Lucky recorded a 4.97.

But, I think the fastest 0-60 now belongs to Specky in his tigra with road legal tyres. Something like 4.8 seconds.

Whether thats the fastest in the world, I very much doubt it.

230bhp, 380lb/ft, weighs around 1100kg. SQM in 13.5 (at bruntingthorpe) and 13.7s @101mph at Pod

Danny- just a pd150 hybrid turbo and mapped

also the other thing is its not setup for straight lines only either, it handles very well and still does 55mpg+

I was lucky enough to Drive Dave's (luckyB's) old corsa and it was great fun but when we were down and recorded that time it was awesome to see the figures

100% truth, hes going for more power too, which will improve the 1/4mile times too, 0-60 wont get any better unless he plays around with gearing

Just been reading a really good build thread on Edition38, of a Mk5 Golf GTi, which ran a 4.5 sec 0-60!

At last yrs Trax specky did a 4.something to 60.

There was a Mk3 Escort, 5 door , that did a 2.8 to 60. Cosworth powered.

To look at the car was nothing special, it was the ultimate sleeper.
