MOTOR's got the report on the XR6T in Targa. sounds like it was pretty sharp when they got it going right

The report on Targa was the highlight of that issue.

Funny, that Quinn found it hard to pass a limping STOCK XR6 Turbo.

I took interest in the brake pedal problems they had with the Brembos. But that's to take away from a great effort.

I found it a great effort, with all the problems they had they still managed to bring some highlights. My favourite was passing the R34 GTR heheheh David vs Godzilla (j/k so don't bother flaming me). Job well done to Ford and Herrods and to all the crew!!

Yes.. A very impressive effort. Perhaps we could see one of these cars in a future upgrade?? Say BA2 or BA3?
Be a perfect place to test new gear on a car.

Impressive effort to keep ahead of Quinn's 911 Turbo with a broken engine mount aswell

It was a great read....I particularly liked the quote, "One glorious stage cleared up any doubts we might have had about the XR6T's legitimacy as a sports sedan. Now we have none. Two parts failed. Neither of them made it into the production car. And both would have been changed had there been more preparation time."

That sums up the quality product Ford have produced. Good work guys.
