Torque steer isn't as bad as, say, a Focus ST, but you can feel it tugging. Wheel spin off the line, yup. It's there. For sure. Prepare for even more when it's wet outside. The wheels spin up nice and good. Even on dry they do.

In case anyone was expecting this to not happen, a word of advice......
Hey Con how much quicker would you say it has made it to 100km/h and do you think wheelspin could be controlled a bit more with wider good quality tyres ?

Did you have to change the air intake at all or have you left it stock atm?

The missus has a 2010 zetec atm and have put slightly bigger rubber on that and it drives so much better so wondering about going for an ST and going the whole hog as far as tunes ,wheels etc as like the look of these ST's with aftermarket wheels. http://www.revotechnik.com/type/17041/13/
