So I'm wondering how is that possible? My car has more horsepower and Torque STOCK...and it won't pull mid 15's. Can any of you genius CEG members break that down for me?????






I'm going out on a limb here but you ever think the Focus might weighs less than your car




driver is also a fator....maybe he drives better than you??






Umm...not I'm pretty sure he can't beat me even If I don't have an SVT...I have a 3L swap so..I'm pretty sure he's no where near where I am ...plus he just learned to drive and this is the car that his parents bought him. No doubt he's a good driver but that really doesn't matter.

I wasn't really trying to compare his car to mine..I was comparing the Focus to the Contour.

EDIT: I just noticed the post above mine...Your Focus beats your SVT???? wow. Thats a crucial 500LB's huh. Maybe I misunderstood the importance of weight in racing...

~darp~



I was jsut poking fun....no harm at all...but weight and driver do play a big roll in racing.
