[jasc1988]

Did they test the right car?

[jasc1988]

Duno, mines is mapped aswell.

Porsche in reverse maybe

[Snoopie]

*** spanked? Eh? I might get my mate to log on with his Porsche Boxster S.

I pull on his very easy

I believe people say between 20-40mph on a boxster 1.8, the 130 PD's torque matches it. Given the right circumstances, it's probably true... but then you'll get hammered out of that band.

And which Porsche Boxster uses a 1.8 engine? :rofl::rofl:

I think you'll find there shouldn't be any Fabia vRS vs .... threads.

Although you keep ignoring the rules...

Never mind.

I was tootling up to a roundabout t'other day and some small knobbed young man rammed himself up my exhaust pipe in his impreza

I prayed and prayed it was the 2.0 non turbo lame duck model.

Imagine my dismay as he stayed 2 inches from my bumper up to 70 and then flew by, STi stickers attached :(

[Skodaboy1983]

I've just had a good weekend blasting the vRS along the country roads of fife and boy have I missed that accerlation with doing 300 miles town driving.

Both Porsche and Skoda have exactly the same type of acceleration which is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.

HTH

I always pray for that aswell

Theres actually one in my town, stickered up to the Maxx with 555 racing stickers... Doesnt have a bonnet scoop though... which would lead me to believe its the non - turbo.

I will bide my time

[WW_VRS]

Just lucky the local plod didnt catch him doing that then..

[skudmissile]

What is it with all this racing around, i dont know you young uns

[ultra_joel88]

its not racing... its acclerating-at-full-speed-away-from-a-roundabout-hoping-you-manage-to-stay-in-front-then-slowing-down-again-if-you-manage-to-get-to-75-first

Yeah it's not racing, its called slip roading... Arent you going for 200bhp :confused:, what will you be doing with that may i ask??

[jasc1988]

Oh and to add this 'race' occured when an A road changed to a dual carriageway, the flow of traffic was held up behind a tractor... when the tractor turned off the dual carriageway began and so did the fun

Did the tractor win?

[Snoopie]

Did the tractor win?

The race was between the vRS and the tractor. When it got into high speeds, the tractor slowly pulled away.

I was driving the tractor.

[ScoobyChris]

I think the quote was along the lines of the vRS having more torque than a Boxster. Sadly they're only talking about peak torque rather than the amount of torque delivered across the rev range where the Porsche wins hands down.

Did give a Boxster S a pasting in the Scooby though

I've had some great battles with a few different Porsches on the Nurburgring. I think it all comes down to who's the biggest idiot. My technique is to reach the first bridge, disengage my brain, then floor it!

[clidgevrs]

auto express mapped there fabia test car to 170bhp and in 6th gear 50-70 take 0.4s less than a porsche which is highly impressive and tested by them!!!

[Snoopie]

My technique is to get in front, and then apply the brakes for the rest of the lap, making sure there are no overtaking opportunities.

What does the black flag mean?
