is it your 276 scoob thats 4.9 cos a standard wrx is around anywhere between 5.7 and 6.1 in estate form. in real life that gear change is most likely from the scoob as the chav scrambles to get his jewelry out of the way.. 0-60s are cool i guess but apart from drag racing i couldnt imagine a 270hp scoob beasting a 172cup like the vid one with coilovers in reality on fun roads it would be even unless you had long straights to exceed 120mph (maybe the cups two/three car lenghs down at 120mph but that doesnt confirm a roasting) by then the nxt corner should be in view.Quote: Originally posted by Adams_16v on 16 March 2005
well all i can say is iv gone from a 205/ton 2.0 mk1 clio that ran mailto:14.1@york">14.1@york (and mailto:14.3@pod">14.3@pod) to a 276 bhp wrx scooby doo thats run mailto:13.3@pod">13.3@pod
off the mark the clio wouldnt have a prayer providing the scooby was on boost. but once rolling in 2nd the clio would have given it a very good run for its money up to 90/100 for sure! but up to 60 the scooby should be in front. the wrx is down as 4.9secs to 60 in standard trim. i timed the clio as 6 seconds exactly to 60 (on the clocks) thats fully stripped out to the max.
top end the scooby fookin flies, and will do 150 no probs, but the clio also pulled like a mofo up to the limiter at 134.
4x4 can take a good 0.5 off the 1/4 mile time, and the torque above 80mph is what makes the difference, but there is transmission loss, and extra weight.
If i were lined up at pod next to my old clio, I would be crappin it lol
Low 14s in a front wheel drive car is a very respectable time if you ask me!

Has no-one noticed Neils in front by the end of 2nd gear?? 2nd gear in most cars equates to around 62mph.
Does that tell you the scooby driver is a numpty nuts or neils car is capable of a sub 5 sec 0-60 run??
Let me wonder?? Hmmmmm???
Drivers, not cars, is all that is shown here!!
And Neil wants to get himself down south as i guarantee that 14.18 would easily be 14.5 at the pod.
If I remember right my reaction time was like a second better than his on that run, explains why i beat him off line. I raced the guy three times and one time he stuffed me off the line but I took him at about 90! Just out of interest my pals 250 hp + (conservative estimate!) cavy turbo does 13.4 1/4 mile but I can stay right with him till 120 (where i stopped)and pull on him 30-90. Cant wait to see what my Cup will be like with 200 hp +!![]()
neither can i go for it m8.
