Fantastic...Would fill this entire site if I submitted all the pics!!.. Some great cars, Laminges T series( though not finished...WOW!) Really good of Ford to let the public see just what goes on behind the FPV doors!1 XR6T that caught the eye was a Congo Green outsite the engine plant!! ( No pic sorry)..Changed, totally my opinion of green!..Another was the Blueprint XRt parked near the engine plant! ( SLOJAM) ...Hey , you following me Dave?? ( 2 days running) One thing that surprised was the Turbo utes only have a one piece tailshaft?.. This means they are limited to 180ks!.. You'd think they woulda put the 2 piece in this baby??... Enclosed a couple of pics, No doubt Richdave & some others will submit more?ADD UP THE Kw's HERE!!! ( & they're 290's Not 260's) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/1113-fpv-open-day/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
