Default Silly question

what will handle better my suspension loaded, WS6 or a stock-slightly modded Ford Focus? my Mods are, 1.5 lowering Kit, Subframe connectors, Hotchkis STB, BMR PHR, BMR LCA's, 12 bolt (3:73) 224/227 split cam, LT headers, ZR1's w/285 front, 315 back, Pirellies. it's a silly question but I'm just curious if the situation arises, what would handle better?

What would the situation be? Just all out cornering G? Get a g-tech and measure.

Or in an Autocross situation? Did a Focus beat or is he claming to?

What are the mods of the focus?

Just in a road course, some guy claiming, his claim was FBodies handle so bad, it would be easy in a stock/modded Focus.

I would pick your car over a focus, but I would have to add some thicker anti-roll bars to your suspension first. I have Koni adjustables with Eibach prokit and RkSport Anti Roll Bars, but not your power, and I could easily out handle a Focus!!!
