thats probably about right, qlthough some ppl might argue that the racing shocks gives the trophy the edge, but down a quarter mile my money would be on the 172cup.

I really doubt there is any difference between them as a general rule. The engines power when it came out the factory was all over the place.

I had a mk2 172 FF and as standard was only putting out 159bhp

My mk2 ph1 172 i have now is faster

Generally the 172 cups do seem to have the edge tho from what i have seen

Also without opening a can of worms, didnt somebody consistantly get a cup packed 182 round a track fastert than a trophy?

Basically there isnt a lot between any of them mate

thanks.....

Because the 172cup is lighter and has a better bhp/ton - 171 to 168.

Thats why it is the real cup

hehe, how true. seriously tho, was at the MK meet last night, went for blat round the bk roads, chap behind me was in a 182FF with cup packs and he said i definately had the edge, was pulling away in 2nd no probs.

The williams would break so...It can't go on that list.

All things being equal I would agree with that list, not much in it probably talking about a couple of tenths of a sec to 100mph between the lot of them

When road tested new, wasn't the 182cup quickest? The engine's get quicker with mileage, so wouldn't that be why the 172cup/mk1 are quickest now?

as stated above the 172 cups have the better bhp/per tonne out of all the renault sports, this is what gives them the edge. As also said above though, we are talking tenths of a second
