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
thats funny cos i just had a race with a white scooby and between 120kmh and 170kmh he had pulled in front of me..... now i want to sell mine and get something quicker

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.
Paul.
dont know to be honest. apart form its black with a big exhaust ans an import. He sais he had it rr'd at 310 bhp and mine wouldnt keep up, but i was pulling away slowly. He was not happy
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

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??

Nice 1! i know a bloke with a 10 and it's seriously quick! been clocked at over 180mph (by his mate in a TVR!)
i want your car!
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........
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

I'll let him know, he was having the work done today
i dislike scoobies immensely. my friend has a 450BHP Audi A4. looks almost standard aprat from the lowering and the nice alloys.
not much can touch it. he also owns a Noble GTO which he did the Gumball in last year, it gets all the looks but the Audi is faster
