I dont see what the problem is boys, if being mods is so much of chore, why dont you do something about it.
Note the wink, seems you can get away with anything if you include the clique, sorry wink
you forgot the wink, remember, without it you sound like your on the windup.Quote: Originally posted by James on 14 September 2004
Anyway. Getting back ON TOPIC of the Willy being the best car in the whole world..........
2nd ed mate......the 172 owners know where the williams owners will be come raceday at york...........but do they ever turn up??.......1 or 2 do.......but the rest of em??????????????Quote: Originally posted by Vtec Abuser on 14 September 2004
Why dont you guys get a shootout organised, instead of arguing like a bunch of schoolgirls?
not necessarily - availablity of torque comes into it. i might be wrong but the willy makes about 85% of its torque from about 2k which i dont think the 172 does. Its similar arguement to willy v valver - fall out of the rev range (and you will to a certain extent when changing gear) and your 172 will not perform as well.Quote: Originally posted by ian 172 on 14 September 2004
if it can post this to 60mph then surely the 22hp advantage would tell on its way to 100 aswell
I do indeed.Quote: Originally posted by Adamf on 13 September 2004

Ive just watched ad172 post 0-60 in 6.35 in a very standard 172 mk2
Is there a clio williams anywhere with this low a time ,or are you all gonna go quiet like on his thread where there isnt one willy owner making a comment...
I suspect the old"ive got to change before 60mph" excuse will pop up though
The 1 infront...does yours go this fast???
ian
errrrr yes ,mate......i reckon it does now.........wot was nick reads 0-60 run ???? 6.7 i think..n mine seems to have the edge on his in that area..its not until about 80ish he starts to car=tch me up....
but i reckon lo 6s for def now mine will hit 60 in 2nd ....
Well for this topic, Mr McPot, that statement is fair enough, but in the bigger picture there is only one CLIO that surpases all of your meaningless 172s/182s/cups/wlliams/valvers/127s etc....Quote: Originally posted by Smokey McPot on 14 September 2004
The williams is better. Simple, the 172 is nice, but not quite good enough. End of.

so how many williams have 007...none i think(0-60)Quote: Originally posted by 007 on 14 September 2004
Ian 172 - exactly how many 172s have managed this magic 0-60 of 6.35?
Would that be one per chance?
On a day that a lot of people on various Ford forums managed rather stupidly low 0-60 times too?
I love the way the owners of newer machinary continually make snide comments about Williams owners defending thier cars as if they dont care and williams owners are dreaming - when infact the snide comments are proof that they do care - how dare a Williams owner think their "old" car can possibly be a match for something "NEW"
This is the only forum I visit that has these Egotrippers! LOL
