Default 0-150 quick

http://www.voice-pro.pwp.blueyonder....20&%20Cars.htm

standing start to 150... timed from the video... the clock starts 8.5 seconds after the title screen plays when the speedo moves... even though its not timed with timing gear it still seems very quick to me...

i slowed it down and you can see the speedo better...

Dazza

When you reached 150 mph on your video, a light come up on the top of your dash. What did that indicate? I have never seen that before on my MY03 STi.

Thanks

Cool exactly 10 secs slower than a TVR Cerbera just a comparison you understand, still looks bloody quick though..

Have you tested your speedo with GPS as most speedo are 5 - 10% out when over 100mph

True, one of the bonnet retractable pins sheered on mine which meant that over 80 one side of the bonnet which is hinged from the front used to lift 4 / 5 inches

A little unnerving

After much debate on scooby net... the concencus of opinion is that its wind blowing through the inner door panals... i.e. the plastic liner to the door isn't sealed...

It took ages to work it out and then it clicked... it didn't do it b4 i swapped the speakers in the doors... eureka...


when i get some time i'll reseal the doors... only happens after 120 some not an everyday occurance....


ans to the light on the dash...-

...i put the headlights on full when the speedo read 155 it was at 6300rpm so i could see the end of the runway... thier was no reference point as to where to brake...

agree love TVR's and would like to take the plunge with a Tuscan S... MMMmmmmm

Although my m8 put me off a little with his cerbera... it seemed every time he took it out it broke... only had a couple of 20min blasts but a very very quick car... when it ran... he sold it after the electrics failed for the 4th time... was 18months old from a place in harrogate... I had a go in the wet and it was a death trap and it leaked... in the dry though awsome!
Not as quick as the scoob through the bends though..
