It looks nice if you remove the numbers and letters.

The #'s and letters are on there for Auto crossing. I put them on because I just made them. They're magnetic...I don't drive around with them on... 65 is my # and HS is the class I am in..the N stands for novice.

What's the logo in the back vent window ?
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

i'd assume it's a duratec, seeing as it is a 2005 model, at least, i think it's a duratec

Since his name is "MyBlackST", I'll assume that it's an ST so it would have the 2.3L Duratec ;)

Exactly... it has the 2.3 with a 5 speed...As for Auto-x. Handles pretty well...I think with more seat time (I've only done one event), I can be pretty competitive in it... My fastest time was about 2 seconds off the leader in my class.

Upgrade those wheels and tires, then you'll be right on the leaders, but then you also might get bumped up in class. :(

In stock class u can use any tire u want, provided that its street legal. Also u can use any size wheel that could have came stock on your car. I auto x my zx3 and I bought smaller 15" wheels to mount my Yoko Advans A-032 race tires. With the smaller wheels/tires I lost some inertial mass, and I have a 4% improvement in gearing (due to diamter change). The tires made the biggest difference in my times. Anyways, a focus will hang with the leaders in ur class, and does quite well when the times are handicapped vs. all the other classes.

Heres my car at the races, click!

PS, i would have guess an ST would be G stock, is it really H? That would be a good advantage

Well it says that the 2.3 focus is in H-Stock...So I just go with it... I'm not going to argue to be in a higher class... :banger: Plus the ST badge is comming off Monday.
