Try the same thing at the Nurburgring (1000-2000 feet above sea level) and those cars probably would have destroyed it.

I said Focus RS 500, pretty much THE best handling fwd car ever, and I think the future 400hp+ SVT version or modded SHO could hold its own on the ring, due to its huge and flat torque curve.

I do wish Ford did Ring testing like GM does since the Ring is the track in which all modern day performance cars are tested and ranked. The only domestic track that offers that many documented times is Laguna Secca, which was the track Ford used to develop the Boss and should be hard to beat in a factory car under $50k
