Revo Technik VAG vs Ford Day 22nd September 2013!

[Hurdy]

VAG wins the 1/4 mile sprint, but that RS has a pretty good terminal speed. Another 20 yards and it would have been sailing by the 'Rocco!

Still........VAG Rules!

The Scirocco was near 200bhp down on the Focus!

I think it would have needed a bit longer to get by though - it was catching me by the end but not night and day difference!

Here was the shootout between the Revo Stage 4+ Focus RS vs the Revo Stage 3 Scirocco 2.0TSI

And the APR Stage 2+ coded Leon Cupra R against the same Revo Stage 3 Scirocco 2.0TSI. Quoted power and torque figures for both are similar.

The rs is more than 4+ i thought? It's the boy that owns sitech and its 500bhp+?

[djhorace]

Aye maybe it is. I thought Stage 4+. Maybe its stage 5. I spoke to him after the race and he said it dyno'd the previous day on either 555bhp or 655bhp - cant remember which.

[M7AXB]

Aye i'm sure its stage 5 (bigger turbo). Stage 4+ is around 425bhp. Not as quick as you would expect but, suppose its hard to get the power down

Thanks for getting the times up for me marky . Yeah I know a lad with a rs 400bhp and he reckons a stage 2+ ed30 would sit on the back of him all day long. As he got a stage 2+ ed30 after . Sound awesome the RS but just too heavy

Was there a heavy head wind with nobody in the 12's? Last time I saw that frs it was 580bhp, 4wd conversion needed I think! 

[djhorace]

There was a fair wind although i am not sure which direction it was blowing. You can hear it on the clips and with the flags and banners blowing.

Seems that most cars were 0.2 seconds slower than might have been expected.
