Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Is anyone watching this? It's kind of interesting...It's cool to see the focus get some more public attention as more of a tuner car...I really think it should have been a regular lancer though instead of an evo...

Yea I saw a few episodes... but I gotta say, the FocusSport guys don't really sound all that knowledgeable compared to the other teams.

I have seen a little bit of it, It's kind of discouraging really.

How fair is it to put the focus up against an EVO? even the Mini against the EVO seems wrong to me.

Who picks the cars for this series?

I'd love to see the Focus do well and I would bet it can beat the Mini but I don't see how it stands a chance against an EVO.

Its not about beating each other, its about how much performance over stock they can get out of the car.

I didn't realize they did who got the most performance out of the car I thought it was a time attack or something..That's cool i guess. They are really notorious for making bad match ups, one season they had like a jetta a cobalt and an r32 skyline...haha
