who doesnt believe u?

 

[CocoPops]

gah, I only got 6.94
Had a lot of tyre spin/squeal tho.

Well done mate.

 

[ad220]

I had loads of wheel spin at the beginning and was so surprised at my time. I think with a bit of practice I could have got around 6.2???

 

[fUbAr]

yeah ill second that, had loads of spin.

 

[JAY172]

is it standard ad172?

 

[Adams_16v]

i saw a fiesta zetec run 7.1

good work regardless tho mate

 

[ad220]

Jay 172 - Thats the that surprised me. Apart from an exhaust (Cat back) The car is completely standard. Ive always run it on Optimax and the engine has done 50k miles. So I can only think that the engine gets better with age.

[badinvincible]

^^^1/4 mile? 200m nearly a quarter a km, km is longer than a mile, possibly quarter mile time?

Untrue. A km is 1000m, and a mile is 1600m, hence...

a quater mile is 400m/ a quarter km is 250m.

Not quite - a mile is 1609.344m so 1/4mile is 402.336m - hence 0-400m should be quicker than a quarter mile...

Well done on the 0-60 mate. Fast for a basically standard car.
