about 175ish mashing it off the limiter in 6th on the wheels that I have, however I only pulled 120 odd at totb because it started to fall apart about 130mph.

The Fiesta St will only do 130 mph top speed, what power has the zetec S got?


100bhp, it will also do more a bit more than 130 as my good mate in work has the fiesta st

125 was speedo speed with a bit more to go, i'm guessing it would have about 118 max speed.

LMFAO that was a fiat coupe living up to the reliability stereotype, best thing was the wheel went across the 1/4 mile strip. Mine got to about 7k in 6th gear after half a mile an then proceeded to wander all over the place, with a nice pointy looking fence on one side
