krawler Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Amazing.... Absolutely amazing. Anyone care to point out that most land-barge soccer-mum 4x4s can do 200k/hour? Given that 4x4s are generally unsafe at anything above a stand still (and even then its a close call), that would make them sort of super-mega-death-killing-weapons-of-mass-destruction-vehicle-of-infinite-justice-and-death ... Ban 4x4s long before banning "performance" cars. Strange how a car that handles better, stops better and is safer at high speeds (which obviously means safer at road legal speeds too) is somehow considered "dangerous", yet these monstrosities that are likely to roll over and cause permanent disabilities, if not death, at even 12k/hour are trusted to women with no fscking driving ability or situational awareness who then stuff them full of kids and head off to soccer. So frustratingly stupid. Gimme 10 mins of air time and I'll rant.

Parag0n Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I think this is a pretty impressive effort by Ford, good to see a Aussie Manufacturer willing to use Turbos.

My MegaDangerous import is speed limited to 180kmh but your taxipak falcon can go faster with skinny sh1t tires and coffee tin lids for brakes.

timbar32 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Don't put speed limiters on them. If the speed limit on most aussie roads is 110, and the FPV can do 100 in second, limit them to only having 2-3 gears! lol Prob solved.... Hey man, wanna score a black market 4 speed.......
