out of the fiesta ST and a corsa red top which would be the quicker?

both 150 bhp
corsa light and D.I.Y build and can just go roud corners
fiesta mite be a lil more over wieght then then corsa?? but is built for the 2ltr and could probly go round corners a bit better

I've raced many 'a ST in my VTS and eaten them to be fair. It's running 133bhp so I'd say Valver would kill it.

LET would murder it. A mate of mine owns a Civic Type R and works for Ford and drives ST's daily. He reckons the Focus ST is slower than his Standard Type R which I believe has 197bhp?

Iv just left ford, and to be fair the ST range is not as quick as there made out to be. Made to look fast but i never really liked them. Corsa valver would own a firsta st and a corsa let would pretty much destroy a focus. I know iv been there, had a play with a ST in my old corsa turbo with a missfire and beat it, raced one when running right and anhilated it...there pish
