first video review?

although should be taken with a grain of salt.. the guy gets excited easily and is a bit fanboi-y (about anything automotive, not just this)

 

Its a great car with great possibilities why they do need this literally Drifting BS story around it?

 

Because most people want to drive like a rally car, but don't know how. Now they can

 

well, I don't think I can drive it like the big guys a rally car, and I don't think the drift button is the solution.
I will see hopefully soon. If everything goes through I will be driving one soon in Europe. Its only depends when the inviter will get they RS.

 

i dunno. i think if the Engineer can figure it out, anyone can LOL

 

It's marketing... There are a lot more people that think the whole drifting propaganda thing around the RS is cool then there are annoyed by it... They gotta cater to the numbers...

 

People still fail to realize Ken Block has basically failed at WRC ROFL!!!

Buy your way in and keep paying hoping that you will finish and crease lots of cars as you go. Then barely keep up with the VSC built subarus in MSport full wrc spec cars in RallyAmerica hmmmm.

Plus most of the drivers that "drift button" to success, McRae, Tommi, Kankkunen to name a few made their cars setups basically UNDRIVEABLE for their teammates (basic geometry/diff settings remain similar amongst cars with only small adjustments to different drivers).

Super slide, big sideways action in WRC is basically dead anyway since the mid 2000's and it was a solution to mechanical deficiencies/limitations of the cars themselves. Anyway ya'll can ignore my ramble now lol.

 

lol no its all good

There is no drift button will make you do this , you got to love Gigi


here you can see the unsophisticated (by today or RS standards ) this Evo diffs working flawlessly.

or this old commercial where you see the Evo just drifting fine without drifting button.

10 sec in:

 

That's why we love you ROB!!!

"If you buy our cool awesome new gimmick car you can 'Drift button' too just like the pro's.... oh wait NO YOU CANT!!!"

 

But most people will do this type of drifting I am sure, RS drift button or not:


now they can do it, they have a DRIFT button lol

Subaru call it DCCD



and this is how much of a BIG deal Mitsubishi did with a drift button lol

 

you're not alone

 

exactly

 

This thread delivers on all levels.

Cant wait to get mine.

"...Ford discovered that in particularly humid conditions, the intercooler was working too efficiently, which caused a build up of water vapour. And because water in an engine is bad news, Ford searched through its parts bin and took the same blanking plate that it used for its diesel Transit van intercoolers and placed it over the intercoolers of the Focus RSs. "

 

The F150 ecoboost had that issue in 2011-2012. Intercooler would partially fill with water in humid climates and ruin performance of the vehicle.

So, when you turn the boost up and the turbo makes more heat, you remove that plate and you have an "upgraded" intercooler already on the car...nice lol
