There was a time, not so long ago, that putting anything more than 200-horses on the road through the front wheels was considered a recipe for terminal power understeer. Things have certainly changed and, as Chris Harris points out in the video that follows, front-wheel drive hot hatches have really become very competent. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/chris-harris-puts-fords-focus-st.html#more">Read more »</a>
