Parkers will give you all the "claimed" stats matey
It will depend which driver had the biggest s**t beforehand. thats how close it is between them up to 60.
There is a very tiny difference between any of them.

They're basically all around the 6.5 mark AFAIK. 172 is probably closer to 7, but I doubt you'd notice it on the road.
TBH to get anywhere near these times you have to RAPE the clutch anyway, so it will come down to how much you care about the car. My first few runs with my gtech (yo) were low 7 seconds. Some clutch burnage later, I got it down to 6.4.
Oh yeah and you have to change gear so fast you can't see your hand move. People forget all this when talking down the pub. It all comes down to the launch and gear change.
Thanks guys, my mate keeps on going on about how his 172 cup is faster to 60 than my 182 Trophy....
IIRC the 172cup is fastest, followed by the ph1 172. Evo did stats on all the cars they ran as long termers. I'd imagine the cup would be quicker, as it's lighter and has a softer set-up (more traction). But the difference will be so small, that it's who's willing to destroy their clutch/box that will win.
EVO say the Phase 1's claimmed o-60 is 6.6
Everyone will dispute this but then if you put them all in a straight line there would bt a cars length between them.
Too many mitigating factors, engine wear, miles, tyres, driver ability etc
This coupled with the fact that the 197/182 carry a weight deficit with not alot more bhp to compensate...!
Come will agree,some will say there 1*2 kills veyrons, but then that is the norm!
Then tell him he's an idiot. There would be nothing in it at all. Every run would be different.Originally Posted by Stphn1985
You think a few tenths of a second upto 60 is enough for a cars length ahead?
*edit*
Im not sure if that should say "would be.." or "wouldnt"
Plus the variability in RS engines. My ph2 172 was probably the quickest (of 5) that I've owned.
+1 to the gear change, so many people neglect this when wanting to accelerate quick.
I hate lauching my car though, scared of how the clutch will take it. Let my uncle have a drive and the clutch smell when we got back was ridiculous. At the lights, I like to let the clutch out quick with not too many revs, then full power. But if needs must, high revs it is.
The boxes do not deal with repeated standing starts well. It's the cheese used inside IIRC.
Cream cheese IIRC.
I would say 172 CUP
best I have managed was 6.25s measured with g-tech in my 172FF
197's are slow according to german magazines, only 7.6s to 62mph
probably down to tight engines
172FF.... nice
172ff four timed runs at 6.5 adv
Gtech's aren't very accurate though. I'd be surprised to see any of them regularly dropping below 6.5 without destroying the box.
This thread is going to be awesome. There WILL be 24h bannings all over the shop
Out of my ph2 Cup and the ph1 172 (with ktec stealth exaulst) the ph1 felt much quicker, and it definally pulled to the red line more happier than the cup does. At 7200 in the ph1 it was still going hard, where as the cup needs to be changed up before.
I used to hit the limiter in the ph1 quite often, never done it in the cup.
