I've had a go at one. Wasn't fair really as i made it look stupid. I stopped at shop 5 miles up road and the driver pulled up and reckons I was lucky. When asked why he said i caught him off guard. Off guard my arse, he was ragging it and didn't like it coz i pulled round him with ease and cleared off.

This one was constantly up my arse every day on my way home from work trying to egg me on.

I had enough and took him up the M66.

Dont think he'll be harassin me anymore.

The one i raced was sitting up the arse of a car in front and when it turned off proceeded to rag it for a couple of miles with me sitting close behind. Got to a straight stretch of road i know which is approx 1/2 mile long with a sharp corner to start it. Banged it in 3rd before corner flew round could see way was clear and plain drove round him and cleared off with a little flash of the hazards lol. Not normally my style but it had to be done.

His face was a picture to say the least, He was on his own and i was 2 up.

drive them quiet often with work so can say first hand they're crap. really short 1st and 2nd gears and then it just loses it's guts. i've even demolished one in the turbo, which is running about 6psi whilst the engine beds in

I'm not really defending the Fiesta ST, BUT....... I had one for a while through work and I have to say it was pretty good. I had a lot of fun in. The ST did lack power after about 90mph, It did eventually get to 133mph. (private track obviously)

The valvers I have had were quicker due to the 'weight' issue. But there is no doubt I was quicker down lanes and twisty bits in the ST. Reason behind that was the ST was brand new and my valver was 10 years old. The valver is a sloppy mess compared to any new motor, unless I had spent a fortune replacing the whole setup, which I never did!!

:lol: Thats the problem with them....you start off taking it easy and as time goes on you take more and more chances, like playing with the 'mid corner lift off' and BANG its going home time!!
