In this thrilling installment from the 1320video channel, we witness the Ford Escort's quest for speed as it embarks on its second pass of the day. The team is determined to achieve a nine-second pass, and their previous attempt clocked in at an impressive 10:03. The Escort's launch is described as nothing short of mind-blowing, leaving the host in awe and exclaiming, "What the hell was that?!" The anticipation builds as we eagerly await the outcome of this exhilarating run.
But wait, there's more! The video takes an unexpected turn as the host introduces us to a pink Ford Escort with K all-wheel drive. This rare gem catches his attention, as he fondly recalls seeing similar Escorts in his childhood. Curiosity piqued, he engages the owner in conversation, learning that this unique vehicle boasts a JDM K24 turbo engine with a staggering 575 horsepower. The owner's goal? To achieve a nine-second pass, a feat that has yet to be accomplished.
As the conversation continues, the owner reveals the secret behind the Escort's all-wheel drive setup. By ingeniously utilizing Honda all-wheel drive components, including a CRV transmission, a three-ler drive shaft, and a CRV rear differential, he has transformed this classic into a true force to be reckoned with. The Escort's weight, a mere 2500 pounds, combined with its impressive 571 horsepower to the front tires, ensures an exhilarating ride.
With the stage set, the Escort takes to the track once again, delivering a consistent performance with a time of 10:05. The host is captivated by the car's aggressive launch and praises its suspension setup, which contributes to its impressive performance. The owner's determination is evident as he shares his aspirations of competing in the 10 class, showcasing the Escort's potential to dominate the competition.
Unfortunately, the Escort encounters a setback in the form of a front differential failure. However, the owner remains undeterred, revealing that he has a spare at home, ready to get the car back on track. The video concludes with the host expressing his admiration for the Escort's remarkable performance and eagerly anticipating its future endeavors. With its striking color, powerful engine, and unwavering determination, this Ford Escort is a true testament to the passion and ingenuity of its owner.
