Hi, did not want to Hijack the other thread too much longer so thought I would start this.

First off, some of you know me, some may not. If you simply want to be an *** hat and flame away, feel free to do so. It is more than welcomed here


I know, I just can't put down the stir stick


In the other thread there was much Whining about how slow a Focus is, well, take a look at this puppy...under the stock hood to boot!!!!

Isnt there one called the RS8 also?

I like the civette better

 

that vid is way old. i still haven't seen anybody else do it. i like the crx one better.

 

no body else does it cause the car is butt ugly. i hate the rear end of those focus'

 

Must be because you are always behind them



Ken

 

This should get good.

 

So that Focus is nice.

How exactly does it make the other focuses stop sucking?

 

I hope you are either on crack or just kidding...

and you gotta be bored with lots of money to waste it on a conversion like this...

 

Looks like a fun toy...


I am neither on crack or kidding.


Lets say this, we go down the 1320 and you beat me 3 seconds....then we go to the road course and I beat you by 3 minutes...


I know I know, but F-bods are still ugly

I don't rag on the Foci.
They do quite well in the WRC, probably the toughest series on the planet.
They were actually the manufacturer champions last year in that series!!

I just wish Ford would build/bring over one with a forged/built bottom end, high boost, and an XTRAC AWD system so we could have a domestic nameplate challenger to the Nippon 'rallycars' (Evo, STI) competition!!

But I WILL rag on "Bluebloods" who defend/worship any/all import nameplates over other domestic nameplated rides.
Just as I will rag on LSx/GM/f&y body owners who do the same.

BTW; I would take a Focus SVT any/everyday over a 'duh, or any other equivalent class import nameplate as a dailydriver/economobile.

someone must not be getting enough attention lately........

 

Well said, and I enjoyed driving the old LT1 95 Impala SS.....

PENGUIN KILLER

 

What does that Focus run in the 1/4?

 

i believe it was like low 16s. once again i feel the need to ask this question. if you are going to post anti-GM stuff in your sig why would you post on a gm-bias website? im sure ur all over the svt sites.

 

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)

 

couple little suspension tweaks and the fbody will spank the focus. FWD blows ***
