Default Best Racing ST170 & Xsara

Hi Guys
I just discovered I'm a member of your forum by default as I'm a member of the FPV XR Owners Club Vic. I've been reading everything I can on the Focus ST170 as it's become my car of choice as a track car. I was going to leave you all alone until I become the proud owner. Well in my search I discovered your club and Motorsport gallery. To my suprise I found this photo of Best Racing. The Xsara in the photo belonged to me from 2006 until unfortunately we rolled it in Targa Wrestpoint this year. :

I'll keep you all up to date with my search for my ST170

Greetings Chris. That's an old photo for sure and it looks like it's from Eastern Creek but I can't remember the exact year, maybe 2005 and it might have been the last race before the owner sold it to you. Correct?

Best of luck with the search for a ST170.

Hi Fast Eddie

Yep that would be about right? I could'nt believe it when I stumbled across the photo. It was a great car but unfortunately did'nt survive the crash. We are building a Xsara for next years Targa. I'll keep you posted on my search for an ST170

Cheers Chris

Hi Chris
when you find your ST170 for your race car project , I have a almost new Quaife LSD that you might be interested in at a good price.
Thanks Darren
