Fiesta STs spotted in NC!

[NATYPE]

Really appreciate you reaching out @dhminer - still in flux whether or not I can get some PTO going around then to make it work. I'll post here if I can of course! Somehow didn't realize that whole journey would really only be an hour and a half for me it seems like.

Yeah, VIR is super convenient. So happy to have this amazing track this close to home.

Looking like Friday could be a very wet day.

Unfortunately so. If the forecast stays or gets worse, I likely won’t go.

Officially postponed to December 9.

Any NC FiST's down for a casual meet up or photo session? Would be fun to meet some of you I'm sure, also always have my camera and would love to get some more local builds photographed and up on here.

Literally nothing specific in mind, just a feeler for now.

Just saw this. I’m definitely down any time

I really need to get my fiesta fixed and then I might have to try to make it to one of these tracks days

I did a couple HPDE weekends at VIR with NASA over 6 years ago. It was a blast. My car was stock back then. I can only imagine what my lap time would be now.

For anyone who makes the charity laps, I am sure you will have a great time.

They’re more of a social gathering than racing, but a ton of fun for sure and a great charity

That would be fun for sure

Still thinking about a get together / meet and greet type of deal. Especially just to hear your eventual exhaust / dp / manifold setup @dhminer - I'd love to hear the Greddy in person.

Work has been kicking my ass but I'm just about back on top of things. Feels like I'm seeing FiST's a little more often around here.

I’m down anytime. Hoping to be done with it all in the spring before baby comes! Maybe I can bring one of y’all my 2860 kit when we get together

Who dis on 40 West this morning a little after 9 AM?

 

[FiestaSTdude]

I’ve seen two fists in the last couple weeks:
First one was white on stock wheels. I was delivering solar panels to the house where it was parked. Anyone’s mom just get solar panels lol?
Second one was in Cary northbound on us 1. Silver car with numbers on the door and a hexagonal pattern on the back doors.

I saw a magnetic fiesta westbound on I-40 today right at the exit for us-1, I don’t think he saw me.
Also saw this car last week near Kaplan Road in Raleigh while on a delivery.

Whoever this is they have one of the wheels options I’m looking at getting, so it was helpful to see their car.

Ooh nice! Terra's are fun. I haven't seen that one around.

Hey local homies. I’ve finally got my fiesta some garage space to install all the parts I’ve been stockpiling. Going to have a lot of parts to get rid of as well and want to give y’all first dibs. It’ll be a month or more before I make a FS thread with all of this so just PM me if you’re interested in any of this and I won’t put it in the FS post when I eventually make it.

Shit to get rid of and will add more as I discover it in the box heap:
- 1552 chicanes in silver with OEM tires
- GTX2860 kit with WOR modified stock manifold that’s been ceramic coated
- Mountune spec Turbosmart symposer port BOV
- Mountune intercooler
- OEM intercooler
- Mountune intake
- Whoosh v3 catted downpipe
- Stratified 4 port aux fuel kit
- Mountune RMM
- CPE RMM (new in box)
- OEM turbo
- Custom shifter assembly made by greyfist. Similar to Boomba shift lever but uses modified OEM shifter

I may also have to part with my Mountune hot side pipe and intake if they don’t fit the g25, in which case I’ll probably try to sell the turbo, intake, manifold, hot side, and BOV as a turn-key kit that took me 6 months to find parts that would mate up in a way that’s satisfactory to my perfectionism.
