12 sec car

[T4Rick]

You'll need to swap to smaller wheels but very wide and then have some drag radials and then soft front suspension and jack the back up and set hard plus need a very grippy diff and seam weld the shell and full cage plus strip it out and 400 bhp plus traction control would help.
Before my mate stripped his fiesta to build the 600 brake focus he has now it pulled 12.4 on the quarter at ten of the best and that was running at 400 bhp not the 510 bhp on high boost but we had to raise the back and drop the front and adjust suspension to aid traction but it handled horrible at over 100 mph on the quarter and gearbox was built for the car to handle over 500 hp and it still went bang but guy rebuilt it free as he guarented it and it was built for top speed runs as we got it featured after doing 179.8 mph at brunters.

Interesting information that mate ive been watching the brunters videos on youtube

Just the way they are, tricky beasts to get of the line. Think duane lost more than that.

This is what you do, convert it to rwd and fit a 136bhp, 4cyl, 8v like what smithy has in his. lol

You'll see my mates black rs turbo fiesta and also he has got Ian Howells old focus rs replica but he has just got it back and it's 600 hp now but looks like a show car still got to go and see it as not seen him for a while. The fiesta used to be fun at brunters in a car that weighed 950 kg and pair of seats and cage complete stripped car doing 170 on old runway sounded like machine gun fire at the floor I'll remember it till I die as was so much fun even though I was holding the cage as couldn't fit in the belts as they were too tight and mate took off as soon as I sat in the seat and doing 175 as had the gps gear on setting it up for the runs we did for the mag and towed it with my old sierra xr4x4 that I had owned for 2 weeks and needed new exhaust when I got home.
