clio 172 0-60



  Golf 7R
5.5 to 60 in moist conditions, so we are talking about high 4's in the dry relatively speaking....thats audi rs4 territory........hmmmm
 
  BMW E46 330i Touring
I haven't been able to measure 0-60 yet...

... the minute I stick my foot on the throttle I'm up at 75mph, so I'd imagine 0-60mph of approximately 0.12 seconds.

Crapit! My best 0-60 is 0.14 seconds, grrrrr. You've beaten me!

And before anyone asks, no, I don't have any solid proof of my 0.14 sec run whatsoever, but I did it!! You can ask any of the 4 passengers which were in my car at the time.

I managed a 5.39 0-60 at York (proper timing equipment) but that was with no rears and not standard. Probably on a gtech that wasn't quite set right.

Chris
Yes i was using gtech , i will check this out later as it seems that everyone thinks im full of it!
Lol

Gtec, gradients, stripped, taking all this into consideration i doubt you will break 6seconds if im being honest!

it's more a case of why have you lied? at least make it semi-believable if you are going to try and insult peoples intelligence.

taking anyone out for a spin wont make a blind bit of difference, as your car wont do 5.5 to 60, in the dry, wet or on the surface of the moon. not a hope in hell.

no back seats and door cards are probably about 70kg's in weight saved, which considering you say the car is standard means your power to weight ratio slightly increases, but even mine wont pull those kind of times to 60 and it has considerably more power than your 172.

for example, 218bhp, full interior, but aluminium boot lid and bonnect, no aircon, lighter engine due to bodies so about 1000kg's (lighter than yours I'd imagine) and it ran a 5.7 with real timing equipment from when Chris owned it... so I'd say your "My first 1/4 mile" recording equipment is calibrated wrong, as the claims are like the crap you read next to the "drivers estimates" bit in Max Power.
 
A standard 172Cup would need to be weighing around 850kg (near impossible?) to stand a chance of pulling those figures.

Thats a fair comment , but like i say ive got nothing to compare it against i will check this later , I must be wrong the figures i have given are quite optimistic , im just quoting what i have seen with my own two eyes ,i apologise if im wrong .
 
seriously mate, there's just no possible way of it doing even remotely near that sort of time in the wet. Best would be a high 7 low 8.

Chris n Nic's car did a 5.3, but that's also with rear seats out, 196bhp and 175lbs of torque... which is a considerable amount more than a standard Mk2

Fair play ive just been speaking to my bro who has used this gtech before and he even said they are not spot on . so it looks like i was in the wrong i do apologise.
i do feel a bit silly, i thought these things were supposed to be accurate !

If these figures were accurate that would mean i have the worlds fastest cup !!!lol

This evening im attempting to break the 6 secone barrier...i'll fill the car with helium, take cd's from glove box, put the backseats down, remove the foam and slick my hair for aerodynamic purposes i will let you know how i get on!

i did 6.64 at FCS iirc. Tried the g-tech thing and got similar... Tho i'm not sure which is more inaccurate. FCS or the ghetto metre.

LOL I didn't realise back seats and 20 hp was good for a second and a half, so if i get a abt chip and an extra 30 hp and take the back seats out, i'll be 5 seconds dead, fcuk me, wheres my spanners.

lol, yup, they are pretty gash tbh, your best bet is taking it to York or Santa Pod to find out your 1/4 mile and you can usually work out roughly what your 0-60 time is based on other peoples results... they do time them 0-60 sometimes as well for you.

From a VERY strong engined Cup like Chris' for example I'd expect around a 6.1-6.5 best 0-60 with dry weather and perfect launch. Anytime around that would be one rapid Clio, the 5's are normally reserved for the seriously modded and stripped cars and the odd freak.
 
my gtec said the hybrid did 9secs to 60 and my mates valver which was considerably slower did it in 7..... work that out
 
I was under the impression they are accurate if installed and setup correctly, and used on a level road?

Certainly, mine seems to consistently record what the car is generally thought to be capable of.

6.4 to 60
16.6 to 100
1/4 in 15.2 @ 94mph

Lol, Gtechs arent the most accurate timing gear you can get, but for £35, they are good for having a laugh with your mates

I think you need to remove the shell to get that sort of time mate.Not the seats...lol
