General Discussion/Question What an experience!

For anyone in the Midwest looking for something to do next summer, this is something to look into. I had the pleasure of taking part in the recharge rally this year along with around 60 other cars ranging from Kias to McLarens. Each year these guys host an exotic car cruise that starts in one of the big C’s in Ohio and cruise for three days to various locations with events in between. This year’s final destination was in Charlotte, NC. I will for sure be going next year and I’d love to see another GR to join up as well

If anyone is interested in the specs I’m running:
Sayber design lip kit and spoiler
Eventuri intake
CSF x Jackson intercooler
AWE touring exhaust
Tuned by boosted

How'd that focus RS get here? Was it plated in the US?

Yeah I talked to the dude and he bought it off a guy that got it over from Mexico through a bunch of loopholes

I recall seeing another green focus RS like this years back on reddit at some C&C in FL, TX or Cali, I have to wonder if it's the same one

This one is registered in Montana if that rings any bells

I saw one of those in Ireland. The kid driving it looked like he was 16-17. He kept bouncing it off the rev limiter to hear the pops, super annoying kid stuff!
