Default Smoked by a Ford Focus?

Is there some sort of hot rod Focus you can buy? I was smoked several times on the freeway by a high school girl in a yellow hatchback. Damn, this thing was fast in top gear. Scares me to see teenagers in cars like this.

Default Ford Focus SE

A few weeks ago I was driving on a two lane road and passed a truck doing about 55 mph by going to the left lane. A Ford Focus SE was right behind me and when I changed lanes to pass so did he and I floored pedal to pass and that Ford Focus SE stayed right with me to almost 85 mph. So stock A6 2.7T wont put any distance on a Ford Focus. I found that out. It may be b/c it weighs alot more.
