The Switchup

[straightliner1]

Greetings again all...

I previously mentioned I had to sell my '13 Boss due to a steep increase in my commute. I traded it in for a '14 Focus ST3. Love the mileage and it's actually a fun little car. While there's no comparison to the brute torque of the Roadrunner, the Eco 2.0 does a great job.

Now if I could only learn how to deal with this new fangled torquesteer...

I like it...

I've driven a couple of them and I like the ST a lot. A co-worker has one and I get to ride in it frequently.

I was told by an AutoXer running a Fiesta ST that the car uses the front brakes (one side at a time I am guessing) to make the diff transfer power to the outside wheel. Is that true? If it is then tracking with race pads might get interesting when you turn the wheel... Another software solution to cheaping out on a proper diff.

Edit: He said there was no way to turn if off, either. Not turned off with traction control, but they could also use it to slow the wheel that has no grip and transfer to the other. Just use a Torsen, Ford!
