Camaro v6 Vs....FORD FOCUS



Went to the track a week or so ago. First run i did a 14.5 against a 12 second IROC....second run i did a 14.7 against a ford focus. Need to post time slips for proof? He was an older man taking his daily driver, looked like he was having fun. He ran a 16.9

I had a ZX3 a few years ago and it was the slowest car I had ever driven (even in a manual trim). I cant believe people try and "rice" them out to be fast... Looks wise, I don't mind them, hell I bought one... It was a great commuter car until I had a baby and needed a bit more room.

Because its bracket racing.....

The most winning bracket racer at my local track races a 17 second 4 cylinder auto Tacoma pick up.

Never been to a drag strip I take it? It's called bracket racing. You race the clock not the guy in the other lane. Or it could have been at a test and tune session.
