Minnesota Focus Owners Club

Hi, I found this site through focasfanatics.com Im from Princeton MN, I have a 2001 Focus ZX3 "hornet" race car. Its basically a fully gutted and stripped car, add a 8 point roll cage, racing seat, and a 5 point harness. I plan on racing at the Princeton Speedway (dirt), Ogilvie Raceway (dirt), and Elko Speedway (tar) Two weeks ago was the first time i have ever been on a race track, it was practice, then last Friday was the first time i ever tried racing, the second lap i ended up rolling over.

Welcome! A track racer. Wow how cool! Welcome and get us some pics! (Stiltz, I see a meet at Elko in our future:) )

Welcome!

I've been through Princeton a handfull of times this past month.

Welcome to the site

Do you work at Tousley? I have a friend that owns a shop in Princeton that buys quite a bit there.

I wouldn't say steve "works" at tousley.......he more so sits on his ass all day

I "sit on my ass" at a parts store in Princeton. (Auto Value)

that's awesome man. welcome to the site. you ever thought bout rally crossing it? it's be fun as hell

Yes, but my car doesnt have any windows, i have a windshield that i can duct tape on if i had too.


Do they require windows if i have a simpson racing helmet, and the cage, seat, window net, and harness?

you'd need a window net. there's another guy that used a honda hornet car last year. idk if you could just use plexi, but if you just had the driver glass it would work i suppose. if you register over at mnsubaru.com and PMed ScubaSteve or Mayhem83 they'd be able to answer those Qs for sure

the windshield has 3 bars welded over it, the drivers side window has a window net. I would love to try it, can you pm one of them for me?
