it would be in the high end of 13's with a good driver ..

270kW and 550Nm torque.

The new 6 speed auto is pretty advanced.

A low 13 1/4 mile is possible I believe.

[342Four]

the v8 has 290 and 520 going for it

while the i6t has 270 and 550 - the most torque ever for an ozzy built car

un freakin believable

wait till they come out with the territory turbo and then see if they adapt the drivetrain from that and put it in a sedan mmmmm 245kw i6t all wheel drive

[Frink]

interesting.....

however, i was concerned about the size of the wing mirrors on the ute. the whole time i was totally sh1tting myself, wondering if she could see what was happening behind her

HAHA!

That was cool.

However I would still prefer the V8 though.

[Taipan]

i have driven my sisters Typhoon on a number of times its a lot faster then my liner but doesn’t handle as good all wheel drive would b awesome. Cant wait to see some footage of the DRIF6 Typhoon

try 12.9 and 270kw for a STOCK auto BF Typhoon

[Busky2k]

Goddamn it, Aussie cars are getting too quick for their own good! Good on them though...

[ODessA]

i hate the way aussie tv shows are so fkn cheesy about things.

they always have to cheese the shit up so the average wanker whos sitting around waiting for burkes backyard and getaway to start sit through it.

nice cars but, would never buy one though.

no chance

a stock gtr in the real world has about 240kw and is 250kg lighter+awd and will pull a flat 13...

you have either never driven a 12sec car or you are smoking too much weed
