This just in...

Ford Focus stops faster than a Caterham R400 according to morons at AutoCar.

 

See for yourself.

 

Do they even look at this crap before posting it? At least Ariel Atom tied the Focus in braking :lol:

The Caterham run was done in the wet. That might explain it.

Dang .. I need to go get me a Ford Focus!

Well smoking all 4 tires to get stopped does nothing but

improve your ride with flat spots. I guess these boys do

not know how to stop quickly without ABS.:crazy:

the Cat isn't even making it to 100 in less than 11 seconds

but the atom does it in 6....? Of course the atom does have

the engine in the rear... I'm sure that is helping with standing water

on the track....

I guess the Focus was put there so the Ariel could smoke something. The 211 looked pretty good. Both the 211 and the Caterham had some wet conditions.

i don't think the Fukkus ever hit 100. think it ran out of tarmac and hitting a wall slowed it down the quickest.

I wonder how bad condtions had to be to cancel the test? It's just bad ink.

This is filmed in the UK... If they canceled a car test every time there was a little rain, they would never get enough material together to produce a show.

In case of Autocar, maybe that'd be a good thing
