Ive raced 2 hatchback st170's now 1 in my skoda fabia vrs that was a very close one, the other was in my zafira gsi not so long ago and totally wiped his arse. 
 
Unsure were that 0-60 for the st has come from but at Elvington there was no way they were getting anywhere nr mid 6's poss mid to late 7's at the most.

That 0-60 is very wrong! the ST170 does 0-60 in 7.9..!!!!!!!!

0-60 time looks more in the Focus RS leagues, than the ST  .   
 
*Not actually sure what the RS 0-60 time is, but im just comparing it with the similar time of a CTR being 6.6*

yeh wtf??? 0-60 in 6.5 secs? the HATCH BACK St170 does 0-60 in like 7.8/7.9 secs! and the ESTATE I'd imagine is heavier and slower!

There was a honda CRV in front of me today, as soon as he saw me in his rear view mirror he booted it?   
 
I followed and overtook it, expecting to anhilliate him but it was more of just cruising past, think my impreza is fcuked.

i love the behaviour my car provokes in people, white vans trying to keep up, people booting their cars as soon as they see you, and people generally not letting you out of junctions etc unless they are in a decent performance car.
