I was thinking more of the car that blows up if you rear end it.

How about the recall on the SVT Focus, where the throttle cable got stuck at WOT?

Ford Focuz does that potential...I know of a couple SCCA solo2 racers that have lowered their cars and crazy mad suspentionwith i/h/e and they keep up really damn good..

Another guy I know has a 50shot nx kit on his 2001 focuz...with i/h/e and runs 15.0 before he put the intake on...with intake he'll dip into the high 14's...

They are the civic's new comp if you want to call it that.....

A race between the Si and a Focuz stock for stock will be pretty damn close....focuz has torque and if it wasn't for honda vtec the focuz would smoke the Si...but pretty close and good race IMHO!!
