0-60 times

They all look quite similar too but loads of people insist on posting pictures of them underneath railway arches or after they've cleaned and "detailed" them. Do people buy Clios to wash them as that might not be what they're about either :clown: :D this logic could be applied to 80% of posts which if they didn't exist it'd be a bit quiet on here; my point is, being a "Clio forum", any thread relating to Clios is valid.

Valid but pointless. Posting pictures of regular Clios should be banned too as it is pointless.

Here is the official Renaultsport published "on paper" 0-62 times (sorry no 0-60 :rolleyes:). These are claimed figs, i know all of yours are bound to be faster right?! Dont shoot the messenger, i went to great lenngths to collate this.

Clio V6 (2) - 5.8
Clio V6 (1) - 6.2
172 cup - 6.7
197 cup - 6.9
197 - 6.9
182 cup - 6.9
172 phase 1 - 7.0
182 / trophy - 7.1
172 - 7.2

1.2RN - a long time :rasp:

I hope this answers the question. I couldnt get a definitive on the trophy, it seems to be quoted alongside the normal 182 0-62. Is it much lighter?
 
Ignoring the V6's, the rest of those are so close that if they all had 10 races, the results would be different every single time.

Anyone who says different is just a deluded fan boy.

Arguing over 5 tenths of a second is such a pointless exercise :dapprove:

i only weight 9 and 3/4 of a stone, so my 197 is considerably faster than the published figs BTW, possible V6 eater.

Quick hot hatch as in a-b but as for acceleration then there is a awful lot of modern day traffic that will keep up in a straight line, all i'm trying to say is that the clio's are awesome little cars but there not about 0-60 times, and the tenths of seconds that separate the 172/182/197 isn't enough to worry about.

Most modern cars don't do 0-60 in 7 seconds realy do they. You average saloon is around 9-10 seconds, average supermini 11-13, SUV 9-12....

They're not very quick is a straight line granted, but if you work out an average 0-60 time of all cars on the roads in Britain, I bet the RS Clio's are in the top 30%.

I dont weigh much either. Im also tall so im better aerodynamically (what f**king difference that makes in a car, I have no idea, but I wanted to say it anyway)

if it was top speed, different ball game, 197 would be at the very bottom, but i only do max 70 on the public road anyway!

Where my cheese comment go? I was just highlighting the relevance of the 0-60 times on the Clios. Not at all.

so my williams is quicker than the lardarse vee...not only in acceleration either if the vees round spa are anything to go by ;)

LOL! - Cough! You said the Vee was faster!! I'd have you...Mainly coz ur wee spider chariott would fall to bits.

Yeah sub 5 is pretty rapid. The hypercar misses out by nearly a whole second then.

Who said anything about the hypercar sweetie! I just said sub 5's is where it's at.m;)

No idea about Williams, they are old news :rasp:


old news that can still lap faster than the new kids on the block........yeah they were s**t too ;)

ali...the slicks n track susp kinda did make em a wee bit quicker.......thru the corners. straights they werent

I was bored, so I worked out the approximate distance that each would take to get to 62.

using
v = u + at
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]v2 = u2 + 2as

where:
v = velocity (ms-1) = 27.71648 m/s (62mph)
u = inital velocity (ms-1) = 0 m/s (0mph :rasp: )
s = displacement in a straight line (m) - This is what we need to work out
t = time taken (s) - 0-62 time from
[/FONT]alant1000's post
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]a = acceleration - the increase of speed over a certain amount of time (ms-2) - This is worked out for each using the first equation.

[/FONT]Clio V6 (2) - 80.377m
Clio V6 (1) - 85.921m
172 cup - 92.850m
197 cup - 95.621m
197 - 95.621m
182 cup - 95.621m
172 phase 1 - 97.007m
182 / trophy - 98.393m
172 - 99.779m

This is only an approximation, as it assumes a constant acceleration, but it's close enough.

If you discount the V6's then the difference is 6.93 metres between a 172 cup and a 172 (fastest and slowest according to on paper figures). Or 1.81 car lengths.

Well done there mate! Shows the minimal difference between them all.

Just thought i'd add to this, but i weigh in at 45 kilos therefore when i actually get a clio, mine is obviously going to be worlds faster than anyone elses.
