http://www.evo.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2915&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=450 this link has a sumary of the cars that did it on the evo site. i wanna see how mine compares to golfs on here because as youll see i got the slowest time lol
i remember the 50-70 epic thread years ago, some people were coming out with silly figures that seemed unlikely for their car, but compared to a lot of the machinery there, my golf is a bit weedy hence im not too suprised lol
LOL my mk2 8v GTI takes an eternal 15 secs to cover 60-100 indicated. 3rd + 4th gear. Always said 8v's were pants
my extra ballast was the missus. i doubt ditching her will make the car a lot faster tho lol may try a solo 60-100 run
Ok, did a run in the Saab - bearing in mind this was a oxo-1-oxo-2- count it was about 8 seconds. I will confirm tomorrow with a stopwatch, but I reckon thats pretty good for 10 year old motor worth about a grand!! This was on my own, but with child seat and pram in the back - no child obviously... the beauty of this motor is that its a straight pull in 3rd. And I get 30+ mpg, awesome engine! I now think that 4 secs is proper supercar territory. Havent been on the evo forum yet, may go and have a look how 8 secs compares. Who was it that had the 0-100 in 10 secs SEAT? That must have had some serious juice. Cheers, Pad
earlier on in the thread i posted a link to the evo site's car and time list. from memory that was elise ish time. definately good though, well done
So none of your GTi's will hit the 100 in third?? Surely if you hammer it into third doing 60mph in second it should acheive 100 quite fast.
jeez, they are an excitable bunch. I only looked at a couple of pages before being chucked off - may join for a laugh. Elise quick eh? That cant be right, I know the old SAAB is quick but I would be genuinely impressed if it was that quick. i definitely want to get a stopwatch on it now. Saw someone posted a 9.5 in a CTR - that made me smile though, I know someone who thought that theirs could destroy anything. Nob.
I'll try it in the gf's car when I'm next out in it. mk4 R32, Schrick 264 cams, Revo remap, Milltek hi-flow cats and exhaust.
