Agree, I want a car that could break traction at 200 mph if I planted my foot. Anyway - back on topic - the 205, as it has slicks (and presumably he'll have gone to the trouble of getting crinkle-wall drag slicks) will potentially get in the high 11's. You really shouldn't win if he gets a half decent launch and doesn't lunch the gearbox, which is however a very real possiblility with that much grip. Maybe you'll get him on a technicality and he'll forget his helmet and not be able to run?

Coupes can generally get the power down very well, and given that Johnny will be in the region of 420-440bhp he will have a significant power advantage. This is enough to be putting out sub 12.5 with 118mph terminals on road tyres. If it really is game on then we can go to close on 500bhp with some nice drag tyres which will make a sub 12 possible and 120mph+ terminals, of course a head to head is all about the launch wink
Well this is in your hands Leighton.You know whats at stake here.Plus i work with him everyday and will never live it down. You best pm me the addy to send this cyl head i have got to you then so we can make a start. So... is Johnny willing to risk breaking it to ensure victory? laugh
definately. Ontop of this whats the best slicks for this launch.?

I like the fact that when I first made this post ,400bhp for mine and 350 for yours. Several years later and still not raced down the pod side by side with over 1200bhp between them.
