@@curves.garage9600 Awesome! Have you done any other modifications non performance wise? like suspension, control arms, strut braces? Im surprised how well it went through those corners :)
Very good driving at the Ford's and your personal limit in the green hell but I think that my Mk1 2.0 Zetec Trend with only 131 hp is on par in straight forward acceleration what wonders me (~7.5 secs in mine till speedo reaches 100 km/h in 2nd gear). It's stock I have only replaced the air filter with a free flowing Simota one. But in the corners you are much faster.
I went 2002 2.0 ESP, to a 2004 ST170 and now own a 2003 RS. I’d say 1st gear acceleration in the 2.0 is faster than an ST170, purely due to the long ratio and DMF, but beyond that, they are miles apart in performance
Im in love with focus. Most reasonable car with such a good driving abilities. Your ride was amazing to watch. Am I wrong, or Your tires got noticeably worse traction after couple of minutes?
This is true… the eagle F1 are nice on the road but not for the track. And infortunatly there aren’t LSD on the st, and this don’t help to have the traction necessary… I hope installe one this year 🙂
My car is an ST so there is a 6h gear. And to answer to Jonny, when I need a past the 5th and 6th gear, like the other gear, but if I don’t need I didn’t
I have a regular 101hp 1.6 Focus MK1, I know it's not much of a powerhouse but I'd love to drive it ot the limit one day. Obviously not doing that on public roads, I am not that irresponsible. But the handling of that car is far better than any other car I've driven, and I got to drive 15 year younger cars from more "premium" brands that drive like absolute hogs.
Because if you need to make an emergency manuever, you'll be steering a horse wagon with no power advantage for inputs. Always be race ready on track or at speed. Nuetral isn't ever race ready.
Driving on the limit. Respect. You are using all the horses in the engine😄
I bought an st170 a couple of months back and I love it! Such a fun car. Great driving by the way 👍
Thanks, yes it's a good car and you can have fun with it without too much risk because the rear is quite well adjusted
Respect to you man😎 Very skilled driver, you really shown the capabilities of the mk1 focus chasis😎👍
Yeah, was really shocked, now some improvements to make it even better will arrived

Just KW V1 for the suspension, but the other things of the car are stock. I just remove the rear seat. So for now there Is just the suspension.
You drove like a boss. Respect!
Le pilotage le plus propre que J ai vus en vidéo 😮
Nice driving sir. I have 2 SVTS .They really are a drivers car.
100% a drivers car love my 2003 svt
@@DoomSlayerSVT love my 03 Svt
good driving buddy, nicely driven.
Thanks man !
Mais quel châssis? ! Bravo Ford comme dab. Super coup de voulant .. chapeau
Le châssis d'origine sauf des amortisseurs KW V1, bien moins dure que des KW V3. Sinon tout d'origine.
the SVT has the same chassis as the Ford GT
Vaya manera de conducir ese ST170😎👌
Health to your work Ford LOVE Focus LOVE ❤

Vraiment une super voiture très sous côté chez nous. Je vais passer le cap et m'en acheter une cette année 👍🔥
Ahah yes fonce, c'est pas bien plus cher qu'une focus lambda en plus...
Salut, je trouve que cette caisse a toujours été sous cotée. Le moteur est pourtant fiable non ?

Excellent driving...just suspension upgrade.?.goes to show how good the mk1 focus is...
Yes, only the suspension are upgrade.
terrible!!!! je m'offre justement un st170 quand je vois ce que tu en fais je comprend que c'est un bon jouet
Vídeo muito bom, pretendo comprar um Focus no futuro
Can I ask if the traction is switched off?mine comes in way earlier if its turned on
Is turned off, always
One other thing - I bet you can’t find a rebuild kit, remanufactured or suitable transmission to swap when that one breaks - Getrag MT-285!
Nice thing !! Thanks !!
I think you say that beacause I loose the gear speed several times, but I change the oil and since that I never loose the gear speed 😊
What’s been done to it handling wise ?
Propre la conduite
It's good car!
Yes really
Gut gefahren.
the gear switch knob isn’t stock 🙄😅
Yes this is true 😅
The gear switch knob is a Quaife.
Nice one 😎
Thanks !
Why you didnt shift in 5th and 6th gear on the straight?
This car doesnt have 6th gear. I have the same car 1.6 stock but st tunned version only for weekend and fun
@@dominikledinko ST170 has 6 SPEED MANUAL GEARBOX!

@@dominikledinko yep. You have a 1.6 but he has a ST
Sorprende como agarra en las curvas yo con mi tdci 😔

Top de mais
Top de chèvre
The gearbox the RS should have had
This is true…
Buona guida ma troppe curve affrontate inutilmente in seconda marcia col motore troppo su di giri e sotto coppia
E si e vero, in fatti ora le passo in terza trancuillamente
May need better semi slicks...
Yeah, is this video I don’t havé semi slick, but in the last video on the nurburgring, there are 4 AR1.
Incroyable la vidéo , sacré coup de volant !
at the end of this video you put the gearbox in Neutral and still rolling with over 100km/h. That's a big NO to do in any car!
Okay, but why ?
Because if you need to make an emergency manuever, you'll be steering a horse wagon with no power advantage for inputs. Always be race ready on track or at speed. Nuetral isn't ever race ready.
I hope you have good life insurance!
Yes, don’t worry 😅
