Yeh he was with us for a good 2 hours, initially on the motorway and then towards the end on that awesome back route... we did lose him a few times on the back route you're right :hahaha:

The article is out boys and it's quite a good read :thumbs:70% about the trip down there.

Speaking about me:

At one point, one of the CSLs drops out of convoy and we line up for a rolling 4th gear drag race. The is brutal 5-pot turbo power versus finely honed, naturally aspirated straight-six, and as we floor the throttle both cars respond in very different ways. The E46 CSL has one of the most distinctive induction notes on the road, a crackling roar that rise into a thoroughbred motorsport-inspired wail, but the Focus can shout pretty loudly as well, and its thumping, off-beat five cylinder warble is equally as enthralling. With both cars producing roughly the same amount of power on paper it's understandably a close run thing, but with the added torque of its turbocharger, the Focus slowly but surely noses ahead. You can argue the toss between which is the better car until the cows come home but as far as raw power and speed is concerned, there really was nothing in it.

I won't mention that 5 of my cylinders were joined together due to the headgasket problems and it really was running like a pig :hahaha:;)

Performance Ford mate - the story of the MP350 Focus RS at the ring, including an EPIC convoy down with a bunch of CSLs....

Gay boy and DUVAY (Matt) got some publishing space along with the Z4M :thumbs:

They also mentioned TMAQ's little chat in the carpark re CUPS, my little tear up and also my mate signing up for the MP350 upgrade for his Focus RS! :hahaha:

That made some good reading and I'm well chuffed, the boys done us proud! It's getting scary how close hot hatches are getting to the likes of our cars, was a good article nonetheless though. Loved the writers description of our induction roar, makes the hairs of the back of my neck stand up and I only left home 5 days ago, :'(
