0-60 times and in gear acceleration

pani_k · 25-08-2009, 03:21 PM

Hi all,

First of all what's the quoted standard RS 0-60 time? Secondly, have any of you RS owners had a timed 0-60 run with uprated power? How does the RS cope with circa 300bhp or so? Does it spin up or can you get the power down?

Also I'd like to know what it's like in gear; 40mph 3rd gear for example? How does it hold against M3s and V8 A4s?

Cheers!

XRT_si I thought I was up early!

Would be interesting to know as in gear is where it counts.

i run a focus rs gear box in my zetec turbo fezz, and hit 61mph @7150rpm with 215/50/15s (R888s) over 300hp and did 0-60 in 5.04.
it will spin up in 1st and a little bit in 2nd but still pulls you forward at the same time if you get me but NO spinning in 3rd .
