ahem #3 would be wrong, I have read in many places that the design of the hatchback causes more drag than most designs and I got this off FJ to show you, I can come up with more

"C/D
Hatch = 0.36
Sedan = 0.31
Wagon = 0.30"

Let me break this down for you. Ill make it simple. I said what I said because thats what I have experience racing other focus. Not because of some bs I read in a magazine. I ran a svt focus both in my old car and new one. In the old one we raced from a dig. I had an cold air intake 4 into 1 headers and exhaust. stock cat cause I just got it back after I messed up the old one. He had a cold air intake and T/B. Anyway it was neck and neck the hole race. we raced just short of a 1/4 mile. But top end he had me hands down. As for racing one with my new car. I ran one on the freeway and I had him by about a foot or two. not much but I was ahead. That was when I was stock. dont know what he had. Saying your going to beat my because you have 20 more hp and 6 gears is dum. Its more than that. It comes down to alot of things. I ran a rsx type s. that says it has 200 hp and a 6 speed, and they cat run with my car or and svt. It comes down to mods, type of road,what shape the road is in. And most of all it comes down to driver experience and skill. The only thing that I have seen that would help take the win time and time again is torque and larger displacement. And I do have you on both, if you want to state facts. And as for racing me ill be waiting. All you have to do is find me.

oh yeah as for racing an auto.I have ran john in his auto with intake ,Throttle Body ,spark plugs, spark plug wires,4 into 2 into 1 headers with no cat,full exhaust,chip stage 4 cams. The funny thing is he was faster when it was an auto. Because the transmission made the rpms stay in that sweet spot where he got the most power from the cams. so even if I got him off the line he would pull when he hit that spot in the rpms. after he past it or before he hit it. our cars where the same. Then we he put in the 5 speed. he got slower, but im shure its because at the time he was not that good at driving a 5 speed.
