Woww I am considering buying a fiesta st as second car😍and this video answered my questions about the esp settings how they work in the 3 drivemodes👌🏻 I wonder if you can drive in trackmode with sport esp 😅 The fifth secret is so true I own a fiesta 86ps and my car is really going a little bit to the right when I hold the steering wheel exactly to the center. I didn’t know this was normal until you clarified it thanks a lot 👍🏻

@@pirreli5 I've moved to a bmw m140i, wee hatchback with a 3.0 litre turbo and rear wheel drive. I've got a stage 1 tune with more than 400hp and I still think I could keep up with it in my old ST down a twisty road

When buying one, how can you tell if I’m buying the performance pack or not ?

Thanks a lot. Did not know about the infotainment "customization" and had to try it out right after the video ended. The only thing I would be kinda afraid is turning off your engine while driving - doesnt it also turn off the oil pump?

The oil pump is mechanically driven by the engine. If the engine is spinning the pump is spinning too.

There's no fake noise being pumped. It's real engine noise enhanced.

For Feature 3, do u need to press the ESC first for 5 seconds and then the other thing, or can u immediately use the feature with the silenced exhaust from start?

yeah just push it once and you're good. No traction control, and a slackened stability control. Works the same as the "sport mode" on the last fiesta st.

This was excellent

The only thing wrong with your steering wheel is that it's on the wrong side... ;) You should mention the fact that it comes with flat foot shifting even without the "performance pack" option (Blinking ST logo). Once you're over 6000 rpm it's there.

You seem pretty clued up on fast driving and heel and toe technique - so here is a question for you : What is the point of a flat bottom steering wheel !! ...... Does it serve a purpose ?

@solmackay

2 жыл бұрын

Haha thanks, to be honest I'm not a fan of a flat bottomed steering wheel. This car gets away with it though due to the steering lock, one turn either way. I'm not a fan of flat bottomed steering wheels in other cars as when manoeuvring around town you can sometimes go to grab a bit of the wheel that doesn't exist lol. I think it's just looks to be honest as racing wheels are rectangular as they don't need to move their hands about. For me though I like my steering wheel to be wheel shaped 😂
