    Check my badass 0 - 60

    Thought I'd hide this in here, away from Chip and his amusing-unless-they're-in-your-direction comments. lmao

    I was bored. And I feel I must apologise now for the awful quality of this video.

    Having said that, you can clearly see 0, and you can clearly see when I get to 60. Even if my speedo is out (which I would put money on it that it is), it's not a bad time for an oil burner.

    I took it to about 4200rpm in first, and it spun a wheel when I put it in second, but the rest were change up and just catching the bottom of where the turbo spools up.

    I could tell only from the sound, my windows media din't show any video only heard the the sound of your engine, so i could tell you weren't pushing it, I don't know why the media didn't show the picture and only the sound!

    9 seconds according to the video, but my speedo's bound to be out.

    Nope, A518 between Rugeley and Stafford, leaving the Punchbowl in the direction of Stafford.
