Default 30 - 130

Whats the score with this ?

Any idea on what a good time is ?

Is it timed from when you accelerate through 30 or do you nail it from 30 ?

You should get to SantaPod and time the car you can guage from that what times the car does at certain MPH.

Otherwise its find somewhere/someone who can time the car.

I would certainly like to know what mine does from 30< as off the line it's pretty hideous

Just ask yourself this....every time you press the noise pedal does your face go slightly weird and start smiling uncontrollably and you get a silly little feeling inside every time you feel the boost coming in....if yes...

In 2004 PF did some figures during the 200mph run so mega gearing etc.
It recorded 8.3sec for 30-130. 4x4 Cars set up for this on proper gearing are in the low 6's I guess.

I'm not knocking figures at all everyone wants to have it down on paper but real world is always going to be different and figures just prove your car makes the numbers. Driveability and feel should also be as important as figures if not more imo as it's you behind the wheel but some people just want to number chase which if its their thing then go for it.
