0-60 - What have u had

[_Tom]

Anyone whos been timed or has a g-tech meter? So far ive managed to get a 6.4 at best but there is still room to improve. I reckon once i strip it of its spare wheel, interior (leather) and get my new manifold fitted i should be seeing very low 6s or maybe even break into the 5s! Just need to sort my off the line starts.....

My best effort so far:

Still not bad for a full fat willy hybrid though really.

Supposed to be pretty damn accurate! People have run them down the 1/4 with them and they have been withing .1 of the timing gear

7.8 on an AP22 but Im sh*t at launching, Im used to rolling starts!

 

[Chris n nic]

I managed a 5.8 at York (proper timing equipment) Was really wet to start with but dried up later. Std airbox, s/s exhaust/decat and Rsport with just the rear seats out. Jesus has a vid but I havent got it off him yet

[_Tom]

Stopwatched timed,mines around 7secs.With exhaust mods,but I cant get 60 in 2nd.

 

[TheJesus]

no idea what 0-60 mine will do, would love to find out someday, but with std rev limiter I cant see it being too hot, low to mid 6s at a guess... think 5s are pretty much guaranteed once the rev limit is increased to 7k+ on current spec tho.

Chris, ill be on MSN tonight and Ill fire that video accross for you mate.

 

[blink172]

On the G-Tech ive scored a 6.56 for a chubby 172, best time and launched on brand new tarmac that had a ton of grip. On normal crappy roads its about 6.7-6.8 no problems.

Turn ESP off though, it bogs you down no end.

 

[Chris n nic]

Cheers Jon. Ill see you on tonight

6.4-.5 ishRPM and it wont quite do 60 in 2nd then so it makes the 0-60 a bit sloooow. Yeah bring that thing along Tom,could be interesting.

 

[Tucks]

Oh & Airfield should be on in October

 

[Leeshez]

I have had 60 MPH out mine a couple of times LOL

 

[MOJJO]

Beast! Bet that was hard to get traction in! Bet it used to torque steer like a fooker too!

 

[Bryan]

yep, was puching just shy of 200bhp, lots of money spent on the engine, then sold the car as the suspension was too stiff for the car and popped its way through the suspension strut in the boot

i will own another minter at some point

oh, if anyone sees it H116 DBD, contact the owner, tell them i want it back

 

[Martin]

Never done a proper 0-60 in any of my cars.....did 0-80 in 9.1 though.

 

[ChrisR]

6.8 on the gtech in the wet, mk1 172.

 

[Mike@Rentech]

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Timed at FCS

 

[jonnyboy]

6.5 timed with wheelspin in 3rd at FCS, Gtech on a nice dry day got 6.00 dead

 

[Andyvalver]

Ive had a 7.0 with my g-tech but averaged about 7.2 to 7.5. Did a 7.9 with my mate in the car though.

 

[JayGTT]

5.7 in my GTT

my 172 is good for mid to low 6s

 

[homerjay]

best i got was 6.28 in my 182

expecting mid 4s in my scoob when i have a bash.

 

[viceroy]

7.9s in my mk1 172...really a good time considering the quoted time in mags is 8.4s

 

[TheJesus]

how come its not quoted as 6 seconds as in the UK?

 

[viceroy]

cos we have thin air

 

[theduck]

10.05 in my 1.6 8v, not bad really, think i can get it just under 10 seconds with better change from 2nd to 3rd, think i change a lil too late
