MKIII 138

there's a big gt meet at trafford centre tomorrow nite mate
Very nice car! I don't find it to be that ugly
What kind of BHP is it putting out?
Daz
it made 200 whp at 1 bar thats all i know so far cus it was road mapped for the upped boost
the question was what insurance group are starlets, so i answered. It wasnt car/person specific! :rasp:

Probably didn't want to crash his 38k car for the sake of a half hearted race with what he thought was a chav, in the wet. Some what sensible driving for a BMW owner???
lol ^^^^ he was tryin his hardest to get past!
Ppl who define drivers with this chav word really need to define the proper meaning! there was no burberry , ripspeed, lexus lights insight, just a raw car moving some, gauges aglow, and roll cage on show im sure he didnt mistake it for a "chav"
the price tag prob had something to do with why he wouldnt look over and his gf seemed to be shouting at him.

I'd agree this deffo doesnt look like a chav mobile. It'd be more the case of the beemer driver being gutted.
I've done one before and he was far from happy. Youngish lad with 2 mates in the car laughing at me and smiling at my girlfriend. He tried to undertake, i accelerated was neck and neck then i soared away... I slowed and he went past 5 mins later looking gutted! lol

lol then why he try it off 2 sets of lights and round a roundabout down the dual carriage way only to get owned each time
Clio 172 mk2

I wasn't saying ben or his car is chavvy, im saying the bmw probably saw him as a chav and didn't want to entertain a race. It is very rare that I (or alot of other members) will race a saxo or a nova/corsa just to show them how fast my car is, waste of time.
I'd like to race your starlet with me in an M3 and see how we go. would be interesting.
i similar spec car to mine running same boost on same turbo etc. made 300whp so anyone in the drivers seat of the bm wouldnt make a difference. power to weight ratio's say its gonna lose either way.
from wat i can find the manual M3 does a quarter in 13.4 secs with its rwd launch and a trap speed of 104mph. i did a 13.4 at 1 bar of boost in a fwd 1.3. with a trap speed of 107mph so at 1.6 bar you dont think i'd leave it behind?

No I dont lol.
At the end of the day the m3 can do 160mph they all go quicker than 155mph limiter, de restricted you can get a touch more. Eventually it will lead, your car is no doubt faster up to 110 odd though. Give it a long enough road like a motorway etc.
On a give and take a/b road the m3 will never get past though.
Cool 172boost all you have to do is go buy an M3
Ralph Wiggum even on a motorway would have be pretty mad driver to establish a lead especially at those speeds :S the starlet pulls all the way to 145mph
Yeah but displacement pwns top end.
I'd like to be wrong but I reckon the m3 would come past eventually.
lol well of course it would come past "eventually" its going to coz the GT would hit 145 and stay there
It would overtake before 145mph imo.
a std m3 is only 3mph behind at 100mph lol.
And dont say its a 1.3 blah blah, the starlet is modifyed to fook lol.
