I bet the new wheels save a huge amount of weight over the 18X10" comps?

I think Andy's real love is Rallying, so when he can do that again circuit racing will be dumped.

Yes mate he would ideally like to put a cover over the focus & leave it in a corner.We spoke about it the other day i think he would miss the track stuff as well esp because charlie will still be doing some of the track days ect. Its all down to money tho there is no way you could run that focus plus a grpA rally car at the same time.

No, I dread to think of the financial commitment that would require!

Charlie shaw has first refusal on the focus he has andrews first mk2 focus but dont think it will be sold its got to be the best ford track car built i cant think of another track car on the scene like it. There are a good few cars like martins escort ect but the focus is so well built & thought out plus proven to be u untill now unbeatable
