Yip. Not really a Focus either - spaceframe built for a carbon Focus WRC bodykit. Running a Cosworth YB with around 800bhp.

so not really a full trimmed up road car. the ethos of TOTB has long gone. used to be fully trimmed and road fuel when it started. suppose no one wants to see that anymore. they see 10 second cars as the norm and anything else is crap. if they only knew how much a 10 second car actually cost

That car is in the pro drag class with only two other cars. 4WD class is still full of the cars you're talking about.

First TOTB I have missed in the last few years aswell, but looking at the weather I am not fussed. You can't beat TOTB when it is a red hot day though. Fantastic.

Looks like Olly Clark won the overall and the MLR won the team.

Banny, very first run, not even driven the car at all, low boost of 1.3 bar, stupidly set of in 2nd gear, went to change to 2nd (thinking it was in 1st) and pulled the handbrake instead, realised what i had done, then changed to 3rd, then 4th, so a **** run. Data logs show i went to 60mph with a 2.1 60 foot, then slowed down to 26mph, then went through the quarter at 12.1 @ 132mph!

We then called it day!
