Its a 2001 ZX3 Rally Car that I spent almost two years building.

We ran Rally New York and got 2nd in class, 10th overall. Definitely need to upgrade the suspension before the next event. Right now its factory, and im still running street tires and stock engine. Dont really need upgrades to win, just want a little more safety because we were bouncing all over the place, it was "fun" haha.

ooh, nice! how to hang it out there. (how to REALLY hang it out at the pic by stop sign!) Have run RNY several times, tho not for a while since our team has been concentrating on the R-A Eastern series. check out our site, http://www.lastditchracing.net
Yeah, time to really upgrade before you tackle the gravel stages. I can put you in touch with some rally guys that run Foci, they can hook you up with good bits.
#1 need besides gravel tires and gravel spec susp is...a limited slip. One wheel drive may be ok for tarmac but it sux big time on dirt or snow! Quaife or Ford Motorsports for the 5-spd box, tw/6-spd Getrag your only real option is Quaife. Most Focus rally crews I know are not running SVTs, they prefer the Zetec motor & 5-spd for better torque.
