WTG Ryan. You were almost 4 seconds faster then Patrick's PTE Focus. Good Job.

^haha I dont know about crushing them all but we have already signed up for nats
![]() and yeah leo the other focus had a 2.3 with f2s modified racing head, H&R coilovers.. he said it put down 180hp "the SpecFocus Killer" I forget what tires he was running. I think we have a better overall setup though, and we have had more time to get the car really dialed in. 20 hp isnt so much its how you use it that countsalso he was having some electrical problems all weekend, his car died during saturdays warmup and they were about ready to call it a weekend

He was running the old SF tire. 205/40/17 RA1. The rears were converted to the F2 coilover setup. The car looked nice, but it needed a wash.

Leo,
The car was a 2.3L Duratec with a Mazda Block, F2 Head and a Coilover conversion, with RA-1 205/40x17. So, it's pretty much gone for SF. He ran it in PTE, but I don't know how it fell into PTE with the Engine Swap and the Mazda Block. He was having problems with tune on Saturday and reflashed back to a stock tune Sunday. It ran okay with the stock tune. But, like what Brad said it was his first race and we clocked him a good 10+ mph slower in turn 9 then Ryan was with the Radar Gun. So, I think he was having problems with handling as well. Ryan's car ran great. I think we have a good handle on the R888s now and the new springs helped a lot. There was a lot less roll in the car which helped Ryan a lot. But, like Ryan said... I think we have a better setup.

I believe NASA only runs the Main Course at Summit Point.
