[s-cars] Urs4 1/4 mile times

Wow !

and how about that little 1.8 running 114mph !  Amazing !!!

I had a ride in Tims car last time I was up at NEA and it really is amazing. Off the line is exceptional but where that car really scared the crap out of me was when it was moving. Tim took me for a short highway burst. MAN, O-MAN !!!  I gotta get me some of that....

Bob, just curious. Have you ever had the good fortune to drive in any of the stroker motor cars Tims done for customers.  Tim says his car is a dog compared to them.... WTF?

Tom.

Last week, Tim McClean of Northern European Automotive in Concord NH ran his
UrS4 at NE Audi's "Audi Eliminator" drag race.  His best ET was 13.499 and
his high MPH was 103.6. The results are posted here:

The car has the following mods:

RS2 Turbo
RS2 EM
RS2 injectors
RS2 MAF
Northern European Automotive Lightweight Flywheel/Clutch
Software -- (Bill M knows!)
& a Stock Exhaust.


Using some of the ET/MPH calculators out on the 'net, and assuming 4K lbs.,
this translates to about 340 HP at the wheels.  Applying the 18% driveline
loss I've seen posted here, and you've got 400HP from this little 2.2.
Whether the HP numbers are right or not, I don't care.   Many years ago, my
67 GTO ran 13.99 at 101, and I thought I was hot shit.   Miss Piggy with
only 2.2l running a sub 13.5 is something to be proud of.
