So have any of you guys downloaded the Horse Power calculator of the main seatcupra.net page yet?

I downloaded it today and input my details :

Weight = 946kg (official SEAT weight)
Best 0-400m time (Im assuming this is a 1/4 mile) = 16.9seconds

BHP = 111

Be interested to know what sort of figures the rest of you have got.

Where did you get the quarter mile time from?

I ran it last year (about April) at the first round of the Max Power Club shootout at Yorkdragway.

I got in to the final in my category but was beaten by 0.1 secs by a feckin Nova!

That will do nicely. Must have been a tailwind behind the nova!!!

The ******* thing had great big feckin throttle bodies on it where as my car was still standard apart from an induction kit. Plus the guy i was racing against managed to get the fastest reaction time of anybody during the whole day.

That was predictable! He drives a nova reactions are paramount when going to the shops
