Title: FordFair 2007, My car and Geoff Kershaws car.
Post by twinturbo on Aug 7^th, 2007, 12:53pm

I was on the FordPower stand with the scorpio for ford fair. And next to my Ultima, was Geoff Kershaws rather brilliant Car. We were verh honoured to have the car with us, he left it there for the day whilst he went of to work, and then came back and had a chat with some of our members.

Top Bloke, Top car!

Dave Howard was also on the stand with his Sierra Minker 323. ( RARE!!!)

Did anyone else make it to the show?

My car just rolled over 160,000 miles this morning. It's going to have to come off the road next week though for rad/exhaust and suspension work.

Geoff is prety much mr Turbo Technics. As Mat says.

BOA 24V with twin turbo's and 4x4 ( lots of fabrication ) aparently the car was built for a customer who decided he did not want it ( or something ) so Geoff kept it. Geoff runs a TwinTurbo 24V track car too.

My drop, it's a TOYO Proxy Kit ;) wrong tyre section means the car sits an inch or so lower than normal!!! Pain in the bum realy as it catches on lots of things!!

Geoff owns turbo technics, which is reguarded as one of the top turbo companies in Europe.

He advises main engine manufactures all around the world on turbo installs.

Currently he is so busy that 2 production lines in the U.S.A & 1 in China are at a stand still waiting for him to finish the work he does yet he still found time to come & see us.

That's why he is such a Top Bloke & he is a Scorpio owner too ;D
