And Ron, if you swing something online (for those of us who don't have cable/sat), I'll build a shrine to you in my garage.

Someone should convince SPEED to make the show available as a PODCAST on iTunes. Then they can just put national advertising on it let it go for free. Maybe a week or two after its available on Cable so it doesn't eat into Cable ratings....

NOTE: Remember people, you don't need an iPod at all to watch a PODCAST. Honestly it'll probably also be higher quality than what you can see on Cable anyway.

**focaljet-1** · 10-10-2007, 11:55 PM

I've made an inquiry about if the show will be available elsewhere, or if we can host it. I haven't heard back yet, but I'll keep trying.

does that mean that you can bore/stroke it to a 2.3???

Or is there fine print that doesn't allow that either? Come on Rachel...leak some info!!!!

I miss being able to sneak peaks by bringing my Focus up there to FS. Like when the SEMA Fusion was being built.

Yea, but then I'll feel all dirty download a 'podcast'...

**FocusSportTECH** · 10-11-2007, 11:23 AM

The rules of the competition state that the engine that came with the car must be the engine used for the event. It wouldn't be legit if it was swaped for a 2.3 as the new cars dont come with that engine.

**OmniFocus** · 10-11-2007, 11:46 AM

That's alright, you can just rev it higher.... but I don't need to tell YOU that.

**focuspl99** · 10-11-2007, 01:31 PM

i dont think anyone would be embarassed if they made 300whp with the new focus..........

we all know thats possible w/o a 2.3 swap lol

**imprtslyr0223** · 10-11-2007, 01:41 PM

i'm not really down with the lights. plus there's never going to be aftermarket headlights that are a complete redesign, let me try to work something up.

I agree, thats why its one of my major gripes with the 08. That no simple body kit is going to help it.

**imprtslyr0223** · 10-11-2007, 05:41 PM

well i mean i kind of like the stock headlights or the gap under the grill. but the modded headlights above look like the headlights off a dodge caliber or something

Hey...don't knock on the only half-decent thing on the entire Caliber.

**j20000** · 10-11-2007, 08:00 PM

That looks a MILLION times better.

Sorry I had to, its too similar with the single bar through the grill and all. The stock lights look better IMO.
