Here is some in car footage from 25th May Hillclimb. I share drove the EK with my daughter and we placed 1st and 3rd in a class a 15 cars against a few EP3's etc. Enjoy.:-)

Looks like your having a ball out there Brian, keep up the good work!

Some pics of second car taken this morning, I had planned to strip it and turn it into a rally car but I just can't bring myself to do it having used it for a while. So I am selling this one and stripping my other one. This one is standard apart from the wheel nuts, carbon spoiler and uprated...

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated! Just for fun here is an in car vid from my 1300cc Mk2 Escort. It was taken at the 2012 Guernsey round of the British National Hillclimb Championship.I will make sure I hook up a camera in the EK this season. Relentless 1297cc BDH Mk2 Escort...

They are multiplying.

Heres a couple of pictures before I start stripping.

Here's a couple of piccies from our main Motorsports presentation last Saturday. Overall Island champion for the 3rd year running. 3rd place was a 600bhp Chevy powered racing car 2nd place was a Methanol burning 2.0 carbon tubbed Dallara. 1st place EK9. Points are accumulated against course...

Well I've only gone and bought another EK9!! This one is going to be a rally car so if anyone needs any trim bits let me know as I will be stripping the interior. My daughters have a lot to answer for. :-)

I settled for Kumho Ecsta V700/V70 in Super soft on the rear and Medium on the front. Pretty impressed if I'm honest, for road tyres they do work very well straight out of the blocks. If I were to do longer events then harder compounds would be a must though. Very progressive feel and good...

45 and I love the little thing, gotta say I had a few looks from the youngsters at the first race meeting I did with it as if to say really?? They soon changed their tune when the old boy gave them a whoopin! Ha ha, great fun and an awesome package the EK9. I'm back in my trusty old Escorts...

Thanks Ray, it's just the front really. I need to dial in 1/2 degree of Neg camber to get the tyres working at 100%. the rears are working great as they are. It seems with the standard rear geometry that as you lower so you gain a little neg. Yes I was very pleased to do so well, I have been...

Afternoon all, well since the season has finished I have done absolutely diddley squat to the EK apart from use it pretty much every day for work etc, still exactly how it finished the last event but as the time will be soon upon us for the new season to start I suppose I best get my backside in...

They are going to be 24 in January!!(twins) Boy do I feel old (45 in a few days) :lol: I use the EK9 every day as a road car and really love the little thing! I'm even looking into a reverse rotation B16B for another project!! Great little engines. Me and the girls at local 2011...

I have been using 195/50/15 Kumho Ecsta V700's all year on both road and for Hillclimbs and have been really impressed. I started with super soft front and rear but the fronts were too soft for the dry.I use Medium now on the front for dry and Super soft on the rear. If heading for a track I...

Cheers guys, unfortunately I didn't get to try the Mugen rep header as I have been struggling with a trapped nerve in my back but I will keep you posted when I get it fitted.:naughty:
