Re: Old VS. New Top gear video

Very good!

The Mk4 vs Mk1 GTI was pretty close, I am not sure that wasn't driver determined, even if not, I think that the Mk4 has a little more potential with a couple bolt-ons vs the Mk1. They also were doing 1/5 mile passes not 1/4 mile passes for some reason, probably to make the races closer.

I have guessed the new cars would win except the Escort Cosworth and 300zx which would probably be faster than their new counterparts because they are turbocharged.... just a guess.

PS the Escort Cosworth (1992) becomes legal for import next year I think.

The one thing too that I wonder is, was that a 150 hp or 180hp?

I found it entertaining. I'd like to have either of those fords too!
