Your acceleration times?
Hey guys... out of interest i am wondering if you guys would like to post your 0-100km/h times and you 1/4 mile if you know it as well as any modifications you have done to the vehicle. Please include model, year of manufacture and transmission type. Thanks guys.

Hi asps91, welcome to the club.
Perhaps you would be best off using the search feature of the forum before creating new topics such as this.
The information you seek is already here, in threads such as http://ftoaustralia.com/modules.php?nam ... pic&t=3850
The 0-100 time for our cars is somewhat (very) irrelevant really because a) it's nothing special and b) these cars weren't designed just for going in straight lines. However, take a look at http://ftoaustralia.com/modules.php?nam ... light=0100.

going for a 14.7 on the 10th of february i'll let you know how it goes and i still only have air filter/extractors/exhaust and just drivetrain mods. 
my best 60' time was a 2.1 and it pulled my head back with a force that i wasnt expecting but i only changed at 7.5k instead of 8k on that run and did a 14.8... same as a previous run with a 60' of 2.2 and changing at 8k.... ..but launching on the 1/4 is nothing like launching on the road, hte track on a 1/4 is pretty grippy thats why you can drop it at 5k+ and still be able to go forwards
