And...if you lie...Well, your lying to yourself....

Wonder what your cossie lump would do in a proper car Dingy?
Look at those trap speeds...and then at the times.
I think you'd do a lot better with some decent rear wheels mate.

Best so far for me is
Avon Park Speedway
14.39secs. mid speed 76.79.
Car was quick enough but my reaction time was slow 1.844secs, cos I`m too old.
Timed elsewhere 0-60mph 4.74secs
MY98 Wagon
Blitz induction
De-cat
Lightened flywheel

My Renault 5 turbo done a 13.01 @ 112mph at Ultimate Street Car 2000, pinked its nuts off at 30psi, then blew the head gasket.
The Evo 6 has only ever managed a 13.4 @ 118 standard.
I seen a man in a go kart do a 9 second run last year!
His name was Tony something. Also seen a twin engined Renault 5 do an 11.9 quarter at the pod.

14.1 in my Astra GTE (Normaly Aspirated) at SantaPod.
Just rebuilt the engine and added around 20bhp so should be well into the 13s next year. (also did and will be doing other things too).
Can anyone beat that for a FWD 2.0 NA road car?
