Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172

Today I had a little play with a Subaru Impreza WRX.
I was on my way to a friends when he got right up my trumpet and came flying past me! I got behind him at the lights on the slip road to the motorway and I knew he was gunna try n show me up. Little did he know he had a big shock coming! He floored it from the lights pulling away from me as the roads were a little damp and I was just spinning! Once we were rolling though and got to the top of the slip lane I floored it as he did and to my suprise it wasnt as fast as I was expecting. He stopped at the lights after the next junction at the side of me and put his window down. "What the f*ck have you done to that" he said, LOL! I said "its only a 1.2!" Him and his mate just laughed at me and said "No really" I told him what it was and asked what his was running - "just under 300" he said! I was mega impressed with the little Clio! This is why I love it!!!! :D

Roffle @ the undertake. Well played!
Can't wait to get more boost myself. I showed a guy in an Audi S3 up the other night and I was very impressed at how easy it was to fly past :D

We really need to do this boosted mini meet. I'd love to see what an SC'd Clio feels like in comparison.

Looks quick enough, although not all that suprising you went past him given Impreza's weigh near enough 1500kg.

300/1470 = 205bhp/ton
250/1100 = 227bhp/ton

My car probs is less than 1100kg is it not? No rear seats or rear plastics, and sound deadening removed from under carpets and engine bay. I was thinking more 1000kg's? Although what ive removed is not 100kg worth! :S

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172

They weigh more than the book figure suggests standard. No way of putting an accurate number on it without proper weighing equipment though. Rear seats weigh bugger all really, put them back in for a daily and enjoy the standardness!

Also, impreza was 2up, allow another 70/80kg or so for that = one lardy Impreza, no wonder he got humped!

In the wet I get LOTS! Spins thru 1st, 2nd and 3rd but I think that's probably down to the tyres I have on at the minute - there fecked! Lol. In the dry I get very little but when it's wet it's useless, I dare say a standard 172 would keep up with me upto top end of 3rd! Il let you know what it's like when I get my new tyres on next week!
