This modified Mk2 Ford Focus ST, in ‘performance blue’, belongs to Jack.

So far, over 30 modifications have been added to the car to get it to the standard it’s at today. Jack still isn’t content though – he plans to put the car on a Dyno and hopefully get around 320bhp out of it (with its current level of modifications) in the not-so-distant future.

Jack’s already had a remap on the car. It was a Dreamscience imap with ModXRS and V1 / V2 overrun maps.

Q&A with Jack

Do you modify cars yourself? Or use garages?

Garages I have used for work on my car include: OC Motorsport in Essex for my RS clutch fitting and my forge actuator setup. Another company, who I’ll be using more of in the future, are BRC performance in Ashford, Kent, for major work / stuff I was unable to do myself. The rest of the work has been done by me, with some friends (who own similar cars) helping when necessary.

What are your favourite car shows to attend in the UK?

Car shows that I will be attending this year will be: Ford on the fairway, BHP performance show, Father’s Day Motorfest – Essex, Ford Fair, TRAX, and lots of local meets in the Essex area.

Do you go to any track days?

I have not yet been on track in my car. I do plan to do a couple this year, or next year, once my car is in more of a ‘track-ready position’.
