Having read all the above, I am really unsure what to think about some of the results.

To put it in perspective, a stage 2+ TFSi Cupra with a semi reasonable start managed 13.6 @ 109.8mph at Crail and that is a strip which everyone claims unusually high terminal speeds, yet at the pod, a stage 0.75 Cupra (Revo trial map) managed over 110mph terminal speed :confused:

Also, despite non perfect starting conditions loads of other cars that are running 30bhp less than the stage 2+ Cupra manage to match the 1/4 mile time despite having slower 60 foot times :confused:

My head hurts  :jumping:
Which Cupra ran 110mph Al? The only Seat I saw run 110mph was a Mk3 Modded stipped Ibiza Cupra.  :confused:

I was rubbish..Could,nt get under 15.4....My starts sucked,even jumped the green at one point..My bloody nephew in his polo kicked my ass..again!!!!,,Console myself by watching him do a MKIV R32.

Stayed till the death when the track was empty.

Good fun...I need a map.

Great seeing you all but still dont know who is who. :embarrassed:

No wonder the guy in the Rocco' was getting good launches! He must have been up the strip 30 times  :surprised:

Does anyone know the owner??, yes he got off to a flyer and couldnt make ground :smiley:
although i was only launching at 1800rpm all day, kept the rev's down to try and stop spinning.I think if id of launched at higher rpm, then my times may well have been better.


he is CTRNutter on Scirocco Central, see you've joined  :happy2:

i think they are both revo stage 2 which is why its so astonishing, even Neil's reaction time was quicker then bens.
Didnt ben remove his back seats against Neil from an earlier duel with you jonny?

Sorry, just spotted it..

Neil has AMD and Ben has Revo stage 1.. Or is it 2?

Thats part of the difference there.. Also Ben has TD wheels, which certainly make a difference, more than you would think!.. Ben's car really is a strong car from standard though, considering it only has a map etc..
