Just got bored a min ago as it was one of the same old simpsons on that theyve repeated in my lifetime about 60 times! So i decided to go out for a moors blast now she's lost some weight...

What can i say, this car is Soooooo fun to drive!! Really do love it!!

Had a couple of blast with the gtech aswel -

Did a quick 1/4 (hit the limiter twice aswel -:oops: -

And a 0-60 blast now i have new tyres and its easier to grip!

no offence but even stripped that o-60 time seems v exagerated, even a frs would struggle to do that and thats gona get a massive jump from standing

0-60 does seem fast, was that one a fluke or has it read under 6 secs more than once ??

It ranges. That is one of the quickest i've had but tbh i never really try that often. Seen 5.97 and normaly very low 6's

As or them not being accurate, where did you get that from? Theyre not 100% but people have gone down the pod with them and they have been within 0.1 of a sec!!

As for what has been done - Chip with raised limit to 7k, filter, decat and exhaust, manifold and a few other bits and pieces. It made 144bhp atw which is about 171 at the fly.

Its going on the RR again on sat
