The Swedish Olsbergs Motor Sport Evolution (MSE) team showed up at a local Ford dealer in Colorado to promote their Pikes Peak run.

Look for more Pikes Peak coverage coming soon on FiestaFaction.com

Awesome, pure awesome! I really wish I could have gone out there with the Fiesta Movement, but I am out of vacation time and instead of a plant shutdown, we got overtime. Oh well, at least I have FiestaFaction to keep me up to date. Thanks Ron!

I saw it! It looks just like the press car that was used in the Tuscany photo shoot. Funny they are showing a variant that won't be sold in the states. Over and over again, the three door hatch is said to be staying on the good side of the Atlantic. Its killing me not to be at Pikes Peak this week.

Hey Ron, there is some sweet new material on the Ford Media site that would be worth posting.... so I've heard.

In practice, it didn't always go too well:

Also a 2005 Fiesta ST is competing:

And there should be another Euro-Ford there: the iconic 1984 Ford RS 200, but I haven't spotted it yet.
