Had a blast against one, pulled a couple of car lengths to 60 and up to 110 it had droppped half a dozen back - beyond 2nd i didnt really pull that quickly away.

Anyone had a blast with one.

I've never come across one. They were billed as a 'mini evo' though, doesnt sound like it quite lives up to it :?

Same power as the Williams but they weigh nearly 100 kilos more. Sounds like they're not too shabby for a warm hatch. :)

I would imagine the torque to be significantly more though due to the turbo which would prob reel me in at higher speeds?

Ive never had many races and its hard to gauge what 'spanking' another car equates to - as i wouldnt say i killed it but it was a fair few car lengths behind. What would an estimated 6-8 car lengths be in seconds roughly? Being from 20-100mph.

155lb-ft apparently, so yeah, that'll help it. As for time/gap, that's one for the quarter mile boys! Six to eight lengths is quite a lot though - almost a second?
