There's alot of contributing factors towards these times though. Driving style, the weather plays a massive part, even things like how much petrol you have in the tank can make a difference.

1.4 sport with filter and decat exhaust. All the usual crap like interior, half full of fuel etc. Just your normal road going car with alot of miles

I was shocked too - I think it was over fuelling quite a bit but I'm not sure if that would make any difference.

well i dont think my car is capable of doing any quicker than a 16.7. I had the launch pretty much as perfect as you can get in a 120k car Clutch was still pretty strong, i rekon with out interior and less fuel maybe 16.5 but i dont think the car is phisically capable of going any quicker!
