you mighthave some slight blockage in the radiator.
you cant tell until you take it out and take the tanks off unfortunatly (dont think ford would do that). also sticking thermostat or not opening fully.
Thats where I would start.

13.02@111.52 2.121 60'
13.04@112.00 2.136 60'
on nangkang 235-45-17
pb done on factory dunlops

best I could do !

Traction was huge problem. Breaks into axle tramp.
Played with tyre pressures.
Started at 20 psi I thought it was going to break a cv!
Down to 15psi better but still there!
Sutty said he would let me use his MT's next time out.
What do you recon?
