	Ford Torino Talladega - Wikicars
		Named after the Talladega Superspeedway racetrack in Alabama, it was a special racing version of the Ford Torino produced specifically to make Ford competitive in NASCAR racing, and was sold to the public only because homologation rules required a certain number of sales to the public.
		Unusually, Ford homologated the engine separately from the car it was to race in; production Talladegas received the Ford 428 Cobra Jet, which while powerful was not intended as a racing engine, while the racing engines were installed in the limited-production Ford Mustang Boss 429.
		Today, a Torino Talladega is a fairly collectible car, although for some reason their values have not risen nearly as high as the Mopar "aero cars" - possibly the sheer outrageousness of the Charger Daytona and Superbird, with their huge rear wings, have eclipsed the far more subtle Torino Talladega.

	Ford Torino - Wikicars
		It replaced the Ford Fairlane, although that name was retained for the base models with trim different from those models which wore the Torino name.
		Some models of Torino were performance cars, because Ford chose the Torino as the base for its NASCAR entrants during the early years.
		The Torino GT and the Brougham trim model for that year were the only Torinos ever to have hidden headlights(standard on Brougham, optional on GT); the GT also had a fake scoop molded into the hood.

	Talladega
		Initially the motor was to go in to the Talladega but the marketing types changed that and the Boss 429 Mustang was born.
		Still Ford knew that to be competitive on the Super Speedways they needed a more aerodynamic car.
		This allowed Ford to lower the car more than a stock Torino for racing yet still be within Nascar regulations.

	Reed Johnston's 1969 Ford Talladega
		The specially built 1969 Ford Talladega was the result, and among the changes, the most obvious included the longer front fenders that extended the snout, and had an angled front that connected the now flush mounted grill opening back into the hood area, with special bracing to support the now “drooped” nose.
		Talladegas were given special “T” plates on the doors just above the handles, a “T” in a circle on the rear, and “Talladega” nameplates inside on the door panels.
		Ford didn’t skimp on the power for these cars, as they received the 428 cubic inch Cobra Jet with a 10.5:1 compression ratio rated at 335hp, backed by a C6 automatic transmission.

		It was supposed to replace the Ford Fairlane in the mid-size car line-up but the latter was still sold by Ford until 1971.
		Upon introduction, the Ford Torino was available in a number of body styles: two-door fastback hardtop, four-door sedan, four-door station wagon, and two-door convertible.
		The popularity of the Ford Torino began to decline in the 1970s as high emission controls and fuel economy standards took its toll on the car.

		Ford had its aero body styles in place (as well as Richard Petty) from practically the start of the '69 NASCAR season, which was critically important.
		Ford was the fastest qualifier at only three of the 1970 races on tracks over one mile in length, while the Chrysler cars started on the pole a commanding 15 times that season.
		Ford was a larger auto manufacturer than Chrysler, and one could reasonably assume that they had a larger NASCAR racing budget throughout much of the '60s.

		This release of the Torino Talladega is quite possibly the most important release of this slot car season for me. Not only is it a brand new model aimed directly for the NASCAR enthusiast, but it completes the Aero Warrior series that Carrera began with the Mopars.
		The Torino Talladega was such a strong competitor that it even lured "King" Richard to join Ford.
		The Ford Torino certainly took it's fair share of checkered flags, but one Torino driver in particular stood out among the rest and that was David Pearson.

	NASCAR.com - Talladega, 1969: A debut like no other - October 18, 2001
		Torino had been successful and Chrysler was ready to respond with the Dodge Charger Daytona and the Plymouth Superbird, a couple of strange-looking cars with long, pointy noses and a three-foot spoiler on the back.
		That the unknown Brickhouse won the event, his only Grand National career win, is probably due to the fact that all the top NASCAR drivers had refused to race and the field was filled by a lot of unknown and Grand American (now the Busch Series) drivers.
		Before that race week at Talladega, word had filtered out that the track was fast -- extremely fast -- but that it was rough on tires.

		Ford had done some pioneering work in the wind tunnel to reshape the nose of the Grand National Torino for better aerodynamics.
		The long and short-nosed Ford Torinos and Mercury Cyclones dominated the 1969 season, Chrysler responded mid-season with the long-nose and wing on the Plymouth Superbird and Dodge Charger Daytona.
		During the 1969 and 1970 seasons the Ford Torino Talladega and the nearly-identical Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II won the vast majority of the races.

		Ford built and sold about 740 street-going Talladegas, which met Nascars sales requirement for them to be used on the track.
		The "Big-T" featured an extended nose which used a Torino rear bumper which was narrowed and "v-ed" to fit the front end.
		In an effort to gain an aerodynamic advantage, the front fenders were extended and a header panel and flush mounted standard Fairlane grill were employed.

		J'ai donc craqué pour cette Torino #17, plus quelques autres (je compléterai le plateau des Nascar prochainement).
		Depuis j'ai acquis une Torino Starsky and Hutch de Scalex, et ma foi, il semblerait que cette Ford soit réellement longue :-)
		Pour la piste rien de rédhibitoire, d'ailleurs on se fait à ses défauts et cela devient presqu'un avantage dans le sens où elle est différente des habituelles Scalex ou Fly; conduire des voitures de carroseries et / ou d'époques différentes mais qui ont les mêmes comportements sur la piste, c'est un peu monotone, non ?
