I'm working on a new factory site at the moment so have access to 1 1/2 mile un-opened road which will open when the estate does. Yesterday & today i decided to have a 0-60 blast in the safety of a clear road. I waited to get upto mid-temp before trying then went from complete standstill to 65/66 on the speedo to compensate for speedo differences. I did 3 runs and got the following
1st- Yesterday lunch time = 7.72
2nd Yesterday afternoon/evening = 7.32
3rd Today lunchtime = 7.51
Now im no boy racer and soon slowed before leaving the empty road of course, but i noticed on run 1 & 3 i let the 2nd gear run over a bit so probably lost a few tenths however run 2 i nailed the change throughout. This car is far quicker than it's 8.2 second ''official'' time. My car has done 2,776 miles from new.
Just though it might interest somebody
