14.74@100.3mph
Lost a lot of time getting off the line though - that'll be sorted now with my LSD and the diet the car's been on. Looking for low 14's (to start with)

HE HE
im running a F16 WR box as do a lot of mileage and like to have a nice low revving moter on the motorways.
at 7000rpm
1st=39 mph
2nd=68 mph
3rd= 104mph
4th= 149 mph
5th=187 mph LOL
but know that these are right as in fifth the car will do 83 on the speedo at 3k rpm and have been pulled on the M5 for speeding and was shown at 81 mph, my speedo was around the 84 mph mark.
if only I had the power to redline in 4th and fifth LOL.

0-60 is not the be all and end all of a cars performance Patrick
30-70
