After seeing the following list:

911 993 Cab : 181 bhp per tonne
R32 skyline GTR : 193 bhp per tonne
E46 M3 : 220 bhp per ton
E39 M5 : 230 bhp per ton
M3 E46 - 218 bhp per ton
M3 CSL E46 - 234 bhp per ton
r32 - 160 bhp per ton
Porsche 911 c2 - 234 bhp per ton
Porsche 911 turbo - 272 bhp per ton
Audi RS6 - 244 bhp per ton
Audi RS4 - 234 bhp per ton
Audi TT 3.2 - 164 bhp per ton
Ferrari 575M - 298 bhp per ton
E92 M3 : 244 bhp per tonne
Audi R8 V8 : 265 bhp per tonne
Audi R8 V10: 320 bhp per tonne
E46 M3 CSL : 266 bhp per tonne
R35 Skyline GTR : 271 bhp per ton
911 997 GT3 : 297 bhp per ton
Ferrari 430 : 326 bhp per tonne
McLaren Merc SLR : 348 bhp per ton
997 GT2 : 363 bhp per tonne
McLaren F1 : 501 bhp per ton
Bugatti Veyron : 509 bhp per ton

And being quite surprised at some of the bhp per tonne figures.

Thought we'd start a leaderboard thread for just scoobys, should be interesting, given the list above.

Please List Mods and estimated weight if you dont know exactly.

I think this layout would be ok.

Now then eggy! Excellent stuff!

I am sat in work rocking in my chair till 5.30pm when I set off to pick it up! Could be anything between 400-450, would like to think the higher end of the scale! Shame its raining as I quite liked it in one piece!

I will report back to you when I have battered Wakefield Road for a while!

The newer R35 (2011 onward) have quite a bit more power and are nearer to 315bhp per ton along with over 450lb ft

Good idea - how about a torque per tonne leaderboard as well? That could be interesting, as said above sometimes the bhp per tonne doesn't show the whole picture

I do wonder why we use smilies, when people tend to blatantly ignore them and the context they can help to provide.

Apologies in that case.

However you have to agree that weigt reduction is important in gaining a performance advantage. That said the newer machinery seem to have the transmission advantange! We need a cheap sequential clutchless gearshift system for Imprezas.

Andy Carr has guestimated about 420bhp on mine, curb weight is 1249 (lost a kilo in aircon removal

)

Type-rob Engine 2.0 - Turbo MD312t -BHP per ton 420 / 1249 = 336.26 BHP per ton

Ten more than an F430 then

How do you work the results out? Is there a site you can calculate up?

I'm half tempted to ask my local tip if I cna jump on the scales for a print out of the weight too.

your hp / weight x 1000 = power to weight.

guestimate of mine 380/ 1150 = 330.
