This car is a great car to build a foundation for road racing, start small and work your way up.

My home is in San Diego and coming down for the weekends is like a godsend lol. But even at a 105 there in temecula I'm sure your feeling it too!I’m in the Temecula area and it hit 105 for a bit. I can only imagine in 29 palms! Like relaxing on the sun!

I'd swap the shifter for him, the bushings might be the weak link.He’s at camp lejeune which may be getting a hurricane on Thursday. Lol.
He left today via airplane and I’m keeping the FiST here until he come home on leave later in the month.
One question so far...is first gear a little vibey compared to the other gears?
Car is insanely fun to drive. Lots of bang for buck.
Are we talking about a svt focus?Not really comparable. The SVT was way underpowered and shifted like a wet noodle. Its prob because they are twenty years apart. The SVT should have been turbo.

In stock its wasnt the greatest but with bolts ond and some lowering springs that little car was pretty sweet for its time.
The path to the dark side is easy (and cheap).ladies and gents, we now have stage 1 cobb installed! lol...crazy how easy these cars are to work on! the extra power and especially tq was really noticeable...

There are only two downsides to the car (at least for me).
First, the unavailability of some options like back-up camera, driver assist, etc. I know such things violate the spirit of the road racing theme, but for us heavy commuters, they would have been awesome.
Secondly . . . its the image. They aren't exactly the car you want when you show up for a first date, LOL. Most people don't realize they are anything more then a small, egg shaped epitome of emasculation
