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.
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
Golf 7R
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!

Not sure what yozza's cup hits 60 in??

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 post went tits up.. deleted cos of a bad link.

Nippy white cup
I've never tried it myself but I think adi and a few others have tried theirs against proper timing equipment and the difference was very small i.e .1 or .2 secs difference.
