Ford fans don't come much bigger than Patrick, or rather P-Dubs, as he is known by many in the racing community down in Cape Town.

SEE | This mega-Ford fan owns all three generations of potent Focus RS cars - Here's which one is his fave All of this runs from the car's original sensors without the need to add auxiliary sensors which is normally the case on other applications. The car also runs on clean ethanol which results in zero emissions which is possible through the intricate SH3 system with precision programming.Once the engine was successfully bolted together, Zain estimated the power to be around the 450kW+ mark. A dyno run done on low boost shows a reading of 400kW.

Patrick fondly reminisces each gear on the run and the build-up to setting a new record:"Green lights and the butterflies in my stomach disappear, adrenaline takes over. First gear was short-lived, bang into second, and smoke pouring from the semi-slick tyres, third gear and more of the same. Fourth gear, and still smoking the tyres as a result of the 1000Nm through the front wheels but I kept my foot in it, and the car found traction.

Because of an-already paid for overseas holiday, Patrick could not attend the 'King of ST' event and Patrick drilled it into Prash that he wanted a new record when he gets back home. Boy, was he in for a surprise.

Two British nationals plead guilty to entering South Africa illegallyRemorseful UK duo, who bolted past border officials, made a contribution to the Solidarity Fund as a show of 'good faith' Zimbabwean parasites would rather feel entitled and demand food parcels and RDP houses than plead guilty... Why is this fee so high do the Zimbabweans. Mozambiqueans and other African state pay the same for entering SA illegally? Treat everyone fairly any tom dick and harry can in SA. Shows level of incompetence with our government. Land for anyone who live in it.

South Africa's mass testing hits limits as virus spreadsSouth Africa's aggressive COVID-19 screening and testing approach is modelled on years of experience fighting tuberculosis and HIV. REALLY WHAT DOES THAT STATEMENT “YOU MADE” EVEN “MEAN” !!!!!!!! This is NOT JOURNALISM , IT INCITES PURE “NEGATIVITY”.. “STOP” THESE “UNCALLED FOR” STATEMENTS THAT AMOUNT TO “ABSOLUTELY NOTHING” !!!!!!!! Even when there were only 2,200 samples to process it took SA labs 9 days to return results. Every country has had to increase capacity. Wuhan will be testing all 11M residents & Germany tests all school kids, twice a week! Survival depends on the response The health minister has ever said the testing capacity would reach to 30,000 per day in the end of April, but it’s not happening due to the kit supply, and now the result delay are everywhere, we are far behind of the real infection status.
