Default best time at the track was 18.11...

in the 1320 with my ford focus auto
i almost could of pushed my heartless mustang down faster than that...haha.
just htought i would share my slow time, and wanted you all to check out this motor that was in a fox.
not sure on what it is just its a ford motor, with a nice procharger setup.
he ran 3 times to get his license and all 3 times he never stayed on it the whole time, kept getting clsoe to the wall. his best was a 9.29 i believe...heres a pic of the motor.

yeah the intercooler was in the car, took up the entire space under the dash on the passenger side.
and no the focus was far from consistent, i couldn't get a good light at all and my times ranged from the 18.11 to 19.03.
needless to say i got booted first round. haha

I believe the cut off time in points in the street class around here is 18.99 so with your 19 sec time they'd of booted you here for being to slow ftl!!!![:@]
