check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=farEpZnOoOo
dont think it gets under 30 but you get the idea of how quick it gets to 120 +
Speeds are true GPS speed - not speeds on actual clocks (they show about 140 when its doing 130 gps)

seems ok, not massively fast.
not sure whether my focus did it quicker, but it certainly feels a lot quicker than when you watch a video afterwards.

Yea it's not too bad, the road is really bumpy and there is a slight bend (which doesn't help)...
Seems quick enough for a 2ltr N/A though only running 200bhp at the mo... will be running 240-250 when mapped and parts fitted which will make it pull a lot more mid-range!!!
Haven't ever had a chance of racing Focus ST although I do want to, on paper the acceleration figures are the same!!!

,
In all fairness mines a slightly tweaked hot hatch compared to your track slag
I went out in my mates R32 skyline a couple of weeks back 531bhp in a stripped skyline.... engine was sooo smooth it sounds like a motorbike on tick over it is truly epic

Doesn't look all that quick on YouTube.
Although maybe when your in the hot seat it feels quicker
You mapping on super? Should get a little bit extra then

14 seconds to 100 is not a bad speed at all, looks much faster than a standard type R
