We get to Dragy test out our 0-60 driving skills this time in our cheap high mileage MK3 Focus RS. The car should be running at least 345hp but we have found out that it could actually be Mountune mapped so that would produce 375hp. This should push the car to 60 in around 4.5 seconds. Ben won last time in the RS4 Dragy challenge but only by 4/100 of a second. Is this time for Lee to get his own back? - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Before you watch the video comment who you think won the race ... it was extremely close!

The best 0-60 on the Focus RS is in 2nd, don't change up to third just floor it and let it reach 60 in second gear!
Launch control can be brutal on the driveshafts eventually, remember when Calvin's driveshafts went on his Audi RS6 with a launch control vid
Great father and son bonding time, I hope me and my lad are this close when he's old enough to drive.
I've had 3.82 with mine. No tune. Start in Track mode, side step clutch, flat change to 2nd, flash main beam and put heater on max as you hit 60. Works every time. Fold in mirrors and put wipers vertical for 3.2 seconds.
🤣🤣🤣
Good content at the minute guys. Keep up the good work. Just subed
Great review lads good fun more please 👍
Loving these videos, Cookie Monster in every video! Looking forwards to the RSQ3. Keep it up chaps!
Cheers mate means a lot 👍🏼
Just subbed..really enjoying the vids 👌
Cookie monster for every vid :) needs to happen LOL great content so far guys, very good, enjoying this light hearted banter
Great videos gents! Look forward to more great content. Golf r next.
Love the videos you've got on here and the banter! I'm sure that if you use launch control you can flat shift between 1st and 2nd gear.
M Shep yeah good call that definitely have to try that 👌
Look forward to seeing the RSQ3 🥰👍🏾
The car looks mint and sounds great 👍👍
Theres gonna be a colour clash !!! If he goes in the focus rs 🤣😂 great video guys as always 👌👍
Cookie Monster is the third member of the team. All good motoring programmes have 3 team members, and he’s the good looking one. Great stuff guys.
Haha he’s probably the only one who knows what he’s talking about too 😂
EVIL GT Just a thought but maybe you could ‘commission’ some sort of ‘mini’ Evil GT Cookie Monsters as ‘give always’. I know I would love one sat on the dash of my car.
Love this idea. Not sure how we’d get around the Cookie Monster copyright though. Leave this with us 👍🏼🤓
Put it in track mode and launch it, that’s what I’ve found the best, dump the clutch and flat shift between first and second that will get the time down
I've seen videos of people testing the 0-60 in the RS before and I think you can hit 60 at the top of 2nd gear
Yes you sure can done it like a thousand times. It wil do sub 4.6s
Oiiiiillll on the roaddddd! Channeling Johnny Davidson there! Great video
TheLeeroy83 chopper dyes his pubes ginger!!! 😂😂😂
Also the Mountune tune will allow fo flatfoot shifting. Use that for your timed runs!!
Great video Guys. I think if it had any mountune work or parts on it the previous owner would have paperwork. Try contacting Mountune, They will have details of the car if they worked on it 👍
Hiya mate, you said in your previous video about the car dipping revs when idling which was also the case with mine when I had it remapped. I had the car mapped and it blew the crankcase hose off, obviously the revs were going crazy high when in idle until I fixed it back on. It took a few months for the car to level itself out again but haven’t had the problem since
This page will grow fast...pure comedy and entertainment
Thanks for watching Marc. Cheers 👍🏼
Ford should have said standard 0-60 is 5 secs not 4.7 great video lads...
Hey guys, funny as hell. Keep it up. A Mountune mapped RS will have the launch control activated without the Ford driver assist menu. Start the car, rev it up with the clutch in and see. Also, you can choose 1 of 4 map slots with the Cruise Control button. Hit CrCtl cancel then use the Set up and down buttons to choose slot 1-4. At a Stop, the tach will go from 1k-2k-3k-4k depending on what map you choose.
- Standard high performance calibration
- Standard high performance calibration with indicated Launch Control and Flat Foot Shifting
- Low boost performance calibration
- Same as Slot 1 with LESS spark (aka panic mode / bad fuel mode)
That will tell you if you have a Mountune RS. Let us know.
Thanks we will have a look 👌
that's only if you have the M380 I think - the FPM375 doesn't have that functionality. M380 would have a tuning handset with it so it's most likely the FPM375. If you have an OBD2 reader you can look up the map revision quite easily - google search for the 375 map code to check.
You said it threw you back in your seat then said its absolutely terrible quality fair play 😂😂😂
well we saw in one of your videos the audi S3 being nearly 1 second slower to 60mph than the constructor's indicated time when loaded with passengers and in sub optimal weather conditions. So the focus rs times make perfect sense i would say. also comparing it with the S3 it is 200 kg heavier than S3 and only 50bhp (20-30 bhp maybe in reality) more power plus a hot summer day, seems like a normal pattern of performance variation. superb driving machine though, reference in its segment.
Perhaps the hot 🥵 weather didn’t help with the cars intake as I’m sure you already know 🥺
You didn’t have it in track mode so you did not get full power !!!! All the best Max
Love it
More on the RS please !
How is the ride now ?
And lets see the race with the S3. Cheers.
S3 has gone now but we’ll soon see how it gets on against the RS3. New video on the afocus tonight at 6pm 👍🏼
Did you replace the clutch as you said it was slipping?
8:07 OWWW 🤣
Ben you obviously started behind the 'hill'! 😂
Was like Everest that road 🤣
Could see the snow caps!! 😂 surprised I haven't seen you guys about as I'm always around the areas where you film! Have to keep my eyes open! 🖒
Definitely mate 👍🏼
I watched your Torque steer video, you're using the wrong tyres. You've got Pilot Sport 4, and Pilot sport 4S is what you need (car comes with Super Sports and 4S replaced the Super Sports.
