Will it do 60 in 2nd? If not there is a 2nd gear change to take into account. Probably not. It's a 4 speed auto, it likes to be in 3rd before it gets to 60.. -- Pete M - OMF#9 BMW 325i SE Touring Range Rover V8 Turbo "Wait! We can't stop here, this is Bat Country" |

... Yeah, yeah, you've all seen it before, put plug the numbers in again and see what it spits out. My Golf is so low powered and heavy that it falls off the bottom of the chart, so I added some power and took some weight off. ( added 3bhp, took off 40kg) The numbers actually seem quite accurate. Golf Ragtop - as slow as a week in the jail. Zzzzzzzzzz...... snip Bob's figures In time honoured fashion, your turn. Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 197 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1200 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 166.80 0 - 60 (Secs) : 6.55 0 - 100 (Secs) : 16.79 60 - 100 (Secs) : 10.25 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 14.95 Terminal Speed (MPH) : 94.35 Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 14.75 Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 96.00 About bang on tbh. Evo have 0-60 as 6.4, 0-100 in 16.1, (backed up by experience of a few forum owners) but close enough. The gearing is a lot shorter than most things through the range which might explain it I guess. -- Dan Clio R27 F1 #65 |

But I've been a bit off colour, and now it's getting a new front bumper on an insurance claim. They say it'll be cleaned inside and out as well :-) -- Dan Clio R27 F1 #65 |

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 197 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1200 1200 KG ??!!!!! For a Clio ? That's shocking, don't you think ? Golf GTI MK1 for comparison.
