rob, full interior?

Mine was 15.1 which I thought was alright for my first go on the strip (in feb). I was told some shit about they havent laid down some sort of crap on the strip yet...if there is truth in that I dunno. I'm happy with a 15.1

torque is a funny one to get you'r had around. torque is the actual 'thing' used to measure the power of the engine isnt it? because its like the rotational force produced or something? so torque is more about acceleration. like a massively torquey engine would have no problem pulling a heavy ass car sorta thing. am i close?

For a write off I was more than happy with 15.3 Mine had full interior and all my sounds so it's how it would perform on a daily basis.

the importance of torque is all down to the type/weight of the car and what its used for.

for example, my corsa on tb's will quite often be beaten off the line easily by a big heavy golf tdi. but after about 1/8 of a mile I will fly past it with ease.

and theres the point of where in the rev range an engine delivers the torque. low down will make for a good daily road car, higher up is more suited to a light racy car.
