You could do that, but that is a very wild guess because there is a zetec in that car. See the pics??? Granted it is slightly bigger and a lot stronger than our blocks, it's mainly that HUGE turbo giving all that power and the CF body helping with weight.

I think the driver of that Focus now drives the fast drag car SRT4.

It ran 10's not 9's. Its fastest run at an offical drag racing event was srounf a 10.9 or 11.0. In testing they ran 10.8's. At the time the only faster Honda drag car in their class ran alcohol fuel, not gasoline like the Esslinger car and the other cars in its class.
