Default A good run out in my focus today

Had a really nice run today in the focus, round Buxton and the surrounding areas, thought I'd share some pics, really fallen in love with this car tbh.

I know the mk2 FRS gets some stick from RS "purists" but they really are an awesome car imo, especially when they're modded.

Tbh my first choice would have been white but as I knew the car cos it belonged to a friend, great spec and low mileage, it ticked all the boxes for me, plus being my daily it doesn't stand out so much as the other colours which is good imo. It's a lovely colour as long as it's looked after

Guess it must be getting on for 400 odd bhp then? How do they handle the power at that level out of interest? Does it get it down ok without spinning the wheels too much?

I've got a dyno printout for 410bhp from WGT, how accurate it is I don't know but it should be around 400 with the bits it has I guess. It puts it down really well, obviously wheelspins in 1st if the traction control is off, and a bit in 2nd if you boot it from low revs but 3rd gear onwards is full traction tbh, the torque makes them so easy to drive though, just effortless
