i was at Spa and then onto the ring 2 weeks ago. The car is lightening in a straight line but braking and turing in speed is awful. Brakes i can sort but the handling is awful. Car has been set up for track use. The car isnt planted, there is far too much roll. I have a 330d bmw which would have handled better ! Where do i go !!
i did exactly the same drive the other month 2 days Ring, 1 day Spa and the car was awesome average threw EauRouge 120mph with a slight wiggle.
This car The RS has been built for the twisty bits. I’ve never heard someone say the car doesn’t handle the bends weird. Only thing you’ve touched is the Geo maybe that’s the issue
Spicer, obviously your driving style is more suited to a soft nose heavy rolly polly bmw oiler, the Focus’s stiffer more responsive and possibly twitchier handling on the limit is probably not for you.
No nothing.
No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob.
No tackiness.
Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.
@spicer: Three weeks ago I was on the Anneau du Rhin. Only track setup I have different from stock is the DSC V1 controller which reduces roll, squat and dive. The behaviour in the bends was just brilliant. Alas, the Nissan GTR and the Porsche got me every time on the straight 😉
