Whos got the quickest acceleration times!

[cK]

Id like to see this little dual between jesus and yoz's car. Video it for sure!

 

[Russ_16v]

i wanna see too lol

my old blue hybrid ran 5.8 0-60 and 14.4 quater mile

My current black car hasnt been 0-60 tested but ran 14.1

Considering the mods, yours has a full steel bottom end and race balance as well as extensive headwork and probably wilder cams. When mine is eventually rebuilt (as compression is 196 per cylinder currently so little point) you'd have to be seriously deluded to think it would even be remotely as quick. Whoever builds and tunes your cars for you isn't in the same league, you know it and I know it. For a simple straight power run driver skill wont be playing a part, your's will always be faster on track, it's a track car, but mine is a road car and daily driver and realistically only need to pick up 20bhp from those mods... between GDI and Omex only the most foolish or die hard sack swinger would not think this possible lol

blah blah f**king blah.

You have talking s**t down to a fine art my friend.

same as my old one matey,filter,exhaust and re map and i ran 2 14.1s@ 99 mph in 30 degree heat,god i wish i had waited till it was cooler (ie a few months later instead of selling her lol)

isnt anyone more interested in how quick they can cover a to b or lap a track,any numpty can go quick in a straight line,all it takes is power.On track though it doesnt matter what mods you have ,skill behind the wheel determines ultimately how fast you are.

I agree he does like the sound of his own keyboard sometimes

True, but we're not comparing drivers here, we're comparing cars. So keep the pointless posts to a minimum

I for one would like to see the result, I've seen some of TheJesus' videos against suspectingly superior cars, and the result always makes me chuckle

only pistons, I thought the spec was a little higher tbh... even so, they increase the compression and that's where most of the extra gains come from. That and headwork anyway.

I'm up for a mini meet soon anyway, need to get a spare weekend off work and you guys can bring the Cup to the pvt runway near me

I would love to see you get owned..

Vid of my clocks with rolling start from about 10mph.

I must thank the private land owner for letting me perform this test video on their private air field.

Slightly OT -
Has the rev limiter been raised slightly? or is that the revs you should be taking it to, to get the most out of the clio 182? mine doesnt seem as quick as that tho..

you'd have enjoyed me getting panned by an R34 GTS-T then the other day lol. thing was just chucking out constant flames that lasted about 5 seconds each time... I would have asked what it was running but it just fucked off lol

ok if were after pointless posts ,how about this one,pointless in the fact that its total bull.Owner reckons he can do 90 -100 in 5th in his oil burner in a couple of seconds ,yeah off a cliff maybe ,i reckon he should try it and film it ,ON A FLAT ROAD!


After 90 is pretty much the end of 4th in a DCI, you'll find 90-100 will take a good couple of seconds which could take it up to and past 20 seconds, which is slow, but pretty good for a 1.5 by any standards.

i agree......maybe i should borrow ur car for a weekend of get to know it time jon




il be careful.........honest lol



or maybe i should just throw the bodies back on the willy n have a run against both of ya


although to be fair...a quicker car, either in a straight line or on track will usually be the quicker car . especially when the specs are so massively different

 

[Clio_dci100]

lol am i the only one that thinks this thread is b****cks from start and most definately to finish?

looks like it

 

[Clio_dci100]

however, 50 - 80 in 3rd takes 5.5secs!! Thats more like it!

but how would you know?
this is the thing see, are all these ppl posting their times based on having some kind of proffessional timing equipment?
My clocks my not be that accurate ppl sayin 60 on clock isn't actually 60, but if manufacturer say 0-60 is 10secs and i time it the same to within say .5secs and do the same thing after ive chipped it and it shaves off 2seconds, hows that still inaccuate?

perhaps i'm missing the point but i'm stil timing to the same point under teh same conditions, just once before the mod and once after :s

true, and after a couple of laps in the GDI demo car it's amazing how bad mine is compared to it interms of handling especially... mine is deffinitely no track/race car, it's better at the straight line stuff and still well enough setup to outhandle a lot of Clio's, but track based cars are totally different. Spec for spec though, purely straigh line power tests it will be quicker than the YS one... I should be getting a couple more mods shortly too
