I see a lot of people quoting times and a lot of them are impressive.

Between 15 and 16 secs would be my estimate based on the times I achieved driving Alex's original Frog with circa 140bhp.

I don't think so. 13 seconds are harder than people think. Low 14's maybe.

Please don't think I'm trying to put anyone down- I'm really not- but with a full weight car and a 2.9:1 FD Matt Woods runs mid-13's with all the power he has. 13 secs really does take some doing.

Agreed, getting into the 13's takes some serious work.

I guess with 120bhp 14.6 at 98mph is good for 118 bhp then!. Chucked everything i could out of the car to run. So around 620kg.

There is certainly a knack to it. I drove Alex's frog and I think went 3 tenths quicker than he did. Plus I'm a fat cunt so theres hope for the larger gentleman yet!
