<< You must really know how to drive. I raced one in my old 2k1 EX 5spd and just barely beat him. >>
interesting...or the guy in the focus is a tard and dropped near fuel cutoff. dropping the clutch at 4000 rpm = tremendous wheelspin.
as a side note: most new ford cars suck, but i destroyed honda kiddies in my 5.0 gt

Rep Power: 0 Thats ok, cause after about 20,000 miles hondas are still running strong where the 5.0 will need a major tune up if its been racing at all. But Im not trying to start the war, cause we know what site we're on and I dont think it would be pretty. [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Good Kill, but if he wants a rematch on a roadcourse run away as fast as you can.
BTW the Focus sucks at drag racing because it's got tall *** gears (yet somehow it still gets crappy mileage)

Rep Power: 0 Thanks guys, actually it didnt spin a whole lot when i dropped it at 4000, cause i didnt floor it until the rpms started to drop and the wheels were close to stop spinning. i think i am going to get an intake with the 200 dollars.
