Well this time I pulled the ABS/Trac fuse out...and believe it or not I ran that on my Kuhmo Snows...yes I've run my best time on snow tires up front and the Toyo Proxies on the rear...I also removed everything from the trunk...spare tire and I opened my air box so the K&N could breathe better...I had 0 wheel hop as the tires spun through first into 2nd and cut a 2.1 60ft time...best ever in the Focus.

Yeah I think my best 60' time was 2.6, shave half a second off that and I am easily into the 14's with mid to high 90mph trap speeds.

Not without some tranny work first. I plan to upgrade all tranny parts to the current MTX75 standard and add a Torsen before I go racing again. The wheel hop scares me. All I can picture is hop, hop, crack!

Hey I was running low 13's with harsh wheel hop and I never broke anything.......well not at the track anyways.  Must have just been lucky, that was with stock axles. But that car has since been driven into a wall so I am slowly building my 98 back into what my 95 was. Only at the mid 15 mark right now.
