Laminge,
I would help but Im not lowering my standards by having to join with those morons,
anyway a good point to fight back on, saying holden have to derate the SS is true, but tell them the true story,
HSV has threatened to shut up shop if holden bring out the SS in a 255kw, HSV say that they will not produce cars if this is to be the case. So after their dummy spitting holden agreed to derate the SS. that is THE ONLY REASON.
Anyway, mate, dont let yourself be dragged to their level, we KNOW how good the XRs are and we dont need to prove it to anyone, anyone that needs to run down another car mut not have very good faith in their own car.

Teza, why not it's fun! We are not lowering ourselves to their standards, we're showing a bit of passion. Something we Ford fans have been lacking for too long. I say lettem' have it!

I had enough givng flack to holden poeple. I do it on the Supercars.net forum and I do it in mIRC. The fun factor has just about gone out of it now.

to compare this to the XR8 which is fully blueprinted and has every last bit of performance strangled out of the shitty WIndor engine!!!
Then howcome the Herrod stroked Xplode concept get's 350kw? Jeez, some poeple are just plain ignorant. I'd rather "waste" my time chatting positive about ford than negative about Holden.
GOOD LUCK LAMINGE! LET THE FORCED INDUCTION BE WITH YOU...
