The dream of Soichiro Honda lives on

It’s worth noting that the car that set the time isn’t technically a production car. Honda used a development car that was virtually the same as the production car, besides the lack of a front seat, air conditioning and audio equipment. Additionally, Honda added a roll cage that was there for safety reasons and not to add rigidity.

That's impressive. I'm pretty sure they tuned the ECU map to get 305 HP. Street version untuned probably gets around 260HP.

I'M CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT TIME THE FOCUS RS PULLS OUT OF IT'S ASS.

Honda

Its not the production model and its not officially on the list because of that. It won't pull the same time with the production model.
