FPV_GTHO's quiz

[fpv_gtho]

This isnt a 20 questions type of quiz, its pretty close to Egg Nog's, but i wont be the one asking all the questions and it wont be on a weekly basis. How its going to work, is someone will ask a question and offer at least 4 multiple questions. To start off, i will ask the question. People will then guess whoch one they think is correct, and after either all possible answers have ben chosen or the question has been running for a couple of days, the person asking the question will tell the answer. Whoever was the first to ask the question then gets to ask the next question. If the situation arises that the person asking the question gave the wrong answer, if possible the person who guessed the correct answer will take the next question, but if that is not possible i will take the question.

OK then now for the first question:
What engine did the XR Falcon GT have?

a) 302 Windsor V8
b) 289 Windsor V8
c) 351 Windsor V8
d) 351 Cleveland V8

unfortunately it seems the question i asked is too hard for anyone who isnt either a falcon enthusiast or an australian car enthusiast. the answer was the 289 windsor V8 so take it away Touran

[fpv_gtho]

ok i feel obliged to start this all over again with a much easier question for the non-australian members of the site.

which model porsche 911 was the first with a water cooled engine?

a) 930
b) 964
c) 993
d) 996

[baddabang]

its the 996

[HoldenHFV6]

Yep it is the 996. I think the first ever water cooled engine Porsche used was in the Porsche 928 in 1977 with a water cooled V8.

[fpv_gtho]

its the 996

take it away

[Smokescreen]

as for the first question, I'd say D, considering A & B don't exist.

[fpv_gtho]

i shouldnt be bothering with this since i gave up on the first question after only one person had a guess, then deleted their post, but the 289W was the right answer for the XRGT and the 302W was first in the XTGT and has featured in many Australian cars including the XC Falcon Cobra, every XR8 until the BA model and was stroked to 5.6L for the 2002 model TE50

[fpv_gtho]

baddabang, are you going to take your turn or not?

[fpv_gtho]

Yep it is the 996. I think the first ever water cooled engine Porsche used was in the Porsche 928 in 1977 with a water cooled V8.

since baddabang has shown no interest in asking a question himself, do you want to?

um all of em?.....hehe i just had a flashback to the "warren" adds on tv, where the dood "warren" on his virgin mobile phone is asking for girls to text him, and he gets a message from a guy called "richard", then he says, "thanks for your message richard i just wished the girls were as responsive"........well i thought it was funny =P

[fpv_gtho]

lol, the point wasnt whether people considered them a real engine, it was which one wasnt produced, as in, which one did i make up

[SHAKER]

LOL oh i thought i was a odd question.
