An unforgettable street showdown unfolds as a four-wheel-drive Ford Focus RS goes head-to-head with a Nissan R35 GT-R in a high-stakes roll-racing and drag-racing battle. What looks like an unlikely matchup quickly turns into a level playing field, with both cars featuring savage turbocharged power, all-wheel-drive traction, and serious performance credentials. The Focus RS, converted to full AWD and producing around 680 horsepower from its 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine, proves it’s far more than a traditional hot hatch.

Across roll races, quarter-mile runs, and standing starts, the GT-R showcases its refined power delivery and launch dominance, while the Focus RS shocks with explosive acceleration and incredible 100–200 km/h times. Detailed V-Box data highlights the strengths of both builds, delivering raw numbers to match the on-track drama. This battle perfectly captures the contrast between a factory-bred supercar and a wild, Frankenstein-style street monster—making it one of the most entertaining four-wheel-drive street races to date.
