You and your Clio

[Dash]

With a little reference to the "0-60 - What have u had?" thread. Does it really matter if 0 - 60 doesnt interest you in the least?

Please note I still enjoy a fast car and would love to reach 200 mph, but the 0-60 thing doesnt seem to hit my pleasure spot.

Your thoughts?

 

[docter fox]

the 0-60 figures might not but if you still like the feeling of acceleration then you cant be that far from normal, lol

 

[fUbAr]

if im honest, 50-100mph interests me a lot more.

 

[Dash]

Probably a tricky area but 130 ------> and losing the bloke behind does more for me.

I dont like the 0-60 thing either.

Much prefer the coming of an island at 30 in 2nd and booting it away

I find 0-60 or 30-70 or any lower end acceleration figures far more relevent than top speed. I get to do 0-60 or 30-70 at least 4 times a day, but how often do people really see >130mph?

 

[Caramel]

i prefer the 100-140+ club

 

[badinvincible]

I like 30-70.

And thats not the age group of women I go for.

0-60 doesnt bother me either. Would be far more interested on 30-70, 70-100 etc, but I dont have a gadget to measures those!!

 

[cli0 172]

30-70 for me .... prefer acceleration .... ove 100 does nothing for me

 

[clowo16v]

Ive been drag racing all my life so I prefer the acceleration, though top speed gives me a right adrenalin rush aswell.

See ya

0-60 is like over in a blink anyway. Get more of a kick out of dropping it down from 4-2/3 and booting it.

 

[Adams_16v]

0-60 is never gonna be a big one with FWD cars! thats the 4x4 boys favourite!

but anything 0-whatever is good with me! prefer from rolling tho, especially against the jap 4x4 turbo barges!

 

[M1TCH]

30-70 for me, not that ive got a good one, but I like my little pink license card, and intend on keeping it!

Have to agree with this, its great when you pull at these speeds and leave the 318 no indicators rep man in the mirror



Obviously on a private road

0-80 is the most fun, but also coming off roundabouts and flooring it

Anything much over 100 doesnt interest me, because I dislike risking my licence on some idiot in a BMW/GTI/Focus etc etc etc

 

[Ian_182]

I think if i had a skyline with 800 bhp then 100+ would do it for me.I could race bikes and stuff,but for now ill stick with my clio

[JayR]

I much prefer 70-120........Thats where it seems to happen for me!!!

 

[Leeshez]

I have done about 133 then is slowed down

 

[benhwolves]

def not a 0-... - up and running 50+ - far more fun!

 

[The Big Yin]

0-60 takes too long on my 1.4 but roundabouts and cornering at speed Hmm that where its at!!!

 

[MATT BLACK]

each to there own - one mans hate is another mans pleasure

0-60s are fun or even 0-100. Especially in a 2.0l 4x4 turbo or something similar!!

But to be honest the most fun in my car comes from second and third gear. I could probs live without the rest! lol

Top speed i.e over 130 is just boring imo
