those 172's arnt a bad motor at all, i used to have a 182ff & in fairness wasnt slow, apariently they only have a top speed of 135mph or so but i had over 140 out of my 182 & that was befor the shift light came on, on a 172 its orange just incase u dont know,

Surly a 182 would be quicker than a 200bhp turbo car

btw jc has one and davecos4x4 took me out in it and jc took out my missus,,, i LOVED it, seriously was soo much fun ect ect
the missus,,, she wasnt so good about it and the next year at the ring i had to talk her into letting jc take her for a lap again but in the impreza,,,, where she threw up pmsl
id SERIOUSLY consider getting one !!

how much then? me & a mate are planning on gettin a car between us untill we gain abit of track experiance, i fancy a accident damaged 1 to bodge back together (never to be regesterd on road) to use. a nice 172 cup would be my ideal choice

The Silver 172 at croft (durham derby meet) was mine and my brothers. We were the only PH1 there.
