310 bhp SCOOBY
Just played golf with a guy who had a 310bhp scooby (rr'd). Had a race with him out of 2 roundabouts along the dual carraigeway and mine was a bit quicker both times. Hes gutted and wants to sell it now
Re: 310 bhp SCOOBY

Which scooby was it?
My old 300bhp type R, was a total beast. not a lot of things would have beaten it. 4 secs to 60! and cornered like it was on rails.

Was anybody sitting on it? Or was it parked? Maybe going the other way?
He wasn't trying mate.

Re: 310 bhp SCOOBY
It was coming off a medium sized roundabout, I was on the power loads earlier than he was though, left him for dead in the rear view mirror - he started to catch up once he got moving but then dropped back once the speed got well into 3 figures - i can assure he as was definitely trying

Re: 310 bhp SCOOBY
Bikes aren't all that. A friend of mine has a new Z750 and we had a play the other day. Again, up to 3 figure speeds, he couldn't keep with me.
As for the scooby, it depends on where the 310bhp was measured, if it was at the flywheel, the they must have a substantial transmission loss on them??

Re: 310 bhp SCOOBY
My mate has just put his uk 2005 sTi in for the 305bhp prodrive upgrade because my MR2 was faster than it it std 265bhp spec.
So I wonder what will happen now?
I'm 263bhp 243lb/ft, @ John Nobles 1330kgs
He will be 305bhp 299lb/ft, 1470kgs
I think it will be very close........

Re: 310 bhp SCOOBY
I'd put my money on the 2 there, but it would be very close. There would probably only be a nose in it.
To the chap whose mate is getting the STi upgrade pack (or PPP), i hope he is getting it for free as last week in autocar, it was announced that subaru were giving a PPP upgrade to STi's and an STi upgrade to WRX's due to the launch of the Mitsi Evo IX

From a standing start, the scooby.
On the twisties, the scooby.
everything else the Mr2.
Of course, this is all depending on which scooby it is?

If you're referring to my post
MR2 1330kg 270bhp@f/w (243lb/ft)
STI PPP 1470kg 300bhp@f/w (299lb/ft - ouch)
At the wheels I'm not sure.
