thebrasso dont you have a 1.8VTI?..............you should be looking at about 15.5 and a terminal spead of around 96-98mph......the good ole 2nd gear kills it :mad:

Aye, I do. Not sure because I've not tried launching much. I think I'd need to practise that a bit.
 
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! You folks are talking about blowing the 1/4 mile in less time than it takes for my Toyota to get to 60mph!! ROFLMAO!!! :p :D
 
a guy on another forum with a tuned vrs fabia broke a driveshaft at the pod in the last couple weekends. you would have expected a FF car to just wheelspin, but clearly thats not the case, you can easily break things (360lbft prolly helped too) lol
 
I don't have any launching problems in my Fiesta, no wheelspin (yet anyway, haven't tried hard) :p
~13s 0-60, don't think 1/4 time would be great:)

lol how on earth did he manage that. He must have sidestepped the clutch or it was just weak to begin with

Probably didn't load the drivetrain and so snapped the shaft with the massive impulse of torque.
