prob a bit lighter than lcr, similar ish to mine, i would expect to stay with a std model, based on results from other cars, beat a boxster, stayed with an s2000 all the way and was even gaining on it in lower gears

Focus RS hebbu hubba
I raced a T-5 today was all good..
on another note steve been in touch with RS tuning through VAGweb and they said they will remap my car for 35+bhp for £345 as opposed to dasteks £550
so hopefully in near future a drive to leeds will be on the cards

third gear is a monster in a RS as torque and power are limited in 1st and 2nd gear for traction
