mate works for ford and got a brand new one today and is gonna come up pod for the saturday night thing, i have just spent over 300 quid just so i can make sure i beat him lol.
Standard for standard the GT should just pip it to the post.
At a RWYB day a few months back there was a group of them all doing mid 16's.
A standard GT on standard wheels etc should do high 15's.

iv raced at st from work and they are shiiiiiiiit! My punto ripped it apart they are bollocks! if ford is want you want think focus st mmmmmmm
abit like the fezzy zetec S then, a bag of bollox.
there not bad for the category they were in the competition like the VTR the S handles the nuts too. But they could have done wit hmore power tbh.Originally Posted by Superman
imo the ST has no market place a 2.0 making only 150bhp where alll its competitors are producing 170bhp+ ford always fuk hot hatches up. What ever happened to 1.6 turbo engines.

Theres a Fiesta ST with a turbo conversion around Newcastle, ive raced it a couple of times and its very quick but cant put the power down too good!
The Fiesta ST is a very capable hatch, and great fun and decent handaling, even on 17s.
It's not got the out pace of say a 182 or CTR, it's aimed below that market though, the price shows that.
To say it's **** is just very narrow minded, for the money you can pick them up for, even new from a dealer represents great value.
Not a clue on it's 1/4 miles times, but I wouldn't imagine it being a rocket down the strip.
An ST versus GT on track would be much more interesting.
Are you serious?Originally Posted by xploitGT
Yer the ST isn't a hot hatch, more a warm one by todays standards.
But what about the Fezza RS, the Focus RS, the new Focus ST?
Can't exactly say they're fuk ups can you!?

i mean since the rst they ahve not made a good hatch. the focus is not exactly a hatch is it.Originally Posted by sh33n
the fiesta st is so underpowered it could have done with more. If its not a hot hatch then what is it exactly. What is a warm hatch and if it is a so called warm hatch what is its competition. for the money id by a 2nd hand 182 and get my moenys worth.
