Where is this car now

Re: Fostek's R&D department

Can you remember what speed sensor you used and it look like a smaller bolt in what would be a bigger hole there. I have the same JEMS setup but no speed sensor fitted and I see you have used the disc bolts. Was it two wire or 3?

Poor quality picture, but looks like the old GT101

Original Honeywell discontinued now, but there are others who make copies.

Re: Fostek's R&D department

It is with a heavy heart that I can tell you all that Tom and I have decided to sell this Mk2 Escort. We no longer have the time to use the car and it is such a waste seeing it sitting doing nothing. It needs to be out competing and that means in tarmac rallies, Sprints, Hillclimbs or Circuit racing. It is so light and nimble that it it will shine in any of these. The advert is on MOTORSPORT AUCTIONS.

Re: Fostek's R&D department

Would love to see an update on the car, have you considered having the steering columns made? I'd love one it's a bit more piece of mind than a welded one

Re: Fostek's R&D department

I nearly forgot, it's a massive thanks to Damian at Daytuner ( rolling road in Harrogate ) and Steve Broughton at SBD Motorsport for their help with this amazing set up. Their service at all times has been outstanding and I think the result shows that.
We are out on track again at Croft on 25th September .. I am geeet excited and for an old chap like me thats proably a bit sad but what the hell.

Any updates on the car?

Re: Fostek's R&D department

Sorry if I misjudged what Damian does. I've only seen him dealing with ECU type stuff.

Re: Fostek's R&D department

We've been busy perfecting all the systems on the car and today was yet another visit to the rolling but I hope the result will make you as happy as I am with it. I still am amazed at how slick the fly by wire throttle and gear changes are. Don't forget to turn up the volume.
