Ford Focus RS 500 on the test track - Click above to watch video after the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/26/five-days-to-the-ford-focus-rs500/)

On March 31 we're going to find out about a thing called the Ford Focus RS 500. The Blue Oval has posted a video of the even-more-hotted-up Focus doing a twilight round of its European test track in Lommel, Belgium. And it sounds rather... fierce. We're trying to figure out exactly what the 500 stands for: Units? Horsepower (don't be silly!)? Something else?

While we stew, you can follow the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/26/five-days-to-the-ford-focus-rs500/) and listen to the sound of it in the video. And if any of you know what's coming, feel free to let us know in the comments.
