It's amazing that a car that looks like a Ford Focus has so much performance.

STI needs a new motor for sure, I hated my 16 STI. Barely drove it and sold it a year later. Should be decent with a good motor in it finally. Focus RS was a TON of fun to drive on the track though.

I bet the outside edge of the front tires will roast. Seen a bunch of pics, after track use, and the outer edge of the fronts get trashed. Lack of camber adjustment.....
