PCoty times where are you guys the Ls1 boys have been on it all night.
Do people think the GT times are a bit disappointing they took it back to Lang Lang with a Ford test driver to get better times which some people are jumping up and down about.
Some interesting times posted:
SV8:
0-100km/h: 6.05s
0-400m: 14.03s (166.0km/h)
0-1000: 25.24s (212.7 km/h)
Top speed: 259km/h
Winton lap: 1m 45.37s
Monaro CV8:
0-100km/h: 6.06s
0-400m: 14.30s (162.6km/h)
0-1000: 25.70s (209.2 km/h)
Top speed: 270km/h
Winton lap: 1m 43.69s
HSV GTS:
0-100km/h: 5.24s
0-400m: 13.36s (177.8km/h)
0-1000: 23.83s (231.5 km/h)
Top speed: 275km/h
Winton lap: 1m 43.44s
HSV Maloo R8:
0-100km/h: 6.10s
0-400m: 14.30s (160.6km/h)
0-1000: 25.81s (207.7 km/h)
Top speed: 256km/h
Winton lap: 1m 44.91s
XR6T:
0-100km/h: 6.24s
0-400m: 14.35s (160.2km/h)
0-1000: 25.90s (202.2 km/h)
Top speed: 234km/h (speed limited)
Winton lap: 1m 46.28s
Significant events:
- SV8 was very tired at the end of the test day (tires rooted and hot engine meant slower times.
- CV8 top speed of 270km/h was surprisingly good, so was the Winton lap time.
- HSV GTS developed power steering problems
- Maloo R8 aerodynamically not as good as those above.
- XR6T - great performer despite the 'average' times - it got 3rd overall for PCOTY.
In a separate story on Motor...
The GT was tested. Motor managed a best time of 6.14s (0-100km/h) and 14.42s (0-400m).
As was the case with Wheels, they weren't happy with the times so they went to the Ford proving ground and handed the car to one of their engineers who posted the car's best performance times... the result was 5.81s (0-100km/h) and 14.06 (0-400m).
