Default My ST3

As some of you know I decieded to sell my classic last year to help fund my new car,the new car of choice was a 2006 Focus ST3 in colarado red.Once I had seen it I wanted it, so done the deal sold the scoob to scruff(dodgey lights btw ).

Now in standard form its a quick car lots of low down power,not as quick as the scoob but fun and quick in a different way.Now after 3 months and christmas bonus i have bought a dream science stratagem handset that flashes the ecu. Flashed it onto Race+ (one of the 5 tunes available) and wow feels like a new car goes like a rocket!.

And here she is

I gave one of these a good spanking around the outskirts of crawley, a black one, he gave up once he realised he couldnt loose me through the bends, overtook him on the Pease Pottage roundabout and that was it, game over, but its only as good as the driver behind the wheel.
