Green focus engine is at harvey getting a rebuild after the wrong gear was chosen Never mind ,
Carbon focus is going good guns & there was nice pics & a vid of it drifting at ford fair
Andrew has been rallying a subaru of late think he is quite happy plodding along & working hard.

Time attack
Who wants to see the AG MotoRSport Ford Focus at round two of time attack at croft?????
Glen that runs Time Attack says my car just isn't in the spirit of Time Attack!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF does that mean.
(time attack has some of the heaviest modified cars in the uk)
The regulation that they reckon keeps me out is.
5.5 Chassis must remain as OEM unless approved by the Organisers. Strengthening of suspension mounting points is allowed.
So if the Organisers approved it it would be fine.... This is a very unfair reg. As all these regulations are worded so they can be bent to suit someone, but clearly not us.
Our question is, who doesn't want the focus there, Is it the big race teams, are they scared of getting beat from a car built in a small garage in Hurlford. Would be interesting to hear there view on this, as i'm pretty sure its the Organisers that don't like the idea of us coming down to England for a shot at the title.....
We wouldn't even be bothered about points as we have no intention in doing the season, just want out to play in pro class at a couple of rounds..
If the gobstopper 2 is 1000bhp at 1000kg like the rumours state then there should be no threat in us winning.

Id love to see this car race in something like time attack but if it was ever allowed it would always be in a seperate class as said,maybe a special saloons class or space frame class?

If in Doubt Flat Out...
Can't they just make a 'super special class' for Time Attack that this can run in and then give the opportunity for other teams and businesses to design and build cars that can run in the class.

Would love to see the Focus on track at Time Attack, it draws the crowds where ever it goes and will be good comp against the likes of the gobstopper.
What i dont understand is how can the AG focus not be allowed but the Infinity Focus of David Jackson is, both run pretty much the same running gear - similar power etc

The chassis on the ag focus isnt a std saloon car chassis and because of that is far superior to any old cosworth powered saloon car..it simply wouldnt be fair and if they was to let that out then they would have to allow special saloons too and thats a full space frame set up which are of course worlds ahead of the saloon cars chassis..

One would argue that you cannt run a wrc escort due to the modified rear turret pick up points but I'd bet my last pound they would allow it..
