Not sure yet...I plan take it down the 1/4 soon, but I have also modded the COBRA and the L since then and to be honest, they will be the first down the track.
I expect the L to be mid 12's as I just added the 6lb lower kit and CAI. It is getting dynoed on Thursday the 26th, will post those numbers as well if anyone is interested. This will be on the Mustang Dyno up at Evolution Perf.
Jon Lund has done well with the COBRA and the mail tune, should even be better on the Dyno.
The FOCI is getting dynoed on Saturday, I will post the MASSIVE numbers for all to laugh at
Put more into the suspension and brakes on the focus getting ready for the next track day.
I am currently running a mail tune that has been working very well, but with future track events coming soon I am going on the Dyno to dial it in for sure.

So basically the only good from a Focus is when you take it to a road course...forget the 1/4 mile and the street...yep sounds like a waste of money. You could argue that it would wipe the street with me on a curvy street...but anybody dumb enough to pull crap like that on public roads is more than welcome, i'm not going to. So yeah, Focus sucks haha.
Nice little debate! But i guess it depends on what you like more, going fast or being able to turn well. (i chose going fast in a straight line)

What do you mean forget the street, we have some very nice and fun roads in the mountains.....and yes, I have driven my fair share of LS Fbods as well...

What i mean is that i would never go flying around bends on roads where oncoming traffic is a possibility Going straight is the only thing i would do on the streets, cause i can see what's in front of me. I won't have to worry about ramming into a car with a family inside.

What did your post have to do with street racing or kill stories? Nothing? Ok so I thought......

First off, glad to see you back, Ken. Haven't seen you in a while. Always good to see a little pot stirring.
That said, I just wanted to say that I don't care how fast or how shiny or how well it handles, I hate the Ford Focus more than any other car in the world and would gladly burn any to the ground given the opportunity to do so, speaking from personal experiences, of course. Ford can take that piece and shove it as high up there as possible.

The Focus is an Ugly POS. Its slow too. Plus its a Ford. Three strikes your out. The Euro RS version is kind of OK though. Ken quit trying to stir the pot so hard it spills.

I see things have not changed much around here. Been too busy at work to stir much over the past few months, but apparently still have it
You guys need to chill out and have some fun, and quit being so **** and chebby loyal that you can't have fun.
Thanks for the welcome back,
Ken
