11.1 when the 4i had about 330bhp, T34.48, greens and a small amount of headwork

Im sure if i hadn't blown it up it would be under 10seconds with its current spec

One of my first rs 500s i bought of vinny pearson built by joe stevens in 96 running 537 hp and 486lb ft all bench dynoed by dave hills at mountune..

That was speed tested by fast car magazine and did 8.2 ..0-100 and 11.54 quarter mile with 181 mph top speed..

My escos when it 592 hp and 560 lb ft and 2wd did 7.9 but couldnt get a good start..

When all finished with the sequential box and 750 ish hp id hope for high 6 early 7 secs to the 100..

It was nippy

Im sure it would of been in the 9s, but i don't have any figures so would just be guessing.

It did make 492bhp @ the hubs in a car that weighs about 1400kg with me in it.

Found my old figures that Fast Ford done when the car was on the T34

0-60 = 5.041
0-100 = 11.147
0150 = 29.853

I hope so mate but its all about grip...

It is 2wd still so il have to rely on a good launch control system to help and my newer wider wheels and tyres..

But yes if it will grip then im hoping for 6s..

Totally agree, I know there are some quick cars about but most are geared for acceleration where as his still tops out over 200mph which is insane.

Just been looking at the latest rebuild ! wow

due to be faster again soon probably!

mk1racer off here has been doing some lightening 'handywork' on it.. and from what I
can make out,. apart from being white now. the Swb evo will be close to 1bhp per kilo...
and its 1080 kilos

Didn't Steve Scott's mk1 white focus Cossie do 7.1 0-100?

Anything under 10 secs to 100 is a seriously rapid car IMHO, iirc Rods old 500/500 T4 spec did 0-100 in mid 7's wasn't it?

What's a realistic 0-100 in a road trimmed 2wd saff with a decent rear beam & 500bhp? I'm thinking 8 secs ish?
