I don;t understand all the hype surrounding the focus RS. yeah sure it's not bad speed wise but it's ugly as sin, got a crap interior and suffers badly from crap overboosting. clio cups, CTR etc etc are just as quick. heck even andy's GT was just as fast

theres one in my town and hes a young lad so hes allways up for some fun , we gently went out to an open road and i wated for him to boot it (was behind him) and i was still waiting for him to boot it and then i realised he was so i just nicley notiched it down into third bout 4K revs wated till second turbo come in at 5k wooooooosh bye bye there fast but there nothing special , recon there just s wee bit faster than escort rs (focus ways lot more so power to weight ratio)
any ways he was pish to bea so i think corsa valver would be a good match.
mate in his CTR beats him and he doesnt like that

Thats site bull, half the times on there are wrong
