why should cars have tio pay money to enter aswell as quilify
and lets be honest, fords arnt the best cars at handling either
the money involved to redesign a ford to make it on par with a car thats had years of development and no expense out the factory
what chance ya really got
look when skylines first entered touring cars, they was a little bit quiker then and deffo are now!!!
sorry but its true

I agree in some respects about what your saying, ford havnt made a big performance model since the Escort Cossie, since then evos, skylines, scoobys and alsort have come out with trick runnin gear and management. So when you consider how each car stood out the box theoreticly fords havnt got a chance. Lets hope they make a real effort with the Focus. Case of what you wanna spend to make it go better.
But the other side with most things is the big factory builds will always win, or the mega rich people. Joe bloggs whos saved his last 10yrs wages on a stage 4 cossie with trick diffs hasnt a hope against the big wigs.
Kind of like when max power was cool before its now known chav days. I remember the days when it was some average guy who saved his wages and made his Corrado V6 go stupidly fast and look rather cool, then it got pogressively worse, and as its popularity grew the money came in and it was skylines with $100,000,000 budgets that spoiled it.
