Ford Cortina Drag Racing Compilation

[@markchapmon8670]

I was in Germany for a few years in the mid-80's and a friend had a Ford Taunus (may be mispelled) that looked a lot like the Cortina. I liked it a lot.

[@ogorekkiszony7236]

I’m 16 and just got my first car, a mk5 1.6 GL cortina.

[@mk1kieran]

Nice choice!

[@MohammedBham-fe8cr]

Wow

[@randyneil6161]

I had to pause this video when I saw the white ford cortina doing 8 seconds. My dad owned several cortina with one of them was modified with a powerful nissan engine. This video brings back childhood memories.

[@ScottRods]

My first car was a Mk4 Cortina 1.6L This video brings back fond memories, thank you.

[@woooster17]

Nice.. my first car after passing my test in ‘89 was a MkV 2L Cortina.. it was silver, but I resprayed it in grey primer and left it like that.. Lowered it with Spax springs, added a 4 branch Ashley manifold and exhaust, K&N air filter, fitted Sierra XR4i alloys... and fitted dark tinted polycarbonate clip on front light covers and sprayed the rear lenses black.. Bloody loved that car! Some dozy bint in a Merc killed it after pulling out straight in front of me 😕 Great vid 👍🏼

I learnt to drive in a red Ford Cortina "B" Reg (1964 model?). My dad used to do his own servicing as the engines were more simple/more accessible then!

[@shauniesshow5381]

[@mk1kieran]

[@meditationzoner1225]

I had a mark 4 cortina with a 253 holden v8 built in. With a celica gear box 9inch dif. It made people turn heads, it even freaked some out holden motor inside a ford.

[@shaunwest3612]

Great video Kieran, lovely old fords,and very quick 👌😀

[@jsmcortina]

Lots of good cars, it would have been nice to have seen Mick Rogers black mk3 (rolled many years back now)

[@standupgee1]

Cool car when I was a kid dad always had cortinas he had a mk1 lotus which was nice but my favourite was the 4 running a cosworth that he built that thing was fast

[@watergate9557]

I’ve driven on the track at Hal Far and I say it slopes down towards the finish line. Change my mind 🤔

[@mk1kieran]

It is slightly downhill yes some tracks just are

[@watergate9557]

Mk1Kieran which would contribute to the fast times they record 🤔

[@peterlee6745]

[@anthonyg638]

And I thought it was only us Australians who were crazy enough to put a V8 in a Cortina .....

[@devil0373]

Any footage of the grey mk 4 with the twin turbos (rover motor?) making a proper pass?

[@mk1kieran]

devil037 unfortunately not , I don’t think it’s fully dialled one yet

[@autogleamvaletsful]

The grey cortina was running a rover v8 with 2 lorry turbos and was the first season she had been on the track and was being run in but then another engine was fitted but was decided wasn't big enough but is now in the process off having a bigger engine fitted she should be back at santa pod next year 2022

The Cortinas, the Escorts and the Anglias use to rule Jamaican roads then the Japanese cars took over.

[@satanssurfer5965]

Fast Fords do it in under 10 seconds.

[@ronwest7930]

I guess I like gassers better. I would rather see v8 powered Anglias.

[@mk1kieran]

Most of these were built before they had any value or classic status
