Re: Focus ST
I raced both those from a stop but no boost launch. I'm still not comfortable yet with that.

My truck is stockish I put a thread in the engine section of what I have but I don't think my truck is running very well. I need a scantool and a new tune. The lightning had intake, exhaust, pulley change and meth injection, but he says he didn't use the meth.
If you haven't had your truck long, I would recommend doing the "tune up" items. These items will help and could bring back anything lost with old or worn out ignition components. The best thing you can do, is get a scan tool like data master/scan master. Best thing I did on my stock trucks. You will learn a lot about them and what they like and do not like. First "mod" you should do.
It didn't appear that you were building boost before the launch or even the Lightning power braking. Especially with the snow on the ground, you had a much better chance to hook up and put distance on him. As Gnocide said, while launching the Syclone properly, it will end most races quickly. Watch my vid around 1:13 is when I am building boost for the launch.
It is like life. You win some and you lose some!
Im definitely gonna be doing the tune up and I haven't been able to test my launching out a whole lot, since I've been having issues with the truck and not wanting to push it too much at the moment, but it seems I can't get the wheels to hold over 1 pound before they start breaking loose and rolling. Guess that'll be something I have to work in too, lol
I own both and I can say that the ST is far nicer. I've never felt my truck at fill potential as its always been broken so can't help you much there.
