We have some time to make up.

I've heard that the RS's rear clutch packs overheat on the track REALLY quickly. Then it just becomes a 2.3 swapped ST....

At the press release drive they just had in Spain that did happen a couple times while in drift mode, but the ford guys have said they have sensors in the rear diff that track the fluid. So like a lot of cars these days the computer will tell you when it needs to have the fluid changed or its overheating.

Side note....That drift mode IS the DUMBEST thing Ford could have developed. Its about as dumb as the mood lighting in the fiesta if not dumber.

My "turbo-senses" are tingling. They are telling me in the next 6 days the focus ST record will fall well into the 11's. My personal money is on 11.6-11.70, but whispers of 10's have been heard in the halls.

My "turbo-senses" are tingling and telling me the Fiesta is going to be low 11s in the next month or so...as long as the drivetrain holds.

For those who don't know drag racing, a 126mph trap means it can/will go faster than 11.58.

It was a good night at the track either way.
This Hurricon built by Jason Hefner went 8.9@165mph.https://vimeo.com/156849520

I had this guy tune my last truck, 06 LBZ Duramax, he told me he still drove to work in this truck and would get 17 MPG.

I believe he drives a newer model now.
