Surprizing results from Thursday..

Well, I took the Focus to the track again, and I ended up being 2 for 4. I kept turning consistant 10.8's, which would have been lower, but I had 1/2 a tank of gas in the car, and last time I had 1/8 of a tank. So there. My first run was against a 94-95 Cobra, and well, you know the result. Second run was against a 88-93 GT Convert. I can only imagine that he fell asleep at the line, cause I whooped him by half a second. I ran a 10.9 and he ran a 11.46. I beat a 'Stang!!!
The next run was with a Ranger 4x4, so that wasn't any compitition. My last run was with a Supra TT. Umm.....just to be nice...it was his first time at the track, and he had no idea what he was doing. He almost hit me going to the waterbox, but we straightened him out. He ran a 9.0 to my 10.8. Not bad for a Stock Focus huh?
I miss the Cobra. Later.

I am really not trying to be an ****** or anything but damn near any car will run a mid 16. There is a bone stock 4 door Grand am
automatic that runs 16.20's in the quarter
here at the local track. Last friday there was a ragged out prelude running a 16.1 and that is in crappy air.

I can beat two or thre of the stangs here with my truck that runs 16.60's@84

yeah, but did anyone see this months (actually september's issue)5.0 ? there is an 850HP focus, or something close to that. running 8's. in the 1/4. that is sweet.looks cool too. huge wing on it.

I know it's a focus, and just about everybody can get a 16.xx, but come on, it's a Ford. Where's the loyalty?

I feel so unloved right now.

I love the Focus -- I don't care how unreliable they are or what anyone says. Hatchback economy cars rock!!

I have an '89 Tracer and an '89 Sundance -- they are both hatchbacks and I love 'em!!

In 4-8 years you will see 600hp street/strip Foci.
