The Focus is very cool for a one off. Very quick, but it definately drives like a one off. The wider tires make it a bit twitchy. Overall it was a lot of fun. But hit 2nd hard and the torque steer tries to take over. as to the wax, Mark and I noticed that dirt just would not stick to it no matter what!
It's all about balance.

I hear it's a special wax from Autozone. Just go to the counter and ask for wax for a 99 Focus with the "big" engine
