XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Ford FOCUS ST MK4 HATCHBACK (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2019-2026

A front-wheel-drive drag car lives and dies on what happens in the first sixty feet, and the Focus ST MK4 stacks the odds against you: 280bhp from the 2.3 EcoBoost trying to find grip through the same two tyres that steer the car. The XYZ Racing Drag Racing coilover for the Ford Focus ST MK4 Hatchback exists to fix that launch, controlling how the FO28-C settles its weight the instant you drop the clutch or sidestep the line-lock.

This is the drag-specific setup, not a fast-road compromise pressed into service. Because the MK4 ST ships with electronic adaptive dampers, this kit includes the cancellation kit for electronic damping, so the factory CCD module is bypassed cleanly without throwing a dash fault when the OEM struts come out.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2026 Ford Focus ST MK4

Off the line, the valving is set to let the nose rise and load the driven front axle, planting the contact patch exactly when the EcoBoost dumps its torque. That reduces the wheelspin and bog that costs FWD cars whole tenths before they have even crossed the beams. Through the traps you get a planted, settled platform instead of a car squirming on its soft OEM dampers at terminal speed. Ride height is fully adjustable, so you can set static rake to favour forward weight transfer and corner-balance the chassis for a straight, repeatable sixty-foot. For a single-purpose strip car, that consistency between passes is the difference between a PB and a wasted run.

About the Drag Racing coilover

XYZ Racing builds this series specifically for 0 to 400 metre drag work, and the engineering reflects one job rather than a broad brief. The damping logic manages front-to-rear weight distribution according to which axle is driven, so a FWD platform like the ST forces its front tyres into greater compression at launch. That deliberate loading cuts the idle time of the drive wheel, the dead moment where the tyre spins instead of driving the car forward. The same valving keeps the chassis stable as speed climbs toward the top end, where a softly sprung hatchback would otherwise feel nervous. The kit is offered across FWD, RWD and 4WD applications, with this version configured for the front-drive Focus and supplied with the electronic damping cancellation hardware the MK4 requires.

Fitment for the Ford Focus ST MK4 (2019-2026)

This kit is built for the FO28-C chassis Ford Focus ST MK4 Hatchback across the 2019 to 2026 model years. It is the variant for cars fitted with factory electronic damping, and the included cancellation kit handles that conversion. Confirm your car carries the adaptive damper option before ordering this version.
