My old Primera SRi (modded) ran 15.8 1/4 mile and then I added an exhaust and cams so say 15.6 after that, now when I raced Teadys 172 he would totally and utter shaft my Primera a new ring.

aaronc on the road the cup/ good 172 will be noticeably quicker than a 16 valve, ive seen valvers struggle to get below 16.6 secs 1/4 mile and also their terminal times are poor.

I did 1100 miles in one week when I got my Cup :D

How old is that? 15k for a Willy? :o 97? 98?

BenH and clean 16 valve what hp do your valver push out to keep up with a 225 hp TT?

That sounds strange to me cause when you are getting a quote from them when you select is your car modded its takes you to a huge list of mods that you can declare!

How fast were they going at the end of the strip? Is 2 miles enough to top out?

Never said I would hammer one did I? You need lots of HP to hammer a car, when i say beat im talking about 3-4 car lengths.

Hopefully there will be one at Crail at the start of April and we will see, if its standard I cant see it winning.

Aaronc let it go wont you! Dont make me and Teady drive all the way down south to a meet just to hammer your poor little 16 valver. I had a wee race with a Astra SRi Turbo (new style one) and I had slight edge on him on the straight, do you think you can go toe to toe with a 190-200 HP turbo...

mailto:B@llsie">B@llsie Ive asked this b4 but lost the thread where about are you from?

Mark I emailed k and n and they said they dont make a panel filter for the 172?

Mine cuts out at 7250, ive not tried to thrash it when cold so dont know where the warming up limiter cuts in.

Not really hammered my cups brakes yet, do you think 600 miles is enough to start giving them some stick and see what point they lock up? Or should I leave that till Ive done more miles.

Yeah but surely if he drove into a corner without knowing it was there by the time he hit the brakes and steered he would have hit apex of the corner anyway. I aint saying I wouldnt want ABS on my Cup but I just dont think any drive should rely on ABS to sort all of their c**k ups! And if they...

mailto:B@llsie">B@llsie where are you from?

Or lack of driver skill? or over confidence in car? or another drive? or mechanical failure?

The garage has my badges on order, not sure if I’ll fit them yet tho. Done 220 miles since 1 p.m just having a little break until i take it to 320:) , how long did everyone else run their 172s/Cups in for? I must admit I’ve weakened a few times and opened it up a bit:D

Im from Fife as well! Fancy a mini meet with me and Teady?

what a mailto:tw@t"> tw@t.

http://www.cliosport.net/gallery/clio172/jasonw1.jpg That mark 1 has had its side door protection strips colour coded (which in my opinion makes it look much nicer)

You’ve got the mental age of a 10-year-old.

Shorty what have you been taking? Must be some bad sh?t ! How can you possibly say a mark 1 is faster than a mark 2 cause they aint thats a fact, its down to the driver and that specific car. And as for saying a mark 1 172 looks better than a mark 2 well thats just laughable. The mark 1 is a...

What do the cup style badges say? Looks very nice BTW. Where about in Scotland are you from?

Go and slur that passed me again? What are you trying to say? That I drive a girly car what about yourself then?

Just telling you how it is, dont take a genius to work out what they can do to you.:o But I think you know what can happen as you seem to treat the roads like your own personal race track.

Very mature comment there Adi really showing your age, just telling you what happened to my pal.
