Went to the Hidden Valley Drags last night and our local Ford dealership brought down a Focus RS & an XR5 shocking but the Focus ran a 14.7 and the XR5 ran a 16.2 although they both had slow reactions bout 0.07ish ! Interesting ! I ran my XR8 Ute last meet and best run was a 14.5 ! Ran my bike last night and got a PB of 10.8 !!

I ran a 13.9 and I know of a few who have hit 13.4 in an XR5...As Dallas has mentioned, they are not drag cars....once they are moving there's not a lot of 8's who aren't surprised by the fact that there's a focus sitting beside them. ;)

Although both are modded. This is from an RS against an XR5, modded times are hard to guage this was a 13.7 from a mate in his RS
