that's not true, you don't need $$ into the suspension or more power to have fun and learn. besides, no matter what we do to our cars we still get schooled by some old guy in an old stock car with way less power
ultimate proof that you don't need a nice car to autoX.. i ran my $300 beater.. a 1990 fox GL (2200lb) with a motor from a 'fox sport' (100hp), 4spd with stupid long gearing, no name brand dampers, no name brand all season tires, OEM compound brake pads.. i got a better raw time than a 2gen integra with Rcomps, a MX3 V6, and a lowered civic or two. and i suck.
a good driver in a stock focus can be really competitive in the stock class
