My LAST DRIVE in the Project Ford Focus RS Red Edition! Shmeemobile SOLD

I have sold my project car Ford Focus RS Red Edition! What could be better for a final drive than going flat out at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, exactly as it was always intended. What a journey it's been with this Shmeemobile, but it's now going to be heading to a new home.
Check out the new Minichamps Shmee150 Edition 1:87 Ford GT and Ford Focus RS Heritage right here: www.minichamps...
Over the last 2 years, my Ford Focus RS has been a huge project car and a very exciting journey. It started in early 2018 with a collection day featuring all 3 of my Focus RS cars at the time, before progressing through a host of modifications to the interior, exterior, engine and much more.
The first stop was to Prototrim for a bespoke Alcantara interior, before venturing to Dub Customs to install the Ventus Veloce carbon fibre aero kit. Huge upgrades came from Mountune with an engine rebuild to 500hp, with intercooler, new turbo and more. It's also has plenty more including an Xforce Varex exhaust, BBS FI-R wheels, SS Tuning steering wheel, carbon fenders from Custom Carbon NL and a list that stretches out far beyond.
When the project started it was never the intention that the car would be a permanent Shmeemobile, and in fact it's been in the garage for longer than originally expected. Of course this is thanks in part to the Nurburgring plans earlier this year being unable to come together with the obvious travel restrictions, but I was not going to let the car go until I'd had the opportunity to put it on the Ring for a couple of good laps, and thankfully that time has now arisen.
Shmarc150 brought it out from the UK, where it has been awaiting an opportunity to undergo a few laps, which just so happen to have fallen on a day with the full Endurance loop available to add another flavour to the experience. During Touristenfahrten, with normal road rules applying, this is where it all starts to make sense as the combination of the power and 4WD help to push on at a remarkable rate of speed for such a car. There's no question it's an awesome car, but it's time now for it to move on to a new home where it will continued to be joined. In the meantime both my Heritage RS and Ford GT will be representing the Ford corner of the garage for the permanent future.
Awesome thumbnail pic from NurburgLivePics, be sure to check out pics of your laps and GP sessions at RaceTracker.de as well!

    This time has been coming, but I wasn't going to let the Red RS go without some proper laps on the Green Hell! What a way to enjoy a last drive before the project car is now being sold. What should be the next project in the garage?!

I'm not particularly saying that Tim is the fastest driver, I was just saying that the car is pretty fast considering the pricepoint and all of that. It's obvious that I wasn't comparing it to supercars or sports cars, nor I was comparing Tim with a racing driver with countless hours on the Nurburgring, but for a hot-hatch I think it does perform quite well.

    As you know Tim. I am a regular and subscriber to your great cartube channel. But I feel like putting something back into the online car enthusiast community, and not be typically critical! I feel like throwing a big nugget in here to all cartubers, as I’ve not seen any of you run with it so far? Never in the History of the Automobile, in this Cov-19 Pandemic year, or never in my lifetime, I was born in 1965, has the Car become much more important to us all, other than just a means of transportation!! Many of us have been forced to live within the small boundaries of our houses and homes. Our cars are the PERFECT means with which we can all still safely go out and live somewhat during this time! With our Car’s inherent “safety cocoon”!! I am sure it has been more than just commuting, they are directly keeping us all sane, more healthy, contributing to our overall mental health and most importantly making us all feel more optimistic about our Post-Pandemic lives!!!! In my eyes, this has been the YEAR OF THE CAR!!!! I should mention this as well. I am sure many of us here know of the inevitability of a financial recession happening world wide now. And many, many large and small companies going broke. Many larger companies crying they’ve had the worst sales this year in their short histories, ie Car Manufacturers. BUT! I am sure I am not alone in noticing this right now! Who knows of a family member or friend, that has bought a new or even brand new car this year? For me, 2 neighbors have bought brand new cars, my niece bought a brand new SUV this year, and I have seen more trailers with old cars ontop than ever before in my street!!!! I have even added an old classic car to my Dream Garage Collection this year!! I personally think we are all buying MORE cars this year then I can remember…No matter what the media is telling us all about, with our inevitable recession, and no one having any money to spend. In short..It really is the YEAR OF THE CAR!!!! My 2 cents. I’ve put forward this year to our online car enthusiast community. And thank you, if you’ve read my longish comment this far and for the couple of minutes of your time!

    Will thoroughly miss seeing this car on the channel! Was great to see this project from start to sold. I sadly just let go of my MK3 Focus ST. A brilliant chassis and car the ST/RS is! Hoping the new owner will love and enjoy it just as much as you have!

    Looks more fun on track than any of the supercars, seems like a much more lively car that makes the driver more involved rather than seeming almost like its on rails. May not be as fast, but it certainly looks more exciting.
