All that plastic stuck to the front of it will probably slow you down though...

i dont get how people can time ther cars using anything otehr than proper timing equipment, GPS or speed traps. stopwatchs and phones are just a load of balls when it comes to timing speed imo.

About 13/14 seconds for mine I think? (I drive a 1.1!)
Havn't timed it with a stopwatch or anything, my mate just used the second hand on his wrist watch not too long back... Got there about 13 but i'll say 14 due to the innaccurate timing, and I know my car is slow as shit anyway lol so don't really have anything to brag about!

The g-meter is accurate to withing 0.2 seconds, or 1.3mph on a speed trap test.
Its made by the same people as the driftbox, and they use that for practice in D1. So it must be rather good.
I'm excited about seeing the results, but i best let Andy drive, i'll be well off the pace lol
