Not sure on my quarter miles yet (last time I was at the Pod, had just had a new clutch in, and opted to take it easy, so going down the strip was out). But whatever I get, I'm hoping for around 20 seconds ish from 62bhp (last RR day figure).

17.5 s 1/4 mile in the green GT I had. That was with 93 bhp (i think) rr'd at stealth. Only been on the pod once.

Next year will be much better. I'm rebuilding the engine in my black one with a flowed head and other little bits. Oh and my blue GT will be about, too.

In the 120bhp (at rolling road day aldon) G40 I got 15.8 at santapod which I think was pretty good. as it was full of chinchilla cages

the golf is another story 230bhp and 14.1 at the moment, it was 14.7 when standard so it should go a bit faster on a good run it should get a high 13.

I've seen some type-r's getting 14.9 standard and only flat 14's when it's supercharged.

it's an area where a lot of additional power can only sligtly improve your time. bhp/ton is not going to be a big advantage if you cant lget traction off the line. I'm sure one of the 180bhp g40's can only get 14.2 or 14.3.
