Astra VXR surprised the hell out of my!!

Recommended Posts

In sticking with the thread topic*, I know I mentioned like an SL earlier etc... but for rough power and keeping pace, can anyone name the 'fastest' or what people might perceive as a faster car. Like just having a think... a Porsche 911 from a certain year? An old old 80's Ferrari (doubtful lol) but you get the picture. What kinda 'surprising' stuff could the Zed... not beat but hold it head up high with? Any suggestions?

 

 

*(Infact ths should be in the other 'league' thread that's up actually but meh...similar...)

I feel on here we are more realistic about how quick our car is though. On other forums they just seem to think they can beat everything!

 

The DE Z has the most torque and I hear it wins drag races against the HR haha

I like it when I surprise the bigger cars, m3's, rs4's, new porches and a Ferrari 458 I come across, his face was priceless :lol:

 

Totally agree!!

I Seem to find that a lot of Sh1t slow cars always seem to try and race it's just disappointing lol

0-60 is pretty much irrelevant imho, it may be great for pub willy waving but in reality how often do you get a chance to go from 0 to 60? Adding into the mix having to get it absolutely spot on to achieve published figures, a 0 to 60 dash with anything close is always going to be a 50/50 chance of winning if you ask me.

 

Anything that is a quoted as 6 seconds or under is fast and once your down to below 4 or 5 seconds its all down to clever traction or launch control systems that are way more advanced than our 10 year old designed 350's electronics :) There will also be a very very clever diff in that Astra allowing for 276hp to be put down through the front wheels!

 

But it is just that, an Astra, which blends into obscurity on the roads and on his driveway.
