my mates FQ340 MR will still sit behind my mates IHI ibiza cupra and trust me the FQ400 doesn't weight that much more then the ibiza

What is it stage1 IHI because if he's claiming stage3 his car it not performing right.

Mr320 Vs my car which at the time was down 30-40whp when it went on at Awesome in the New year after v-max when it was not running right. So i believe what has been said my car did 300bhp @ the fly at Awesome Custardcupra with same spec did 338bhp @ the fly. So i dusted a mr320 with ease with 300bhp. I have seen of Fq400's, i almost bought one but people put me off.

I've read the stories all over scoobynet and the lancer reg. They're great! :D Love it.

Its rare these days as most people know the cars and know what they can and cant do. We get on well with the scooby lot across the board but its fun to have the odd little leg pull with them. Fact is i dont think the evo's/scoob are strightliners anyway unless there designed to do it. I can quite easily see a 280-300bhp ibiza matching maybe even being quicker than a stock mr340 Evo. A mapped up basic modded 400bhp mr would no doubt be a diff matter. I dont mind Evo's/scoobs but its a case of reality and physics.

340bhp ibiza say 1150kgs
340bhp Evo 1400kgs

Take into account the weight diff the transmission loss regardless of what it is. Which we know the evo has more of than the Ibiza the Ibiza will produce more bhp @ the wheels and its lighter. Theres no way the Evo will win in a stright line rolling drag the facts above simply cant allow it to happen physically unless the Ibiza is not producing its power ie unhealthy down on power.

im not one of these "my remapped cupra blows the door off ferrari" people.
the car was fooking quick and my ibiza scares me on full chat (well 60%)and he wasnt gaining and i wasnt pulling away.
the evo looked very intimidaiting rear view lifting like linford christie but he didnt get by.i have £5500 in my ikkle ibiZa so 1-0 melol

Theres your answer then, the evo wasn't 'very quick', your just both really slow...

/jokes

To be fair tho, how did you know he was really trying, i know i wouldnt overtake a car that was breaking the speed limit already unless it was extra safe to do so. Especially if that car was a jumped up shopping trolley (from evo driver's viewpoint). It's not worth the risk of pushing other people who's abilities/willingness to die to win are unknown.

i understand where your coming from im no strret racer but couldnt resist the offer:cry:

belive me he was trying i know this cos i were giving it my best and he wasnt going anywhere,power to weight law states he were trying.....

fook the badge and price tag it all comes down to power to weight and i would happlily have another go on a straight line as he would kill me on corners,but then i havent pumped money into corners i like embarresing boxters etc on motoways:)

End of the day im sure you would choose to have that Evo over your Ibiza. Had a VI and I dont see how you can even try and compare an Ibiza to a Evo!!!!! Some people love their cars a little too much!!!!

too bloody true mate but then i cant afford a 30k mitsi hence the ibiza.
if i did have the 30 k mitsi i wouldnt be too pleased about the shitty little ibiza in front........IN FRONT
