2017 One Lap of America: Fiesta ST wins Economy Class!

[mister2dood]

Hey all,
My friend and I took my 2015 Fiesta ST on the One Lap of America this year. It was a great adventure, and we even managed to beat the (1 other ) Econo car. I thought a few people on here might be interested in reading about it and checking out some of the videos: http://onelapfiesta.blogspot.com/2017/05/may-5-registration-day.html

There were two Focus RSs on the One Lap this year as well - the stock RS finished 20th overall and won the Mid-Priced Sedan class!

Enjoy!

Congrats. How did you hook up your trailer? I have been considering entering my FIST for next year. Did you use up any consumables?

Nightcrew13, ha, not next year, gotta save our pennies for a while!

OEFvet11, I used the Curt hitch - link below:

As far as consumables, my co-driver and I split a set of tires and brake pads as well as the entry fee and travel expenses. I flipped the tires after the event, and I'll be able to get the rest of the summer out of them, including a track day. The brakes should be good for another 10k+ miles, or a couple more track days.

You will have a blast - do it!

That was one of the best things I've read in awhile. I am now really interested in this event. Thank you for sharing that experience.
