Yes, they certainly were real race cars.
They ran similarly powered Escorts too.
You could import their bodykit at the time.

Thankfully that kit made it look alot less like a Crapi, the rear windows look more KE25ish.
Cool nonetheless :D
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

You've been looking at ugly Holdens too long and now your eyes are incapable of taking in something of beauty :P
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.
