I'm just saying in 3rd / 4th / 5th / 6th it's not quick enough / powerful enough to be spinning up in the dry. I just thought by you saying....'yeh. Not that quick'. But i get it now, you were refering to POW's post :thumbs: :thumbs: no prob bud :)

That saxo just shows it accelerates through first coulpe of gears quick because it weights as much as a toy car [Edited on 20-01-2008 by richc]

	That ibiza must be undrivable.

	mine has well over 200 lb ft of torque as standard, 230lb ft to be precise, so if thats got 200bhp its lively to have 310 +
Paul_J	posted on 20th Jan 08 at 20:48
	To be fair, for that to be 200 bhp, it must have well over 200 lb ft of torque too :\| off the line i think the vts would still have it, but pretty obvious what the results are gonna be after leaving the start line with that much bhp + torque. [Edited on 20-01-2008 by Paul_J]

	model dervs are no where near as smokey as that TDI. The owner has mapped it to 200bhp... I cant quite remember the techy reason of this... but it often results in a trail of rain cloud coming from the back. I think it would be a fairly even race from 0-40 between the TDI and VTS but after that the VTS will start to see a cloud of smoke

	pmsl, just looks like the saxo is chasing a rain cloud down the m'way :lol::lol:

	derv power :D :thumbs: all that smoke suggests the ibiza is mapped... or the owner added a clever smoke screen device ;) [Edited on 20-01-2008 by Gavin]
