Supercharged Ford Focus Wagon
Who needs a Focust ST when you can have the same wheelspinning torque with less weight, more brakes, more diff, and of course, the wagon stylee that all the ladies love? This wagon has been to almost all of the road race tracks in the Midwest, either as a tow vehicle or as the track vehicle. Sold now (see part 2), but it did everything you could ask pretty well, except for the characteristic FWD wheelspin on corner exit...
