hhr ss vs. ford focus st

Ford took off like a bat out of hell, but by the end of second gear my untuned hhr ss with minor bolt ons was walking away from the focus. They're quick off the line, but nothing special after second gear.

Nice I was wondering how our rides would do against a ST. Been reading a lot about the ST in my auto mags. It's pretty impressive. But I'm glad we can take em out. I havnt seen a ST on the road yet here in SoCal. Good kill bro

If your stock, or mostly stock, it might have also been the driver.....

the ST throws down an impressive 5.9-second 0-60 mph run. It gets through the quarter mile in 14.6 seconds at 95.9 mph but takes a total of 15.9 seconds to reach 100 mph.

I have to agree. If I were to spend my money on a ford it would be a ST. First ford I've seen that actually impressed me.

What ever you do take your shoes off before entering a Canadian's house (igloo), must be all the snow and ice they don't want tracked in....