"Slow as shit" lol
Get the cookie monster just tipping up doing something random each time.
My standard rs did 0-60 in 4. 8 with me on my own.. it’s now 400bhp and does it in 4.5
I got 4.4 on my own running DSUltima3 only got that couple times tho 😂.
I7p1 I’m on ultima 3 too 🤩 but I did my 0-60 on a stupid app that isn’t very accurate!! I need one of those boxes to get a more accurate time
Mountune say the m400r which i have does it in 4.2 but I'm rubbish at quick gear changes 😂 cheers steve 👍😀
Steve BHP DEVON amazing if you get 4.2 😮 and I always miss 3rd gear Lolol
@@michaelhesford5191 second to third seems to be my trouble aswell and also trying to flat shift when your used to lifting your foot to change gear is even harder when your concentrate to get third gear, its all fun trying, but when you get it right its satisfying 👍😀 cheers steve
Funny video guys =D
I got a question, do you guys know if it is hot outside can the RS have some little tougher times getting the pops and bangs out? I was trying to have some fun while driving home from work but it didn't let the pops and bangs out normally, i heard the Turbo more i think or the air suck thingy ^_^ hope you guys know more about this =)
I’ve not noticed a difference. Now you’ve mentioned it though we can keep an eye out 👍🏼
When your revving it out they dont tend to pop its finding the sweet spot cheers steve👍😀
Love it lol. Need to get a golf r. My stage 1 recorded 3.7 to 60mph
I’m guessing yours is auto
@@michaelhesford5191 yes dsg mate..
Martin Jackson I’ve raced my mates Manuel and beat it but it wouldn’t be beating a dsg !!! 👍
Siye Boss I’m a car fan I love all cars and they all have there unique things.. I picked the rs over all of the other hot hatches purely because of the RS badge and history and theres not that many knocking about.. Also mines 2018 and I’ve not had any problems with mine no head gasket issues nothing.. it runs absolutely perfect.. and yes mate it comes to life on the B roads 😁😎
Siye Boss yeah mate mine too.. looks soooo much better in person then it does on picture 🤩👍💎 and thanks mate up to now it’s been an absolute dream to drive.. not many cars would keep up with it on those bends 😁
It's that last gear change that's killing the time, can you hold second, I should know as I used to own one but can't remember.
We will see next time, going to be dragying it again as it’s just had some power mods so interesting to see if it’s any quicker.
@@EVILGT Look forward to the video, I wish I still had mine
Should be 4.7 secs as standard
My 2013 st just stage one can do 5.4
launch should be from 5200rpm....not 4500
What app are you using?
DavidinEssexUK Google Dragy GPS. It’s a small GPS box and the phone connects to it. Seems very accurate 👍
EVIL GT cheers. 👍👍👍
I've had 4.02 to 60 in my RS running 420bhp. I had the mountune 375 map previously and the best I got way 4.54. I think you should try again on a colder day. Or get the car dyno'd to see if it really is 375. I noticed in one of your previous videos that the car didn't have the mountune intake which should be fitted with the 375 map.
Hi James. Cheers for the info mate. It definitely has a mountune intake. You’ll see it on the pick up day video we did of the FRS. I think practice makes perfect with this car... we’ll keep trying. It’ll definitely be on the dyno soon too!! Thanks for watching 👍🏼
Launching on those cars is pretty destructive, if keeping avoid, if selling on have your fun 😂
@@JonathanTyas launched mine plenty of times without an issue. Ive owned mine from new (June '17) and done 27k. Its never been back to the dealer for any warranty work at all. The poor reliability is completely over hyped imo. If you read what people write on the internet you'd think these things break every 5 minutes 😂.
Is this a stock RS?
Mountune intake as far as we know mate 👍🏼
Once you guys learn how to change gear properly you'll nail it!! 😂😂😂
We’ll keep practicing until then 😂
That's the bit that makes the difference I think cheers steve 😀👍
@@STEVEBHPDEVON loving the vids guys by the way. 👌👍
Well. It doesn’t appear to be a very consistent 0-60 car. I don’t think I’ll be visiting santa pod anytime soon ha! Ah well, it’s a great motor non the less. Wonder how it’d fair up against the RS3 on a rolling. I did see a video on here of a FRS mk3 blow away an e92 m3 1/4 mile, literally left it standing...
I can’t have Lee beating me in that chav wagon 😅😅😅
Ha! 😂. To be fair, I know what you mean, they’ve not fast out of the box the mk3’s. They need more BHP! I’ve been restoring a 2001 Impreza P1 over the last few years and it’s brutal in comparison, it does weight a lot less though..!
We were talking about P1’s the other day. Absolute stunner! Definitely need to see pictures of that once it’s done. Good luck! 👍🏼
Yea it’s pretty much done now, just needs a few little bits here and there. The whole underside has been done. Trouble is, I don’t wanna take it out now lol! I’ll send you pics, is there a way to do that on here?
In the about us bit we have an email. Definitely want to see that 👍🏼
Remap
Get rid of that focus RS! They feel so stressed when doing quick launches and still not very quick. I sold mine due to duff handling, ok in the wet, but not a great car.
Their rs seemed abused and neglected. I have a type r and a rs and my rs is the complete opposite of what you’re saying
Marc M The horrific torque steer is well documented. Doesn’t seem to be a fix to be honest.Much prefer a car where you have some control over where it goes rather than one climbing a hill, the rear drive drops out and suddenly massive torque steer.
Mine handles great and I’m coming from and M4 and an M2 , love my RS
that car is "not" tuned...at all
The bald one wins lol
Why is ford stealing mopar colors?
Its a terrible car the focus
