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[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]where:[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]v = velocity (ms-1) = 27.71648 m/s (62mph)[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]u = inital velocity (ms-1) = 0 m/s (0mph :rasp: )[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]s = displacement in a straight line (m) - This is what we need to work out[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]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.
