Good story.

Dan
why not??

It might be rare, esp in the US but its certainly possible.

Ever heard of the Focus RS?

admittidly it isn't any sort of threat stock, but the engine is boost friendly and 300-400bhp should be possible.

Then there is of course this:


These are pretty nippy.

Man you guys have taken this waaaaaay too far. It was a joke. I thought I made this obvious with the 500hp shot of nitrous but apparently it did not. In the first post I said man if he only knew I had something that would take him, meaning that the Focus itself could not EVER take a C5. Now before I get flamed I mean my chicks bone stock Focus, not some bad ***....uh.... whatever the **** they do with them. IT IS A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!! And to those who understood that thank you for being somewhat competent.

Oh yea your mom!!!
No im just kidding, but seriously everyone took this way over what it was meant to be. All it was supposed to be was a story about how I launched on a guy in a C5 with my chicks Focus and he got all pissed and talked ****, not knowing that I am not some dumbass who actually thought I would win.

What kind of 60' did you pull on that 12.6 run? You've got roughly the same setup I do (bigger stall, but that's about it), and while I havn't taken it to the track yet since I got it back, I'll be very suprised if I even break into the 12s.

That's what I've been saying for a while...

Just so you know, i thought it was funny...You pulled the typical ricer move. It's always trucks that pull this on me though.

If I were you, I would have been laughing my *** off at the guy.

ah yes...i was just reminiscing over all the vettes i smoked in my stock saturn...it was kinda fun cruising a couple car lengths ahead of them at 100+ and thinking i was winning a race...but then i was usually high.

put the shoe on a different foot after i bought a z28 (probably stock, bought it used) and started smoking rice burners for real...granted, i'm sure i never got the chance to race a fully tricked out 4 banger, but i did put down some "works in progress"...

one guy caught me when i was going about 90 and thought he'd fly on past, then i decided to play...

then i wrecked my z28 on the way to work and got a blazer...no more speeding for me.

oh well...not saying i added anything useful here...just put in a couple cents.

I am just amazed that some people ACTUALLY though this thread was real...like the joke may not have been funny, but its hilarious that some people really thought he was serious...

Why on earth is this thread this long? I think you guys have been inhaling too many exhaust fumes. You're supposed to turn the car off when it is in the garage with the door closed.
