Check it out.. lol

 

Good find. The car has a very interesting rear suspension setup. I wonder how well it handles.

That looks like the LCA from an IRS cobra. I'm guessing they adapted some sort of reduced width IRS subframe that would fit in the focus and hold the IRS components. They're not using the shock mount though (see black rubber smudge on left side of picture), so I'd be curious to see where they are mounting things.

I'm also curious what the LCA pivot points being so close together does to the roll center....


It's also going to be horribly front heavy.

 

I'll bet it does nice burnouts.

 

How did they shoe horn that engine in there?

Thats crazy, imagine that car pulling up next to you and revving his engine. You would probably just laugh and then hope he doesnt get any traction.

Thats a sweet install though, what did that engine cost about $10k?

 

I bet it wheel hops like a bitch.

 

:o omg that would be sooo awesome mingrey is right tho looks like the weight ratio is not there

 

Looks like they've done the traditional things to balance out the weight (note the lack of a battery in the engine compartement), but I'm guessing it's still 70/30 or worse....
