12 sec Clio !!!

[MATT BLACK]

Managed a 12.9 qtr mile at York on monday compared to the 13.2s i was getting before the LSD. Thats 0.3 of a second faster than normal....so i was getting 13.0 @ santa pod, so i reckon now i will see 12.7, although ive a little trick up my sleeve and am aiming for a 12.5.

 

[mr_merc]

For those of us not in the know, any chance of a brief spec?

 

[Spammy]

VAG 1.8T 20v engine, tuned.

 

[Christopher]

[badinvincible]

f**k me, Matt did you get my PM about Crail?

 

[clowo16v]

Looked well impressive as you blasted away from me hehe. What did you run with the 172 engine? Also was it all standard apart from the nitrous?

[Graham Gooch]

yeah with the power of that vag you should be into the 11s

mikes 12.18 run was done on 230bhp, carbed, not fully stripped, just a good driver, and sticky slicks

he building one which will run 11s poss high 10s watch this space and that still 1.4 8v not a different car companys much bigger 1.8 20v turbo
